Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

This study focusses on the bond between asphalt and concrete. The bond is a decisive factor for the transfer of traffic loads. A lack of bond between the layers can quickly reduce the load-bearing behavior and thus lead to pavement failure. In the literature, the bond between asphalt pavements and concrete substrates is usually analyzed using mechanical test methods. With mechanical test methods, the effects of interlocking, glue adhesion and friction, which have an effect at the layer boundary, are not considered individually. Based on previous findings, the aim of this study is to carry out a precise analysis of the bonding at the layer interface between concrete and asphalt using bitumen emulsion by means of measurements with a high-resolution X-ray computer tomography (CT). To determine the effect of the surface texture of the substrate, the investigations were carried out on milled and smooth surface textures. In addition to the variation of the substrate profiles, the influence of the application quantity of the bitumen emulsions C40 B5-S and C60 BP4-S was analyzed by spraying quantities of 90 g/m2 and 180 g/m2 bitumen after breaking. A newly developed method was used to determine the effective degree of gluing at the layer boundary, which allowed the bonding efficiency to be determined. The results of the calculated degree of gluing for the individual variants show that the highest degree of gluing of 61.94% is achieved with the smooth texture variant and high application quantity of bitumen emulsion. The lowest degree of gluing of 17.01% was achieved with the milled texture variant without the application of bitumen emulsion. Overall, the results showed that the degree of gluing was increased for both surface textures by applying the bitumen emulsion. Compared to the smooth texture, the milled textures exhibit a lower degree of gluing for both bitumen quantities, which could be explained by the distribution of the bitumen emulsions on the substrate profiles.
