Abstract

In this research, the effects of two additives namely SBS (3, 5%) and Lucobite (3, 5%) on the performance properties of binder were evaluated. The binder fatigue and rutting performance was evaluated through linear amplitude sweep (LAS) and multiple stress creep and recovery (MSCR) test, respectively. Results indicated that 3% SBS modified binder has the highest percent recovery value and the lowest Jnr value, but had the highest sensitivity to a sudden increase in the stress level inside the asphalt mixture. The LAS test results demonstrated that the fatigue behavior of asphalt binders modified with 3% Lucobite, is the highest one.
