ABSTRACT
The growth of economy of any country depends upon the development of transportation and there is a growing demand for air transportation in developing country. In runway construction, the flexible pavements typically have a functional life of 12 to 15 years between major maintenance treatments. Pavement preservation plays a significant role in maintaining the pavement infrastructure under severe budget constraints. Numerous methods are being employed for asphalt pavement preservation including rejuvenator, bitumen emulsion fog seals surface treatments (including slurry and micro surfacing technologies), and emerging bituminous thin overlay technologies. The present study investigated the field performance and mechanical properties of bituminous mixtures treated with polymer modified emulsion based rejuvenator.
