Interlaminar Bonding Properties on Cement Concrete Deck and Phosphorous Slag Asphalt Pavement

Abstract

The slippage damage caused by weak interlaminar bonding between cement concrete deck and asphalt surface is a serious issue for bridge pavement. In order to evaluate the interlaminar bonding of cement concrete bridge deck and phosphorous slag (PS) asphalt pavement, the shear resistance properties of the bonding layer structure were studied through direct shear tests. The impact of PS as a substitute of asphalt mixture aggregate, interface characteristics, normal pressure, waterproof and cohesive layer types, temperature and shear rate on the interlaminar bonding properties were analyzed. The test results indicated that the interlaminar bonding of bridge deck pavement is improved after asphalt mixture fine aggregate was substituted with PS and PS powder, and the result indicated that the shear strength of grooved and aggregate-exposed interfaces is significantly higher than untreated interface, the PS micro-powder or anti-stripping agent can also improve the adhesion between layers when mixed into SBS asphalt. This study provided important theoretical and practical guidance for improving the shear stability of bridge deck pavement.
