Abstract

Composition optimization of the asphalt mixture of pavement is one effective measures to reduce the harm of traffic noise. To improve the noise reduction effect of porous asphalt mixture (PAM) and promote the recycling of crumb rubber in highway engineering, the preparation parameters of high-viscosity modified asphalt for PAM were optimized in this study, and the mixture gradation was optimized based on the unbalance force and contact force of mixed aggregate. The effects of crumb rubber content and particle size on the damping performance and dynamic shear modulus of the mixture were studied. The effects of different preparation parameters on the performance of the PAM were comprehensively evaluated based on the orthogonal test, and preparation parameters of PAM were recommended. The results show that with the increase of crumb rubber content, the damping ratio of the mixed aggregate increases gradually. The addition of crumb rubber is conducive to improving the damping performance and toughness of the PAM, but it has an adverse impact on the bearing capacity. Under the condition of low strain, the damping ratio of the mixed aggregate containing 2–5 mm crumb rubber is 1.2–5 times that of the mixed aggregate containing 0.6–1 mm crumb rubber. The recommended optimum content of crumb rubber in PAM is 4%, and the optimum particle size of alternative aggregate is 2.36–4.75 mm. The significant factors affecting Marshall stability are rubber particle content, asphalt aggregate ratio, mixing temperature, compaction times, and forming temperature. The rational utilization of crumb rubber in PAM is of positive significance to promoting the green development of highway construction and the harmless treatment of waste resources.
