What is Polishing Behaviour of Asphalt Surface Course Containing Recycled Materials about?

Skid resistance is a key road safety factor indicating the provided friction of a pavement’s surface, which deteriorates over its service life mainly due to traffic polishing. Hence, the polishing behaviour of a pavement’s surface course is important for the provided road safety. For this reason, there have been many studies related to the assessment of polishing behaviour of asphalt mixtures. Besides, during the last decades the introduction of recycled materials in pavements has increased in order to face environmental challenges. However, investigations regarding the surface course are mainly centred around aspects of structural performance of the recycled materials. Contrariwise, it appears that the investigation for the provided skid resistance of asphalt mixtures containing recycled materials is limited. On these grounds, the present study investigates skid resistance performance through the polishing behaviour of asphalt mixtures containing recycled materials under the effect of traffic, simulated by the Wehner/Schulze machine. The investigated mixtures include conventional Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA), as well HMA containing varying contents of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) mat
