In the rehabilitation of flexible pavements with asphalt layers, it is necessary to apply a bituminous tack coat with a pre-established dosage, which usually does not take into account the degree of texture generated if a milling operation is previously performed since this increases the surface at the interface. On the other hand, when milling, grooves are obtained that could lead to the runoff of bitumen emulsion with excessive deposition in their valleys due to dosages greater than those needed. This work analyses the above mentioned and achieves a compromise solution, with its corresponding method of application, based on the mechanical behaviour obtained with different degrees of texture and validated for typical materials used in Argentina.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
