Abstract

This paper aims to draw up comparison between the requirements for an airport asphalt mixture and road asphalt mixture from laboratory point of view and for an airport pavement and road pavement from design point of view and materials used. Asphalt mixtures for airport present certain features comparatively to those for highways, main roads or streets of different technical categories, from composition point of view. Also, laboratory studies include additional specific tests according to European norms in the case of asphalt mixtures for airport. Beside this, the design of an airport pavement is different from those of a road pavement.
