Investigation into Shear Coefficient for Circle Shear Test Method of Asphalt Mixture

摘要

In order to efficiently evaluate the shear properties of asphalt mixture, the circle shear test method is proposed. However, the thickness of upper layer surface and the middle-surface of the asphalt pavement in China are usually less than the height of standard specimen in circle shear test, as well as some laboratory specimens. In order to determine the shear strength for samples at different height, the circle shear test is conducted to the specimens at different height, and the height calibration coefficient for non-standard specimens are proposed. With which the shear strength for samples at different height can be unified and easily determined.
