Targets of HMATargets of HMA
Performance improvements Stiffer Improved of fatigue behaviour Higher rutting resistance
Technical Economic optimisation Thinner thickness Better response to the increase of traffic agressivity (load, increasing,..) New structure, but especially for reinforcement pavement Reduction of complementary works (like modification of water or gas network
in town, increasing of safety fence, …)
Savings in raw materials, maintenance and related traffic disruption

Route for improvementRoute for improvement
Same grading curves as HMA
Stiffer binder (Hard, PmB, Additive) Class 10/20 or 15/25 for EME 2 EME 1 : No application (prefer GB 3)

Main properties of HMA Main properties of HMA (classe 2)(classe 2)
Same grading as conventional asphalt mix for base course
Continue grading 0/14 (sometime 0/20, less 0/10) Binder harder (pure hard bitumen, Modified, Additives)
Penetration grade 10/20 (usual) ; sometime 20/30 + additives
Increasing binder content (HMA) Same order of magnitude as conventional wearing course (6,0%)
Asphalt mix : good homogeneity, dense (voids % < 5%) High mechanical performances (the best of asphalt) Decreasing till 35% of thickness / conventional GB 3

Performances ranking of Asphalt mixes for base course
Limits of performances determined in laboratory, used in pavement design
If modulus of bitumen too high, the rigidity of bituminous mixes increase so much, and the risk of thermal cracking increase too.

1) Good performances of underneath (profile, stiffness, imperviousness)
2) Performance (choice of components, tack coat or +, application controls)

conclusionconclusion Performing structural material adapted to heavy traffic Very important to :
respect the performances in lab, control quality constituents (hard bitumen), composition, voids ,
thickness homogeneity
The HMA 2 have been used for 25 years without significant : Signs of thermal cracking Stripping of binder Modulus evolution by hardening

CONCLUSION : CONCLUSION : Development and field of use of HMADevelopment and field of use of HMA
High demands from many countries for this material : Europe : GB, B, CH, D, NL, center of Europe, South, America : center (Mexico, USA), and south (Colombia, Brazil, Argentina,…) Africa : Maghreb countries Asia : China, …
due to :- increase of load aggressiveness,
- needs for modernization, durability, - environmental effect, reduction energy consumptions
