The territory of Slovakia is in Central Europe at the interface of the parts of the continent that are influenced by continental and by oceanic climates. This is reflected in the variability of weather and climate characteristics. Apart from traffic load, change of climatic conditions are one of the constant external factors with adverse effects on physical and mechanical properties of different structural multi-layers in pavements. These impacts together with frost index and their corresponding changes significan...

There are many technologies in road construction to ensure the better parameters of materials, mainly strength and deformation parameters and in recent years are very interesting and necessary so called environmentally acceptable technologies. With the development in the field of asphalt pavements there are various types of organic or chemical additives applied. The main reason of this application is to reduce the temperature used for producing and especially for laying of asphalt mixture. Chemical additives are s...
