The utilization of the asphalt and concrete recycled materials to roads
Žďára, Zbyněk ; Šperka, Pavel (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
This diploma thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The is a review om the topic of recycled asphalt pavement and recycled concrete and their possible use in road construction in the theoretical part. The individual chapters deal with describing these materials, their production, and their use in construction layers of pavements. In the next chapters the attention is also paid to their problematic features and foreign experience using these materials in pavements. In the practical part, laboratory samples of recycled asphalt pavement and recycled concrete and their mixtures with cement are tested. The main purpose is to verify the applications of these mixtures of recycled asphalt pavement and recycled concrete in the bonded base layers of the pavement. Another purpose is to compare how these mixtures individual properties with different proportions of both components and different amounts of cement will be different. In the end, the two mixtures with the best properties was selected and the modulus of elasticity was experimentally determined for the possibility of replacing the currently used base layers and the economic evaluation of this design was made.

Asphalt Layers using Fibreglass Composite Materials
Sadil, Dominik ; Hýzl, Petr (referee) ; Šperka, Pavel (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with using of reinforcing composite materials in asphalt layers. These geosynthetic materials are in road construction used especially to reduce spreading cracks and extend the service life of the construction. As par of this work, test specimens of different types of asphalt layers were produced. These samples were subjected to laboratory testing, where the results of different reinforced asphalt slabs were compared. Within the diploma thesis primarily deals with the testing of the shear bond strength between asphalt layers in order to determine what are the other influencing factors of the test. Another part of the thesis is the 4-point bending test, during which a special technology in the form of a DIC camera was used to monitor the behavior of the asphalt layer over time.

Properties of reinforcing glass-fiber geogrids in pavement structure
Maláník, Stanislav ; Šperka, Pavel (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
Bachelor's thesis deals with the use of glass fiber reinforcement geogrids in road construction. Bachelor's thesis is focused on basic knowledge of reinforcing geosynthetics and on summary of existing regulations concerning the use of geogrids in roadway. The influence of the construction of the road layers on the change of the geogrid properties is evaluated by suitable tests. In particular, the effects of the impact of the movement of the construction technique on the geogrid and the effects of the compaction of the overlying layer on the geogrid properties were simulated in the laboratory.

System of assessment the tests for road laboratory
Štetinová, Petronela ; Šperka, Pavel (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
It is necessary to know the properties of the material on which the road will be built, but also the material that will be used during the construction for the proper design of the road (but also for other constructions). There are various laboratory tests, that are realised by standards. They are used for the proper assessment of the composition of the aggregate. The standards describe these tests in detail. This thesis simply describes the selected tests of aggregates. The main part is the creation of templates, which are the instructions for the execution of the tests. These templates, based on the measured (input) data, automatically evaluate the measurements, calculate the necessary parameters, plot the graphs and automatically create the output protocol of done test.

Bound mixtures for the base layers of pavements using glass fibers
Elabd, Ahmed Samy ; Šperka, Pavel (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
This thesis consists of a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part gathers available information on bound mixtures for base layers of pavements, providing basic information on the most commonly used types of recycled materials and their use in roads. It also includes various types of binders and requirements for their use. The thesis also explains the importance of reducing the amount of dosed hydraulic binders to eliminate negative impacts on the environment and for economic reasons, offering an alternative possibility of stabilizing soils into mixtures for subbase layers of roads. The practical part of this thesis focuses on the possibility of using glass fibers as a reinforcing element at low doses of binder. The main goal was to evaluate the designed mixtures with a hydraulic binder with the addition of glass fibers, depending on the results of bound mixtures with only glass fiber addition. These options were verified and subsequently compared using laboratory tests.

The diploma thesis deals with the use of recycled asphalt with aggregate in a hydraulically bound mixtures. The mixture is determined in the base or sub-base course of the pavement. The theoretical part of the diploma thesis describes the base course of the pavement, the production of recyclates from construction demolition waste, the acquisition and processing of recycled asphalt, the road reuse and recycling. The thesis is enriched by a contribution from the implementation of recycled asphalt laying into the base course of the communication company SKANSKA a.s. and ČNES a.s. The next chapter describes detailed experiences with recycling abroad. The thesis also contains a description of laboratory tests, which are important for evaluating the properties of mixtures with recycled asphalt. The practical part verifies the suitability of the mixture of recycled asphalt and aggregate for the road surface by testing the transverse tensile strength, compressive strength and frost and water resistance. The mixtures used are found to be suitable for pavement base course.
