Use of R-material in asphalt mixtures with PMB type binder
Navrátilová, Pavlína ; Dašek, Ondřej (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on the use of R-material in asphalt mixtures with a PMB type binder. The work is divided into a theoretical part and a practical part. The theoretical part describes the acquisition of R-material by road milling, the use of R-material, the binder used in the practical part of the work and the types of recycling. The practical part deals with the design of four types of asphalt mixtures with different content of R-material in the asphalt mixture. It also deals with the description of functional tests of asphalt mixtures and the results of these tests.

Dosage of rejuvenating agents to asphalt mixture with high content of RAP
Čumíčková, Markéta ; Coufalíková, Iva (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on the appropriate dosage of rejuvenating agents in asphalt mixtures with high content of RAP. The empirical and functional laboratory tests are described in the theoretical part. The practical part deals with the estimation of the optimal amount of rejuvenating agents by means of laboratory tests so that the rheological properties of the degraded asphalt binder can be restored by suitable dosing into the RAP. As part of the TAČR ZÉTA project, an experimental section of asphalt mixture containing 50 % of the RAP and an appropriate amount of the rejuvenating agents was created. The aim of the thesis is to find an optimal dosage of the rejuvenating agents in the samples of the RAP and laboratory aged asphalt binder of gradation 50/70, to determine the effectiveness of selected rejuvenating agents and to monitor changes in the parameters of the experimental section during the period of time.

The quality of the fill crushed aggregate to the pavements
Surá, Kateřina ; Dašek, Ondřej (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
The thesis deals with the quality monitoring of fine particle aggregates used in the road construction mixtures and in the base layers of roads. In the laboratory of Institute of road structures VUT Brno was made an evaluation of the six test samples of fine and coarse aggregates to determinate a proportion of fine-grained aggregates, the limits of fluidity and shape index.

Asphalt mixtures with high resistance against cracks
Stromecký, Roman ; Šperka, Pavel (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
In this bachelor's thesis were suggested two kinds of asphalt mixtures. The first one contains conventional asphalt binder and the second one Crumb Rubber modified Bitumen. The aim of this thesis is a comparison of stiffness and fatigue characteristics of these two mixtures by two-point bending test on truncated wedges. There will be also an evaluation of the impact of an asphalt addition of the Crumb Rubber modified Bitumen in one of these mixtures.

Coarse graded asphalt mixtures
Mucha, Ondřej ; Dašek, Ondřej (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The bachelor’s thesis is focused on asphalt mixtures that contain coarser aggregates than currently allowed by technical regulations in the Czech Republic. The introductory part of the work describes the composition of asphalt mixtures, their division and use. Further deals with foreign experience with these types of asphalt mixtures and their use in the surrounding European countries and in the United States of America. The aim of this work is to obtain a theoretical overview of knowledge about coarse graded asphalt mixtures from foreign sources and research.

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.
