Rejuvenators in recycled asphalt material
Klein, Marek ; Coufalíková, Iva (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the use of rejuvenating additives in asphalt mixtures with reclaimed asphalt pavement. The theoretical part describes methods of adding reclaimed asphalt pavement to new asphalt mixtures. There are also explained principles of tests on asphalt binder: needle penetration, softening point, dynamic shear rheometer (DSR), bending beam rheometer (BBR) and short-therm aging of asphalt binders by the RTFOT method. The practical part of the thesis explains procedures of adding rejuvenating additives to asphalt mixtures in laboratory conditions. In the practical part are also evaluated results of tests on asphalt binder.

Trnka, Lukáš ; Dašek, Ondřej (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the possibility of mixing binders of the PMB RC type with a binder made of reclaimed ashalt. lists the types of asphalt binders, its production and modification are in the teoretical part. There is explained the principle of rejuvenators function, types of rejuvenators. The procedures for performing tests on asphalt binders: recovery of asphalt binder, needle penetration, softening point (ring and ball method), reversible ductility, breaking point (according to Fraass) and DSR. Individual tests are evaluated and asphalt mixtures are compared in the practical part of asphalt binder.

Asphalt concrete with reclaimed material - design
Kučerová, Marcela ; Koudelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
Bachelor thesis is focused on the design and testing of asphalt mix type asphalt concrete containing R-material. The theoretical part is dedicated to the RAP in asphalt mixtures produced by hot, in particular the specifics during design and manufacture of asphalt mixture. Next there is introduced further information relating to the functional characteristics of asphalt mixtures and the influence of R-material on them. The practical part describes the designs and testings on mixtures ACO 11+ and 11+ 50% RAP. In order to compare the proposed mixtures were carried out tests of low thermal attributes according to ČSN EN 12697-46 and cracking using uniaxial tensile test according to ČSN EN 12697-46.

Functional tests on mixtures of the test section with asphalt concrete and high amount of RAP
Kučerová, Marcela ; Zajíček, Jan (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
The diploma thesis is focused on the testing of asphalt mixtures of asphalt concrete containing reclaimed asphalt and laying of the test section. The theoretical part deals with the use of reclaimed asphalt in hot asphalt mixtures, namely the specifics of rejuvenating agents, aging and asphalt mixture. Further more information on the functional properties of asphalt mixtures and the influence of reclaimed asphalt on them is given. The practical part describes testing of mixtures of ACO 11+ and ACO 11+ with 50% reclaimed asphalt and tests on asphalt binders. In order to compare the proposed mixtures, the low thermal properties of ČSN EN 12697-46 and the stiffness modules according to ČSN EN 12697-26. In the last part of the diploma thesis the results of the measured values were compared with each other in order to determine of asfphalt recovery. From the overall test results, it can be seen that the effect of the rejuvenating agent was positive. However, the desired degree of rejuvenation has not been achieved after production.

Usage of recycled materials to asphalt mixtures
Zítka, Patrik ; Kašpar, Jiří (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
This thesis deals with the R-material use in asphalt mixtures. In the theoretical part, different kinds of flexible pavement recycling and ways of adding R-material into asphalt mixtures are discussed. The practical part deals with asphalt layers design and manufacture, specifically for binder course ACL 16+. R-material content in the blends is 0%, 20%, 25% and 30%. EVOTHERM MA3 rejuvenator is used as additive for softening of R-material. Various mixtures are compared based on tests - resistance to permanent deformation, resistance to the effects of water and low temperature properties.

The issue of increasing the proportion of reclaimed asphalt in asphalt mixtures
Urbanec, Luboš ; Mondschein,, Petr (referee) ; Hýzl, Petr (advisor)
The subject of this Ing. thesis is asphalt mixture with increasing RAP (Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement). The theoretical part defines the terms of recycling and RAP and types of recycling. The practical part is devoted to the production and testing of asphalt mixtures with different volume RAP. The proposed asphalt mixture is asphalt concrete for base layer ACP22 +. Content of RAP in mixtures is 0%, 30%, 50% and 70%. As a special additive to soften the asphalt from RAP is used ingredient STORFLUX. For each mixture are established modulus stiffness of asphalt mixture and determined fatigue characteristics of asphalt mixture. The identified properties are compared for the different representation of RAP.

Cold asphalt mixtures
Spáčil, Petr ; Hýzl, Petr (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and practical part. The theoretical part consists of explanation of the problem. The thesis includes definitions as Bitumen, Asphalt Mixture, Asphalt Binder, Cut-back Bitumen and Viscosity. The practical part is focused mainly on the description of the test methods used on Asphalt Binders and Mixtures which were intended for repairs. It describes differences between used Asphalt Binders and explains and describes other used materials. The practical part compares the mixtures of different Cut-back Bitumen. It describes the production process and project of Cut-back bitumen mixture, the production process of individual test solids and compares the differences with hot made asphalt mixture. It also describes the analysis of volumetric, mechanical-physical and funcional tests in purpose of evaluating the differences between standard Cut-back Bitumen and new biofluxed asphalt binder.

Warm Mix Asphalt Using Technology of Foam Bitumen
Machel, Ondřej
Nowadays, more and more attention is paid to the environment protection. The issues of the environment protection are obviously related to road engineering as well. Asphalt pavements are used in the majority of road constructions. When producing these mixtures, it´s necessary to reach high temperatures, which is energetically demanding and at the same time there are impacts on the environment. In order to reduce the negative effects as much as possible, there are efforts to reduce working temperatures while keeping the properties of the mixtures. The result is the so–called Warm Mix Asphalt – WMA. The aim of this article is to introduce basic methods for reducing working temperatures with a focus on the foam bitumen technology and its use in the Czech Republic.

Evaluation of properties of clear and pigmented asphalt binders
Kamanová, Monika ; Machalla, Michael (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The Bachelor thesis subject is comparison of the chosen parameters of clear asphalt binder with pigmented asphalt binder. The theoretical part explains parameters of asphalt binders and improving their properties after using additives. The second part is explaining methods and test results. The empirical tests (needle penetration, softening point, breaking point) and performance tests in dynamic shear rheometer and bending beam rheometer are used for comparison of binders properties. In the conclusion the laboratory aging of asphalt binders is described by RTFOT and RTFOT + PAV method.
