Asphalt mixtures with the use of higher amount of RAP
Mucha, Bohumír ; Matoušek, David (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
At the beginning of the Master’s thesis the asphalt mixture of the type asphalt concrete and its basic properties are described. The main point of this work is to compare the functional properties of asphalt mixtures with the addition of higher amount of RAP and various rejuvenators used in the experimental section. From individual samples of asphalt mixtures taken during the laying, the control tests were carried out and the process of permanent deformation with the wheel tracking test was monitored. After that, using functional tests the properties of asphalt mixtures with conventional modified and unmodified asphalt bitumen enriched with the addition of declaring similar properties were compared.

Design of asphalt mixtures with the use of higher amount of RAP
Pavličík, Petr ; Matoušek, David (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
In the introduction of the Master’s thesis describes for obtaining and processing of reclaimed asphlalt. Major point of the thesis is design of asphalt mixtures with use of higher amount of RAP for asphalt binder course. Asphalt mixtures were designed with contents of 0%, 30%, 50% and 70% of RAP. On each asphalt mixtures were compared parameters set out by functional tests – resistence to permanent deformation and resistence to water.

New trends in the field of stone mastic asphalts
Pfeiferová, Magdaléna ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
The work consists of two parts. The first part is focused on the determination of an anti-skid properties of the test section on Vídenská street. The anti-skid properties will be measured using a pendulum tester and macrotexture will be set at the same time. Microtexture will be measured using a volumetric patch technique. In the second part we will try to gain an initial experience with design and testing of a low noise stone mastic asphalt. We will set basic characteristics and at the same time compare with a standard stone mastic asphalt. For the comparison two various bituminous binders are used. The water sensitivity, resistance against rutting and stiffness moduli are compared.

Asphalt recycled material to cold asphalt mixtures
Kotas, Vojtěch ; Varaus, Michal (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
The thesis is focused on the use of R-material into cold asphalt mixtures, which is modern method using recyclate into subgrade of roads. Concretely, it deals with basic properties of R-material, such as grain size and compaction. It practically verifies and compares properties of cold asphalt mixtures with cement, asphalt emulsion or with combination of this two binders. As reference testing method was chosen test of tensile splitting strength.

Recycling of asphalt mixtures - variability of RAP - parameters
Tuháček, Martin ; Koudelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
The bachelor thesis is focused on RAP material (Reclaimed asphalt pavement), particularly on its characteristics and usage while producing hot mix asphalt at plant. The theoretical part thoroughly describes different fields of application of RAP, these include both the hot and cold recycling. The practical part, on the other hand, essentially covers the problem of using the maximum feasible amount of RAP in hot mix asphalt mixtures; mechanical and psychical properties of a binder and aggregate grading curves are evaluated. On the basis of the testing results, the classification of RAP is undertaken. Moreover, the variability of RAP characteristics is assessed and compared within two various plants. Therefore, the maximum amount of RAP added is based on the very deviation of each characteristic. Representative samples were of two sizes – 0/11 and 0/22.
