Design of asphalt concrete mixture and determinantion of the resistance against permanent deformation
Němec, Jan ; Matoušek, David (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the problem regarding asphalt concrete mixtures, concretely ACO 11+. This type of mixture has low resistance to permanent deformation (rutting) while high temperatures are present. The binder and aggregate tests regarding physical and mechanical properties were carried out. Subsequently the new mixture was designed on the basis of stricter requirement for grading envelope and air void content. The design mixture was tested for resistance to permanent deformation. From the obtained results the change in the national annex of the standard ČSN EN 13108-1 is considered in terms of change in testing temperature for some kinds of binders. The same tests were conducted in others asphalt laboratories in the Czech Republic to ensure the maximum comparability.

Night-time visibility of horizontal road marking
Fišer, David ; MBA, Martin Tóth, (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
This work is focused on important characteristic of horizontal road marking, which is night-time visibility, or retroreflection. Introductoty part deals with characteristics of horizontal road marking with emphasis on night-time visibility, contains summary of materials used for marking, material on drop, and also various kinds and technologies of application of horizontal marking. Next part is devoted to methods of measurement and their description including equipment for measurement. In the practical part there are listed data from measurement of retroreflection made on test area and on chosen areas of roads and also evaluation of measured data. End of this work includes obtained knowledges and review summary.

Adhesion of bituminous binders to aggregate
Vlk, Petr ; Hýzl, Petr (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
In 2005 the revised European standard 12697-11:2005 [1] was introduced offering a choice of three different methods. The static method described in part B has some similarities with the replaced Swiss standard for the determination of the affinity between bitumen and aggregates [2] and Czech standard for adhesions of asfalt binder to aggregates ČSN 73 6161 [3]. The result of this study is to compare the static method described in the [3] and a draft changes by Swiss research project [4] with the current revision of the European Standard 12697-11: 2005.

Influence of the sample preparation on the stiffness of asphalt mixtures
Pěch, Pavel ; Hýzl,, Petr (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
The Bachelor thesis deals with influence of the preparation of probationary bodies to determine of modulus of stiffness. Bodies in the form trapezoid are prepared in two different ways - with trimming and without trimming of all surfaces of the upper and lower party. This way prepared bodies are tested and is determined two-point test for modulus of stiffness. The results of tests are mutually compared.
