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.

Use of polymers in road constructions
Klusková, Jana ; Komenda, Radek (referee) ; Stehlík, Dušan (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the use of recycled polymers in asphalt mixtures. In the theoretical part of the thesis there is discussed the global issue of plastic waste including the experience of foreign countries, where this technology has already been introducted and used. The practical part is devoted to the proposal of using recycled plastic in asphalt mixture, description of used laboratory tests and the evaluating the effect of low-density polyethylen (LDPE) on the asphalt mixture type AC. There were performed tensile strenght tests, water resistant tests and stiffness modulus tests in the laboratory (E). The output of this work is an evaluation of measured values, processing of results and their interpretation depending on the possible use of this technology in Czech republic.

Machine for the recovery of road signs on roads
Malchárek, Martin ; Škopán, Miroslav (referee) ; Kašpárek, Jaroslav (advisor)
Object of this bachelor’s thesis is machine for the removing road signs on roads. Bachelor’s thesis involves background research with selection of similar machines on the market. Next part is focused on self design of the machine. Requirement of the design was simplicity of producing and high comfort for operator. This design is supported by calculations of basic parameters, V-belt transmission and strength check of shaft with tools.

Microsurfacing using Reclaimed Asphal Pavement
Kolesniková, Simona ; Valenta, Jakub (referee) ; Šperka, Pavel (advisor)
The road network in the Czech Republic is almost 55,738 km long and its maintenance has been underfunded for a long time. It is therefore necessary to look for ways to extend the overall service life of roads. Microsurfacings belong to the emulsion slurry layers and are made up of a thin layer of a mixture of aggregate and modified asphalt emulsion. It is a pavement maintenance technology used to extend the service life of pavements by 5 to 9 years. As the supply of quality aggregate is gradually decreasing and the price of feedstock for microsurfacing is increasing, the possibility of incorporating R-material into this technology needs to be addressed. This thesis deals with the replacement of natural aggregates in microsurface R-material in the amount of 100 %. In the framework of the work, the formulation of the microsurface with R-material was optimized.

New directions for waterproofing of underground transport
Čech, Tomáš ; Čížek, Luboš (referee) ; Šťastník, Stanislav (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on the implementation of waterproofing of underground constructions using an LLDPE membrane hinged on anchors. In the future, this method will replace the commonly used waterproofing system in Scandinavia with extruded polyethylene foam. This method of tunnel construction and waterproofing is compared with the NRTM method, often used in Central Europe. The thesis describes the installation of a waterproofing system, especially materials, accessories, welding devices and auxiliary installation equipment. The main focus of the thesis is to verify the reliability of the individual types of welds and to assess the waterproofing system in terms of implementation and environmental demands.

Road for cyclists in Vnorovy
Komoň, Richard ; Patočka, Miroslav (referee) ; Smělý, Martin (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to design a solution for cycling transport in the village of Vnorovy and its connection to the existing cycling route. It is a common communication for cyclists, pedestrians and farm machinery. The communication is conducted mainly on parcels owned by the municipality. The only exception is the descent to one field, which is located on parcels owned by private owners. In agreement with the mayor village of Vnorovy, the proposed route will be implemented in the near future.

Influence of temperature on the penetration of asphalt binders
Koblížek, Ondřej ; Koudelka,, Tomáš (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with an influence of temperature on the needle penetration results of tested bitumens in various test temperatures. The theoretical part describes the issue of laboratory tests in the world. This work also describes the american research program called SHRP (American Highway Research Program). The following part explains used test methods in detail (determination of needle penetration, determination of the softening point – ring and ball method). The practical part briefly introduces used materials and determines the results of laboratory tests and their comparison.

Recycling of asphalt mixtures with higher amount of RAP
Klimek, Matěj ; Koudelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Varaus, Michal (advisor)
The theoretical part of the diploma thesis recapitulates the existing literature in the field of recycling asphalt mixtures with a higher content of RAP (Reclaimed asphalt pavement). The practical part of the diploma thesis examines changes in the properties of asphalt mixtures with a higher content of RAP, due to changes in mixing time. Five mixtures have been proposed for this research. It is an asphalt mixture intended for the road abrasive layer (ACO 11+). Reference mixture "A" without RAP, with a standard mixing time of 25 seconds. Mixture "B" with 40% RAP, without rejuvenator, with an extended mixing time of 40 seconds. Mixture "C" with 40% RAP, with rejuvenator and standard mixing time. Mixture "D" with 40% RAP with rejuvenator and extended mixing time of 40 seconds. Mixture "E" with 40% RAP, with rejuvenator and extended mixing time of 55 seconds.

Influence of boundary conditions on the aging index of asphalt binders
Štohlová, Barbora ; Koudelka, Tomáš (referee) ; Dašek, Ondřej (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with an influence of several boundary conditions on the aging index of various modified asphalt binders. In the thesis there is rheology and modification of asphalt binders, types of ageing (short-term, long-term) and used tests (needle penetration, softening point, complex shear modulus, phase angle, aging tests) described. In the second part there is a brief description of used materials and comparison of the test results on these materials.
