Thermal Deformation of Cement-Asphalt Mortar under Repetitive Heating and Cooling

Abstract:

Cement-asphalt mortar interlayer plays an important role in ballast-less track in high speed railway. Cement-asphalt mortar undergoes repetitive changes in temperature when it is exposed to its service environment. Change in temperature has a significant effect on the thermal deformation of cement-asphalt mortar, and even affects directly the durability of ballast-less track. In the paper, length and mass of the specimens of cement-asphalt mortar were continuously measured during the heating and cooling cycles within the range of temperatures of -10~60°C. The results indicate that there is an evidently irreversible shrinkage at the end of the first cycle of heating and cooling. The shrinkage taken place at the end of cycles of heating and cooling decreases with the increase in cycle numbers. Apart from the curve for the first heating, deformation curves of cement-asphalt mortar either for heating or for cooling are nearly lines. After being heated and cooled for 5 times, the temperature-deformation curve for heating nearly overlaps the curve for cooling. The percent of moisture loss at the end of every cycle decreases with the increase in cycle numbers. Thermal shrinkage occurs at about 0°C in the first heating.
