This paper describes the design procedures and construction practices used for the construction of bitumen rubber asphalt in rehabilitation projects in South Africa. Bitumen rubber products are normally at a disadvantage as they are placed where the conventional asphalts have already failed or where the existing base courses are in severe distress, and on top of this must now …

The bitumen rubber consisted of 80/100 penetration-grade bitumen (72-82%), rubber crumbs (18-24%) and extender oil (0-4%) was blended by a commercial asphalt mix manufacturer and the blend conformed to national TG1 (2007) …
The use of bitumen-rubber binders and asphalts was introduced in the Republic of South Africa (RSA) in the early 1980s. Some of these old projects were visited recently to evaluate the performance of B-R asphalts over the last 20 years. This paper provides the results of this survey, and details the B-R asphalt and binder properties at the time of manufacture. The …
1.0 Introduction Bitumen-rubber technology has been used in South Africa since the mid 1980's in an attempt to improve the performance of hot mix asphalt to achieve: - Increased binder softening point and higher binder viscosity resulting in increased binder film thicknesses and reduced drain-down of binder especially in open-graded mixes ...

The outstanding success of Bitumen-rubber (B-R) asphalt over the past 15 to 20 years in South Africa has revived interest in this product in recent years. This success became prevalent in 1998 with the report on the 12-year service life of bitumen-rubber asphalt on the Buccleuch Interchange [Potgieter et al. 1998].
Bitumen Rubber Asphalt (BRA) has been used in South Africa since the early 1980's with varying degrees of success. There are projects which have perfomed exceptionally well and have exceeded their design life, with one specific example of a BRA surfacing which is still performing well after 25 years.
Bitumen-rubber asphalt (BRA) has been used successfully in South Africa since its introduction in the early 1980's. The early mixes were produced using the 'dry' blend method whereby the rubber crumb was added as filler to the aggregates in the hot mix asphalt manufacturing process. The 'wet' blend method has subsequently

The South Africa National Road Agency Ltd has entered into a research and laboratory testing agreement with the CSIR to support the revision of the South African Pavement Design Method (SAPDM). The research includes characterising a bitumen-rubber semiopen graded mix, known in South Africa as BRASO. The general concern was whether the BRASO asphalt mix can be …

2011. Bitumen Rubber Asphalt (BRA) has been used in South Africa since the early 1980's with varying degrees of success. There are projects which have performed exceptionally well and have exceeded their design life, with one specific example of a BRA surfacing which is still performing well after 25 years.
This is a separate topic and dealt with further in our second paper titled 'Bitumen Rubber Asphalt in South Africa: Latest and Futuristic Developments' by CJ Potgieter. This paper concludes that the somewhat higher initial construction cost of B-R asphalt is negligible in view of the savings in traffic accommodation, bypasses and the extended ...
