Abstract:

The microscopic structure of aggregates is of crucial importance to the skid resistance of asphalt pavement.In this paper,the microscopic structures of four kinds of aggregated rocks with different materials were evaluated by using a serf-developed high-accuracy laser-texture instrument,and the aggregate texture curve was quantitatively evaluated with the box-counting dimension method.Then, the vacuum coating technique was adopted to eliminatethe effects of aggregate lithology,surface color and microscopic crystal and to improve the measurement accuracv of fractal dimension.The results show that the box-counting dimension method can effectively describe the micro-rexture of different aggregates,and that the vacuum coating technique can remarkably improve the measurement accuIlacv.

Key words: asphalt pavement, aggregate, microscopic structure, fractal dimension, vacuum coating
