Based on the miniature burning test designed and conducted, the burning time and temperature of porous asphalt （PA） and flame-retarded porous asphalt （FRPA） were studied comparing with cement concrete pavement, dense-graded lIMA and SMA. Results of burning test and pavement performance test indicate that FRPA is appropriate and suitable as the pavement material of highway tunnel.展开更多

The alkaline filler was found to replace mineral filler, and the flame- retarded asphalt mixtures were produced. Experimental results show that these asphalt mixtures are smoke restrained ; the performances and construction technology of asphalt pavement are not influenced; also the alkaline filler is of low-price. So this kind of flame-retarded asphalt mixtures is suitable for tunnel patement.展开更多
