The shear fatigue test of three bonding layers was conducted on a dynamic shear rheometer（DSR）. The fatigue formulas were gained for these layers. The experimental results indicate that, at the same torque level or at the same frequency, neoprene latex asphalt bonding layer exhibits excellent fatigue performance when compared to other two bonding layers.展开更多
