ABSTRACT In recent years,shear destructions such as pushes/rut,arise on the crossing asphalt pavements with the volume of traffic growing greatly and the axial load increasing.Surface had to be rebuilt every two years,because mainly the shear strength examination of asphalt mixes had been neglected in the design process,and the original shear control index call not prevent effectively shear destructions. Firstly,based on field investigating shear damage phenomena and volume of traffic conditions on intersection,shear destruction types and typical characters were got,so as to prepare for analyzing the mechanism of shear destructions on the road intersection. Secondly,the mechanism of shear destructions on the road intersection analyze by three dimensional finite element analysis method.In view of the intersection asphalt pavements characters,the mechanics working state and responses of asphalt pavements under the vertical horizontal loading together.Drawing some following conclusions,such as:the horizontal load greatly influences shearing stress/the superficial tensile stress,but little influences the surface deflection and tensile stress at bottom of layers;the structure type of asphalt pavements,module,thickness,the ambient temperature has some effect on the biggest shear stress of pavement,the key is the horizontal force coefficient;because the asphalt mixes is the temperature susceptible material,temperature influence greatly on shear stress of it,and the high temperature anti-shearing strength is so enough that shear destructions arise on the intersection asphalt pavements. Thirdly,based on research on the shear test method in the domestic and foreign at presently,the co-axial shear test,one newly shear test method,is first developed.The method is not only operating simple,moreover the test sample stress characteristic conforms to actual road conditions.The mechanism responses on the test sample analyze by three-dimensional finite element analysis method,and the coefficient of shear strength is first developed.What’s more,the triaxial test results confirm that the co-axial shear test results are correct. Finally,the co-axial shear test studies the anti-shear strength of asphalt mixes at the different temperature and the different percentage of voids.The repeated load co-axial shear test study the anti-shear fatigue performance,and the shear fatigue model of asphalt mixes under the high temperature condition is got based on the study to the domestic and foreign fatigue models,the models is confirmed reasonable by the wheel-track test.So the co-axial shear test call effectively,quickly appraise the anti-shear performance of asphalt mixes.Furthermore,based on the intersectional asphalt pavements’ actual stress condition,a corresponding criteria on the anti-shear performance of asphalt mixes is proposed.
