Hurley National Center for Asphalt Technology NZTA M10: 2014 SPSM10: SPECIFICATION FOR DENSE GRADED AND STONE MASTIC ASPHALTS Page 3 of 30 1 General 1. 1 Scope This specification covers dense graded and stone mastic asphalt for roads and related applications. Experiences with Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) Practical experiences and observations proved that SMA is a better mix than asphalt concrete stone on stone contact. This mix is designed to have 34 percent air voids, and it has a relatively high asphalt content due to the high amount of voids in the mineral aggregate. In the years since the development and subsequent success of Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA), a plethora of articles have emerged, scattered throughout various publications. The time is right for a comprehensive resource that collects, examines, and organizes The Stone Matrix Asphalt is appropriate for Highways, Rural roads, urban roads, Airports, Industrial areas. The choice of SMA mix design is at the discretion of the client when preparing the RFP (requirements for pavement). The Concept of Stone Matrix Asphalt Posted by admin on 11 11 15 For more than two decades, stone matrix asphalt (SMA), called stone mastic asphalt in Europe, has been taking over the global asphalt paving market at a remarkably high speed. The SMA (stone matrix asphalt) mixture is a gapgraded mix. In this present study comparison of strength of pavement wearing coat made with SMA mix with fibre and without fibre was done. This research was done to evaluate the viability of sisal Goutham Sarang et al 234 1. Introduction Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap graded bituminous mixture with high concentration of coarse aggregates and higher mastic (bitumen and filler) content. Note: NAD National application document; SMA stone matrix asphalt. These two methods may not be applied in parallel. In other words, only one method can be used at. The HMA Pavement Mix Type Selection Guide provides designers with methods for (OGFC), Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA), and fine and coarsegraded dense mixes. The Guide combines the selection criteria for these different pavement mix types into one document. To develop this document, information was obtained from a combination of literature In the years since the development and subsequent success of Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA), a plethora of articles have emerged, scattered throughout various publications. Stone matrix asphalt, left, tends to have a high concentration of coarse aggregate that maximizes stonetostone contact, in contrast to conventional hotmix. Evaluation of StoneonStone Contact in StoneMatrix Asphalt E. BROWN AND RAJIB BASU MALLICK The presence of stoneonstone contact and a relatively low percentage of fine aggregate are two characteristics of stonematrix asphalt(SMA). The Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) experimentaL feature on SH119, from SH52 East to Longmont, is the Colorado Department of Transportation's (CDOTls) first attempt under contract to. Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gapgraded mixture, have a better stone to stone contact which gives better strength to the mixture. In this research work aggregate used as per the MORTH specification was taken from a same lot. Stone Matrix Asphalt is a gap graded bituminous mixture which provides better stoneonstone contact due to the usage of course aggregate in the mixture. Design of SMA mixture is carried out by the conventional Marshall method. Stone Matrix Asphalt is a tough, stable, rutresistant mixture that relies on stoneonstone contact to provide strength and a rich mortar binder to provide durability. Quality Improvement Series 122. ii National Asphalt Pavement Association QIP 122 Abstract Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a tough, stable, rutresistant mixture. The SMAdesign concept relies on stoneonstone contact to provide strength and a rich mortar binder to provide durability. These objectives are usually achieved Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a tough, stable, rutresistant mixture that relies on stoneonstone contact to provide strength and a rich mortar binder to provide durability. Guidance Notes RDGN030 was issued in December 2001 introducing the use of stone mastic asphalt (SMA) as a surface course for heavily trafficked roads.

Construct a pavement layer composed of a compacted stonematrix asphalt (SMA) or stonematrix asphalt rubber (SMAR) mixture of aggregate, asphalt binder, and additives mixed hot in a mixing plant. Stone matrix asphalt (SMA) is a gapgraded bituminous mixture which can be used in surface layer of high volume pavements. The mixture has higher concentrations of coarse aggregates, providing strength and rut resistance to the mixture, and higher asphalt content giving durability. These are: Dense Graded asphalt (DGA); Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) and Open Graded Asphalt (OGA). Asphalt surfacing differs by the proportion of different size aggregate, the amount of bitumen added and the presence of other additives and material. Stone matrix asphalt (SMA) is a hot mixture asphalt consisting of a coarse aggregate skeleton and a high binder content mortar. It was developed in Germany during the mid1960s and it has been used in Europe for more than 20 years to provide better rutting resistance and to resist studded tyre wear.

The time is right for a comprehensive resource that collects, examines, and organizes this information and makes it easily. Stone matrix asphalt (SMA) is a tough, stable, rutresistant mixture that relies on stoneonstone contact to provide strength and a rich mortar binder to provide durability [1. These objectives are usually achieved with a gapgraded aggregate coupled with fiber or polymer percentage of RAP allowed in stonematrix asphalt (SMA) mixtures is dependent upon the binder type specified for the mixture: up to 20 when Performance Grade (PG) 7022 binder is used and up to 15 when PG 7622 binder is used. Stone Matrix Asphalt Stone matrix asphalt (SMA) is a gapgraded HMA (Figure 1) that is designed to maximize deformation ( rutting ) resistance and durability by using a structural basis of stoneonstone contact (Figures 26).
