Abstract
In many areas of Alaska, clean, durable aggregates normally utilized for base course either require long hauls from outside, or are difficult to obtain within the project limits. Asphalt treatment is the most commonly used type of stabilization for the available lower quality materials to increase their strength thus extending their life and saving money to the state in the long run. This paper evaluates the effectiveness of different asphalt stabilization methods including hot asphalt treatment, foamed asphalt treatment, and emulsion asphalt treatment. A case study of pavement design using the Alaska Flexible Pavement Design (AKFPD) program was conducted to incorporate the effect of resilient behavior of different asphalt treated base layers on the pavement performance (resistances to rutting and cracking).
