Abstract

The present study evaluated the behavior of geosynthetic-reinforced asphalt overlays using Leutner shear tests aiming on investigating different tack coat rates and the relationship of shear bond results with geosynthetics physical and mechanical properties. Therefore, samples were extracted from experimental sections combining 4 cationic rapid setting (CRS-2) emulsion rates and 3 reinforcement geocomposites (PET, PVA e Fiberglass). For all geosynthetics, results showed superior behavior of shear bond strength and interface shear stiffness as higher the applied emulsion rate. This increase was in the order of 129%, 73% and 146% for interface with PET, PVA and fiberglass reinforcement geocomposites, respectively. Asphalt retention capacity was not related to maximum shear bond strength, once higher tack coat rates were used. Geosynthetics physical properties presented influence over shear bond strength results, highlighting thickness, mass per unit area and geogrid mash sizes. Stiffer geosynthetics lead to lower bond strength results, while lead to higher interface shear stiffness. The influence of increase in tack coat rate was higher than the influence of geosynthetics physical and mechanical properties.
