3.2 Binder
For the laboratory study, bitumen binder of grade 60/70
and binder modified with SBS (PMB 70) were
considered in the present investigation. The physical
properties of binders are given in Table 2.

From the Table 6, it can be seen that the mix satisfies the
specific target levels for Superpave compaction. At Nini,
Ndes and Nmax, the target air voids level is met, ensuring
that the mixture will not be tender and thus HMA may
not fail prematurely.

where
Nf is the number of load repetitions to failure
is the tensile strain level in micro strains
K (depends on material properties) and n (slope of
the curve) are empirical constants.
Fig. 5 where 6, 7 shows the relationship between tensile
strain and number of cycles at different temperatures.
Table 10 shows the regression values K and n at
different temperatures obtained from figures.
