Abstract
The paper presents the field applications and evaluation results of solid epoxy asphalt mixture for steel bridge deck. The material was developed in Japan. The material properties of epoxy asphalt mixture were evaluated through various literature review, and the mix design and mixture evaluation were conducted. According to the research results, the application of epoxy asphalt mixture for steel bridge deck was noticeable compare to the conventional ones. In addition, results from 3D finite element analysis showed that the performance of epoxy asphalt mixture for steel bridge deck was proved to be satisfied. As a result, a pilot test section was constructed using the epoxy asphalt mixture produced from conventional batch plant system. BPT test results showed that friction of the epoxy asphalt mixture was higher than the requirements compare to that of the conventional one.
