A STUDY OF BITUMINOUS SHUNGITE BINDER ON THE SCANNING MICROSCOPE

Statement of the problem. It is possible to improve working conditions of road pavement and to use it more efficiently by regulating water-thermal conditions of the subgrade thereby reducing humidity in the design period and mitigating its seasonal changes.Results and conclusions. It is suggested to use extruded foam polystyrene as a heating layer. The thermal fluctuation approach was applied to failure and deformation processes. Physical constants for the analytical description of these processes at varying temperatures and stresses are calculated. The technique for determining acting stresses and temperatures was described. The prediction of the durability of extruded foam polystyrene in road structure is presented.
