Abstract

The model mobile load simulator (MMLS3) accelerated pavement tester (APT) at the University of Stellenbosch was used for examination of both field and laboratory sprayed seal performance, and a test method developed. From 1998 to 2002 a test regime using five different seal binders, and three temperature regimes covering the ranges of bituminous binder behaviour, was implemented. A method of evaluating seal performance was developed to enable evaluation of the seals behaviour. Results and experience from the MMLS3 tests in the field and laboratory, with inclusion of results from Hamburg apparatus (focusing on moisture and ageing) are discussed to highlight critical seal performance influences and criteria.
