Abstract

The paper presents a study, on several samples of asphalt mix, with different compositions, in order to investigate the influence of the composition, on the properties, which asphalt mix must fulfil. For all kinds of aggregates, the granulometric analysis was made, and the bitumen content was varied, to study the influence on the properties of the mixture.
