| Abstract | This paper applies an innovative digital image processing technique to quantify the orientations of coarse aggregate particles (=: 2 mm) in asphalt concrete mixtures such as hot mix asphalt, stone matrix asphalt, and large stone asphalt compacted in the laboratory or field. The results indicate quantitatively that asphalt concrete specimens compacted in the field or in the laboratory with gyratory compactor have an oriented structure of aggregate particle distribution where the major cross sections of aggregate particles have the tendency to lie horizontally, and that aggregate particles are more randomly oriented in the asphalt concrete specimens compacted in the laboratory with the Marshall compactor. |
