In this laboratory, there're two main approaches to research. The first is the development of new materials for asphalt pavements. This includes proposing a new combination of aggregates (stones, sand, etc.) and asphalt binders in order to have a better performance. Our second approach is focused on reclaimed materials for road paving purposes. It's a common practice to use reclaimed materials, but the evaluation criteria and standards have not been decided yet. Therefore, we're studying effective evaluation methods and evaluation parameters. Our laboratory has these approaches to study pavement materials, which are such an important part of our daily lives.
