Abstract

In order to study the improvement of the mechanical properties of basalt fiber geogrids on semi-rigid base asphalt pavement and the prevention and control effect of reflection cracks, this paper laid the basalt fiber geogrid and test sensor in the different positions of the semi-rigid base of Yanchong Expressway experimental Sect. (625 m long) are divided into three working conditions: I, II, and III according to different reinforcement levels. Through the test, the temperature and strain at the corresponding positions of the top and bottom of the semi-rigid base course change with time, and the crack performance of the basalt fiber geogrid-reinforced semi-rigid base course is analyzed under the action of temperature and the linear regression equations between the temperature and the strain of the base course. Atmospheric temperature between substrate strain and substrate temperature is obtained. The field test results show that adding basalt fiber geogrid to the semi-rigid base can prevent reflection cracks and improve the anti-crack performance of the semi-rigid asphalt pavement, the best anti-crack effect in the middle position of the semi-rigid base.
