Detection of Thermal Segregation During Paving by Using Infrared Thermography

Segregation in asphalt pavements is one of the most common and costly problems in the paving industry. This paper deals with the thermal segregation of hot mix asphalt ( HMA) pavement. HMA is produced and placed at high temperatures (e.g. 155 – 163°C and 140 – 155°C, respectively.) Cold spots in the asphalt layer can cause temperature differential damage (TDD) and reduce the pavement life. If temperature is not consistent the pavement will eventually show signs of distress in the locations of the cold spots.
