Abstract :Stripping in asphalt mixtures is the one of foremost distress mechanisms. To prevent stripping, fatty acids insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(AS); and hydrated lime insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HL); additives are often used as anti-stripping additives. The determination of the correct usage ratios of these additives and the storage stability of bitumen constitutes important research topics for anti-stripping additive applications. Three surfactants and hydrated lime were used in three ratios to evaluate the effect of additive ratio and type. Indirect tensile strength insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ITS); values obtained from samples with one and three cycle modified Lottman conditioning and indirect tensile strength ratios insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ITSRs); were interpreted in the context of water damage. The load-carrying capacity of the conditioned mixtures increased significantly. Even if the degree of damage was considerably increased at the end of three cycles, the integrity of the mixtures was maintained. Both AS and HL significantly increased water damage resistance. Modified Lottman conditioning has an observable level of damage. Additives remained functional and maintain their mechanisms of benefit, especially in the event of a high degree of damage.
