Asphalt Binders and Mixtures

Asphalt binders are subsidiary products procured during the refining process of petroleum while manufacturing gasoline, diesel, and similar petroleum products. Asphalt binders are obtained from the residue that remains after the distillation of petroleum, this residue is further subjected to steam distillation and oxidation to remove the traces of gas oil present in the residue. Certain additives or modifiers are also added to asphalt binders to alter them to suit different applications.

nib mSto llsw art mai Q-6: Water flows in a confined aquifer from a fully penetrating river with a piezometric head of 12 m toward a river with a piezometric head of 10 m located 400 away. If the aquifer hydraulic conductivity and effective porosity are 3 m/day and 0.15 respectively, estimate the seepage velocity in the aquifer. Determine the drawdown and piezometric head 150 m from an upstream river.
A pump out test is carried out in a perforated well of 30 cm in diameter, extending into an impervious zone, and through an aquifer 17 m thick from the ground surface. The phreatic line is at 4 m below ground-surface level. After 24 hours of continuously pumping water out of the well, equilibrium has been reached. The discharge of the pump is 5.4 cu.m/hr and the drawdown is 4 m. The radius of influence R was estimated to be 15 m. Determine the average coefficient of permeability of the soil.
