Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un système perfectionné anti-remontée de fissures intercalé entre la couche de structure et la couche de roulement d'une chaussée. Elle se rapporte encore à un procédé pour la réalisation d'un tel système.The invention relates to an improved anti-lift system of cracks inserted between the structure layer and the wearing course of a roadway. It relates still to a method for the realization of such a system.
Les chaussées routières ou aéroportuaires sont généralement formées de plusieurs couches, à savoir une couche supérieure, dite couche de roulement, à base d'un matériau du type enduit superficiel ou encore du type béton bitumineux et une ou plusieurs couches inférieures formant la couche de structure de la chaussée, à base de matériaux traités aux liants hydrauliques tels que ciments, laitiers de haut-fourneau, pouzzolane, cendres volantes, liants bitumineux.Road or airport roads are generally formed of several layers, namely a upper layer, called wearing course, based on a material of the surface coated type or even of the concrete type bituminous and one or more lower layers forming the structural layer of the pavement, based on materials treated with hydraulic binders such as cements, dairy blast furnace, pozzolan, fly ash, binders bituminous.
Pour les structures aux liants hydrauliques, les diverses contraintes mécaniques et thermiques de nature statique, par exemple retrait de prise et retrait thermique des matériaux, ou de nature dynamique, à savoir contraintes liées au trafic, auxquelles sont soumises les chaussées entraínent une fissuration de la couche de structure, les fissures générées se transmettant plus ou moins rapidement à la couche de roulement pour ensuite apparaítre à la surface de cette dernière. La présence de fissures en surface de la chaussée permet à l'eau de pénétrer dans le corps de ladite chaussée, ce qui provoque des dégradations rapides et importantes de cette dernière.For structures with hydraulic binders, the various mechanical and thermal stresses of a nature static, for example plug withdrawal and thermal withdrawal materials, or of a dynamic nature, namely constraints related to traffic, to which roadways are subject cause the structure layer to crack, the generated cracks transmitting more or less quickly to the wearing course and then appear on the surface of the latter. The presence of cracks on the surface of the pavement allows water to enter the body of said pavement, which causes rapid degradation and important of the latter.
Pour prévenir ou tout au moins retarder l'apparition de fissures dans la couche de roulement d'une chaussée, dont la couche de structure est sujette à fissuration, diverses solutions ont été proposées, telles que :
- création d'une interface consistant en une membrane en bitume/caoutchouc coulée sur la couche de structure pour découpler les mouvements de cette dernière et ceux de la couche de roulement qui la surmonte,
- renforcement en traction des couches de béton bitumineux de surface par des grilles de polyester présentant des caractéristiques mécaniques suffisantes, ou encore
- dépôt d'un non tissé de polyester sur la couche de structure fissurée, puis recouvrement du non tissé par une couche d'environ cinq centimètres d'un béton bitumineux qui constitue la couche de roulement.
- creation of an interface consisting of a bitumen / rubber membrane poured onto the structural layer to decouple the movements of the latter and those of the wearing course which overcomes it,
- tensile reinforcement of the bituminous concrete surface layers by polyester grids having sufficient mechanical characteristics, or
- depositing a polyester nonwoven on the cracked structure layer, then covering the nonwoven with a layer of about five centimeters of bituminous concrete which constitutes the wearing course.
De telles solutions n'ont pas conduit à des résultats satisfaisants, les fissures réapparaissant plus ou moins rapidement en surface.Such solutions have not led to satisfactory results, the cracks reappearing more or less quickly on the surface.
Une solution plus performante, proposée dans la citation FR-A-2592411, consiste à interposer, entre la couche de structure et la couche de roulement, une interface en géotextile non tissé imprégné d'un liant bitumineux consistant en un bitume modifié, par exemple, par un copolymère de styrène et d'un diène conjugué tel que butadiène.A more efficient solution, proposed in the quote FR-A-2592411, consists of interposing, between the structural layer and the wearing course, an interface in non-woven geotextile impregnated with a bituminous binder consisting of a bitumen modified, for example, by a copolymer of styrene and a conjugated diene such as butadiene.
Dans un article intitulé « Geogrids in reinforcing asphaltic pavements » et publié dans la revue Highways, Vol. 58 (janvier 1990), no. 1957, Croydon GB, pages 12 à 14, D.S. BUIST et P.R. INESON décrivent, entre autres, l'utilisation d'un treillis géotextile en polypropylène (Netlon Tensar Grid AR), pour diminuer la fissuration des chaussées. Plus particulièrement, au paragraphe « Hot Mix Pad Coat » (page 12, colonne 4), les auteurs indiquent que sur le treillis géotextile, maintenu en tension sur la couche de structure par des fixations et éventuellement en faisant appel à une couche d'accrochage, on dispose manuellement une couche d'enrobés à chaud que l'on compacte, avant de réaliser la couche de roulement de la chaussée.In an article called “Geogrids in reinforcing asphaltic pavements ”and published in Highways, Vol. 58 (January 1990), no. 1957, Croydon GB, pages 12 to 14, D.S. BUIST and P.R. INESON describe, among other things, the use a polypropylene geotextile mesh (Netlon Tensar Grid AR), to reduce cracking of pavements. More in particular, in the paragraph “Hot Mix Pad Coat” (page 12, column 4), the authors indicate that on the trellis geotextile, kept in tension on the structure layer by fixings and possibly by using a bonding layer, there is manually a layer of hot mixes that are compacted, before carrying out the pavement wearing course.
Dans la citation EP-A-0469222, on décrit un revêtement de chaussée comportant une nappe d'un géotextile collée, au moyen d'une couche d'un adhésif bitumineux, sur la couche de base en béton bitumineux d'une chaussée, par exemple ancienne couche de roulement de la chaussée, ladite nappe étant recouverte d'une couche de roulement poreuse à base d'enrobés bitumineux. Si besoin est, une couche d'égalisation peut être disposée sur la couche de base en béton bitumineux pour éliminer les irrégularités de surface de ladite couche avant la pose de la nappe géotextile.In the citation EP-A-0469222, a pavement covering with a geotextile sheet bonded, using a layer of bituminous adhesive, to the bituminous concrete base layer of a pavement, by example old road surface, said ply being covered with a porous wearing course at bituminous mix base. If necessary, a layer can be arranged on the base layer in bituminous concrete to eliminate surface irregularities of said layer before laying the geotextile sheet.
On a maintenant trouvé que l'on pouvait améliorer les performances des systèmes anti-remontée de fissures du type de celui décrit dans la citation FR-A-2592411, en accolant une couche de granulats enrobés d'une quantité spécifique d'un liant bitumineux à la couche de géotextile imprégnée elle-même d'un liant bitumineux.We have now found that we could improve the performance of anti-rising crack systems in type of that described in the citation FR-A-2592411, in adjoining a layer of aggregates coated with a quantity specific of a bituminous binder to the geotextile layer itself impregnated with a bituminous binder.

Un procédé pour réaliser un système anti-remontée de fissures selon l'invention, intercalé entre la couche de structure et la couche de roulement d'une chaussée, ledit système comportant une couche d'un géotextile imprégnée d'un premier liant bitumineux et accolée à une couche de granulats enrobés d'un second liant bitumineux, est du type dans lequel on applique l'une des couches du système anti-remontée de fissures sur la couche de structure de la chaussée, puis on revêt la couche ainsi formée à l'aide de l'autre couche du système anti-remontée de fissures et l'on applique la couche de roulement sur l'ensemble ainsi formé et il se caractérise en ce que, dans la couche de granulats enrobés du second liant bitumineux, la quantité dudit liant est comprise entre 3% et 20% et plus particulièrement entre 4% et 12 % du poids des granulats.A method for producing an anti-rising crack system according to the invention, sandwiched between the structure layer and the wearing course of a roadway, said system comprising a layer of a geotextile impregnated with a first bituminous binder and attached to a layer of aggregates coated with a second bituminous binder, is of the type in which one of the layers of the crack prevention system on the layer of pavement structure, then we coat the layer as well formed using the other layer of the anti-lift system cracks and apply the wearing course on the assembly thus formed and it is characterized in that, in the layer of aggregates coated with the second bituminous binder, the amount of said binder is between 3% and 20% and more particularly between 4% and 12% of the weight of the aggregates.
Selon une première forme de mise en oeuvre, on applique tout d'abord la couche de géotextile imprégnée du premier liant bitumineux sur la couche de structure de la chaussée, puis l'on revêt ladite couche de géotextile par la couche de granulats enrobés du second liant bitumineux et sur cette dernière couche on applique la couche de roulement de la chaussée.According to a first form of implementation, one first apply the geotextile layer impregnated with first bituminous binder on the structure layer of the pavement, then we cover said geotextile layer with layer of aggregates coated with the second bituminous binder and on this last layer we apply the wearing course of the roadway.
Selon une deuxième forme de mise en oeuvre, on applique tout d'abord la couche de granulats enrobés du second liant bitumineux sur la couche de structure de la chaussée, puis l'on revêt ladite couche de granulats enrobés par la couche de géotextile imprégnée du premier liant bitumineux et sur cette dernière couche on applique la couche de roulement de la chaussée.According to a second form of implementation, we first apply the layer of aggregates coated with second bituminous binder on the structure layer of the pavement, then coating said layer of coated aggregates by the geotextile layer impregnated with the first binder bituminous and on this last layer we apply the pavement wearing course.
La couche de roulement de la chaussée, qui repose sur le système anti-remontée de fissures, peut être de tout type connu dans l'art, le liant utilisé pour cette couche de roulement étant un bitume pur ou encore un bitume modifié par un polymère et notamment par un copolymère de styrène et d'un diène conjugué tel que butadiène, isoprène ou butadiène carboxylé.The road surface, which rests on the anti-rising crack system, can be anything type known in the art, the binder used for this layer of bearing being a pure bitumen or a modified bitumen by a polymer and in particular by a copolymer of styrene and a conjugated diene such as butadiene, isoprene or butadiene carboxylated.
Lorsque la couche de structure de la chaussée est fissurée, il est utile de boucher les fissures les plus larges, par exemple fissures de largeur supérieure à 2 mm, à l'aide d'un agent de pontage consistant en un mastic bitumineux avant d'appliquer, sur ladite couche de structure, la première couche, à savoir géotextile imprégné ou granulats enrobés suivant le cas, du système anti-remontée de fissures.When the pavement structure layer is cracked, it is useful to plug the most wide, for example cracks wider than 2 mm, at using a bridging agent consisting of a putty bituminous before applying, on said layer of structure, the first layer, namely impregnated geotextile or aggregates coated, as appropriate, with the anti-lift system cracks.
La couche de granulats enrobés du second liant bitumineux qui constitue l'une des deux couches du système anti-remontée de fissures selon l'invention a une épaisseur pouvant être comprise entre 1 cm et 6 cm.The layer of aggregates coated with the second binder bituminous which constitutes one of the two layers of the system anti-crack recovery according to the invention has a thickness can be between 1 cm and 6 cm.
L'invention est illustrée par les exemples suivants donnés à titre non limitatif.The invention is illustrated by the following examples given without limitation.
Dans ces exemples, on étudie la propagation de fissures dans des éprouvettes simulant une structure de chaussée comportant ou non un système anti-remontée de fissures.In these examples, we study the propagation of cracks in test pieces simulating a structure of roadway with or without an anti-lift system cracks.
Les éprouvettes utilisées consistaient chacune en une plaque rectangulaire multicouche, ladite plaque ayant une longueur de 560mm et une largeur de 110mm et comportant une couche support préfissurée selon son axe transversal simulant la couche de structure fissurée d'une chaussée et une couche apparente simulant la couche de roulement de la chaussée, cette dernière couche reposant directement sur la couche support préfissurée ou étant séparée de cette couche support par un système anti-remontée de fissures.The test pieces used each consisted of a multilayer rectangular plate, said plate having a length of 560mm and a width of 110mm and comprising a pre-cracked support layer along its transverse axis simulating the cracked structural layer of a roadway and an apparent layer simulating the wearing course of the pavement, this last layer resting directly on the pre-cracked support layer or being separated from this layer support by an anti-rising crack system.
En utilisant lesdites éprouvettes, on effectuait des essais de détermination de la vitesse de remontée de la fissure de la couche support dans la couche de l'éprouvette simulant la couche de roulement.By using said test tubes, tests to determine the ascent rate of the support layer crack in the test layer simulating the wearing course.
Ces essais étaient effectués sur une machine d'essai retrait-flexion comportant un élément support plan fixe et un élément support plan mobile en translation, définissant ensemble un plan support horizontal. L'éprouvette soumise à l'essai était montée sur la machine d'essai de telle sorte que l'une des moitiés de la face libre de la couche support préfissurée transversalement de l'éprouvette était collée sur l'un des éléments supports plans et que l'autre desdites moitiés était collée sur l'autre desdits éléments supports plans.These tests were carried out on a testing machine shrinkage-bending comprising a fixed flat support element and a plane movable support element in translation, defining together a horizontal support plane. The test piece submitted to the test was mounted on the test machine so that that one of the halves of the free face of the support layer transversely prefissured of the test piece was glued on one of the flat support elements and that the other of said halves was glued to the other of said support elements plans.
Chaque éprouvette montée sur la machine d'essai était soumise, dans des conditions de température constante (opération à la température de 5°C), simultanément à deux types de sollicitations, à savoir
- une traction longitudinale continue lente, avec une vitesse de 5 µm par minute, simulant le retrait thermique, et
- une flexion verticale cyclique, à la fréquence de 1Hz, simulant le trafic.
- slow continuous longitudinal traction, with a speed of 5 μm per minute, simulating thermal shrinkage, and
- a cyclical vertical bending, at the frequency of 1Hz, simulating the traffic.
La progression de la fissure dans la couche de l'éprouvette simulant la couche de roulement était suivie au moyen d'un réseau de fils conducteurs électriques collés à différentes hauteurs sur le chant de ladite couche dans la zone de ce chant où doit se développer la fissure de telle sorte que la remontée de la fissure dans la couche provoque une coupure successive de ces fils, la position des fils coupés étant enregistrée en fonction du temps de sollicitation de l'éprouvette. The progression of the crack in the layer of the test specimen simulating the wearing course was followed at by means of a network of electrically conductive wires bonded to different heights on the edge of said layer in the area of this song where the crack of such must develop so that the rise in the crack in the layer causes a successive cut of these wires, the position of the wires cut being recorded as a function of time solicitation of the test piece.
Sur la courbe ainsi obtenue, représentative de la propagation de la fissure en fonction du temps, on déterminait le temps tR2 au bout duquel la fissure était remontée de 2 cm dans la couche de roulement.On the curve thus obtained, representative of the propagation of the crack as a function of time, the time t R2 was determined at the end of which the crack had risen by 2 cm in the wearing course.
