About this tender

Research and development services for evaluating trial sections of temperature-reduced rolled asphalt produced according to ARS No. 9/2021. The project aims to systematically analyze the effects of temperature reduction measures on various trial sections. Work includes: (1) evaluation of existing information and test results for specified trial sections; (2) collection of current section information, extraction of core samples, and assessment of service behavior of temperature-reduced rolled asphalt (asphalt wearing, binder and base courses) compared to conventionally produced sections on at least 10 trial sections. The project will assess potential impacts of viscosity-modifying measures on service life, optimization of additive use, and construction implementation of temperature-reduced rolled asphalt layers. Results will inform updates to technical standards and further decisions on implementing temperature reduction in asphalt road construction.

Key requirements

  • ✓Evaluation and analysis of existing test-section data and results from temperature-reduced asphalt trial roads under ARS 09/2021
  • ✓Field surveys, sample collection, and material testing on minimum 10 selected asphalt trial sections (deck, binder, and base layers)
  • ✓Comparative performance assessment of temperature-reduced rolled asphalt versus conventional asphalt sections under actual traffic conditions
  • ✓Systematic documentation of impacts from viscosity-modifying additives, modified bitumens, and foam bitumen technology on pavement lifespan

About this sector

Low-carbon materials funding covers cement, concrete, steel, chemicals, timber and novel building materials with lower embodied carbon. It ranges from research grants to demonstration plants and public procurement that specifies lower-carbon products. Calls often ask for lifecycle assessment, product testing against standards and interest from buyers in construction or manufacturing.
