3 INTRODUCTION In Sweden, studded tyres are used in the winter, causing considerable surface wear on roads with high traffic volumes thus resulting in rutting. For a long period, the VTI (Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute) has been working on the development of wear-resistant asphalt pavements and equipment/methods for measuring the wear resistance of aggregates and asphalt surfacings. The choice of wear-resistant aggregates, introduction of stone-matrix asphalt and a change towards studded tyres, more favourable to the pavement, resulted in a considerable reduction of stud wear (Figure 1), which is now on an acceptable level. VTI activities have been carried out as follows: development of test equipment and measurement methods for wear studies a survey of influencing factors a survey and estimation of various pavement (surfacing) types development of a forecast model for rutting, cross-profile and annual costs based on the wear caused by studded tyres _ A abrasmn value : 90 _? abrasmn value 2 a) 80 n. g 70 _ L matrix asphalt m 60 g 50 ball mlll test m. 40 light studs H Figure 1 Wear development on roads with high traffic volumes, in principle, and development of test methods and mix types. (SPS-value = wear in gram per vehicle and kilometre).
4 METHODS FOR MEASURING THE WEAR RESISTANCE OF AGGREGATES At an early stage, the interest was focused on the quality of the aggregate and test methods were designed. The abrasion value (related to the British test) and later the "Nordic" wet ball mill value (Figure 2) are such examples. The correlation between the "Nordic" wet ball mill value and road wear is shown in Figure 3. In recent years, the wet ball mill test has also become a Nordic method and has been proposed as a European test method in the harmonisation of standards in Europe.

5 METHODS/EQUIPMENT FOR MEASURING THE WEAR RESISTANCE OF ASPHALT SURFACING MIXES The design of laboratory methods measuring the wear resistance of asphalt specimens proved to be difficult, which resulted in the activities being concentrated on road tests. At the beginning of the 903, there was however a breakthrough thanks to new test methods where small slabs of asphalt mixes were tested thoroughly and in realistic conditions. The slabs can be tested either in the field (Figure 4) by placing them in existing pavements and measuring the wear from traffic or by performing accelerated tests in the VTI's road simulator (a circular machine with a diameter of five metres) Figure 5. The method of using test slabs has facilitated a systematic survey of the factors influencing stud wear. Since the start at the end of the 1980's, approximately 600 slabs have been tested. Initially, the slabs were tested in the road, but in the course oftime, most of the tests have been moved to the road simulator, which is now the most important method for wear studies. This has been possible because of the very high correlation between the road simulator and road wear (Figure 6). Wear measurements in the field and in the road simulator were carried out with a laser profilometer (Figure 7a) consisting of an approximately one metre long monitoring beam with support. The profilometer is based on non-contact distance measurements between the measurement beam and the road surface using laser technique. The crossprofile is registered with a reading precision of approximately 0.01 mm and with a sampling density of 400 measurement points per metre. The measurement data are stored and processed in a PC. Wear is calculated from the difference between the zero measurement and the final measurement which is carried out in the autumn and spring, respectively, just before and after the period with studded tyres (Figure 7b). In recent years, a laboratory method, Prall test (Figure 8), has been modified for wear tests of specimens and drill cores. The method means placing a specimen in a small chamber with a number of small steel balls. The chamber is then shaken up and down at a high frequency and the steel balls hit the lid and the specimen and material from the specimen is worn off. The method originates from California (for durability resistance testing) and was later introduced to Germany.

8 FACTORS INFLUENClNG STUD WEAR Of all the studied parameters, the wear resistance of the coarse aggregate (exceeding 4 or 8 mm size) has proved to have a considerable influence on the wear resistance of the pavement. Figure 9 shows the importance of the aggregate in asphalt concrete with a maximum size of 12 and 16 mm. The difference between the poorest and the best pavement is approximately a factor 3. Figure 10 gives asurvey of how stone-matrix asphalt is influenced by the coarse aggregate. The "Nordic" ball mill value of the pavements is between The proportion of coarse aggregate in the pavement influences stud wear considerably. In principle, pavement resistance to studded tyres increases with increased aggregate content, implying that stone-matrix asphalt has better wear resistance than dense asphalt concrete (Figure 11). The Swedish stone-matrix asphalts contain about 70% material exceeding 4 mm. The maximum aggregate size is another factor of great importance to stud wear. In Figure 12, stone-matrix and dense asphalt concrete with varying aggregate size are described. The aggregates are phorphyry and quartzite. Polymer modified binders (PMB) can reduce wear from studs on specific types of pavements (Figure 13). Dense asphalt concrete with PmB obtains reduced wear compared with conventional bitumen while stone-matrix asphalt is not influenced by PmB. Other factors influencing pavement wear are: degree of compaction, traffic volume and frequency of studs, speed, lateral distribution of traffic (road width), distribution wet/dry wear and the type of studs, stud protrusion and stud force. Wet wear is often greater than dry wear but the difference depends on the type of aggregate.

FORECAST MODEL FOR WEAR FROM STUDDED TYRES The systematic survey of influencing factors facilitated the development of a forecast model for rutting caused by wear from studded tyres. The medel mainly consists of three parts: 0 a model calculating the amount of wear per number of studded vehicles 0 a model calculating the distribution of wear on the width of the lane (wear profile) 0 a model calculating the annual cost from used material and calculated term of life The inputs in the model are: the "Nordic" ball mill value, aggregate (>4 mm), maximum aggregate size, traffic volume, stud frequency, wear period, speed, road width, proportion of lightweight studs, salted/unsalted roads and pavement costs (aggregate, bitumen, etc.). EXPERIENCE FROM TEST ROADS Continuous studies from test roads have shown that wear has been reduced considerably thanks to the actions taken. The relative wear (SPS value, gram worn material per studded vehicle and kilometre) on a four-lane motorway with a total traffic volume of 60,000 vehicles per day is shown in Figure 14. The speed is 90 km/h and the pavement is stone-matrix asphalt with quartzite and porphyry (the best materials in Sweden). The reduction of the relative wear in recent years mainly depends on the lightweight studs which are more favourable to the pavement. Today, only tyres with lightweight studs are sold on the Nordic market. According to tests in the VTI's road simulator, lightweight studs (<l.4 g) wear approximately half the amount of the earlier steel studs (1.8 g). VTI Notat

The pavement is calculated to have a life time of 10 years.

CONCLUSIONS Aggregate quality is without doubt the specific parameter, together with the amount of coarse aggregate and maximum aggregate size, which is of most importance to the wear-resistance of asphalt pavements to studded tyres. Today, the best pavements in Sweden are probably five times more wear-resistant than the pavements in the mid-80s and possibly up to ten times better than those at the end of the 60s when studded tyres were introduced on the market. The development towards more wear-resistant pavements has been considerable above all in recent years, as a result of increased understanding of the importance of aggregates in bituminous surfacing mixes. High quality stone-matrix asphalt together with the more lenient lightweight studs has drastically reduced stud wear in Sweden and nowadays wearing coarse layers have acceptable life time terms. Earlier (1989) the cost of pavement wear was calculated to be millions of Swedish Crowns annually because of wear from studded vehicles on the Swedish road network.
