| dc.description.abstract | Bitumen Rubber Asphalt (BRA) has been used in South Africa since the early 1980's with varying degrees of success. There are projects which have perfomed exceptionally well and have exceeded their design life, with one specific example of a BRA surfacing which is still performing well after 25 years. There are also BRA projects that have had their fair share of problems with some recent projects having up to 20% of their asphalt placed failing prematurely. This paper will cover the BRA experiences of contractors over the past 10 years in South Africa, highlighting challenges experienced as well as measures taken to limit risks of premature failure. | en_US |
