Conclusions and discussion
CR blends are close to the ranges suggested for a base layer
design. Hence, the composition of TDA–CR in conjunction The susceptibility of traditional rigid matrix of permeable pave-
ment systems to crack propagation and their low coordination
number prohibits the widespread application of these materials
as an effective storm water management solution. Despite the
low load-bearing capacity that is expected from these materials,
unexpected natural ground movement due to swelling of sub-
grade layers or intrusion of tree roots into the pavement struc-
ture can compromise their functionality. Partial replacement of
the limited number of rigid-rigid contact points in these struc-
tures with flexible-rigid contacts can remove the susceptibility
of these materials to crack propagation under flexural loading
imposed at the top of the pavement layer. The flexibility of
the system can be designed to match the targeted purpose of
application for the pavement layer to either utilise the rigidity
of the CR aggregates for tolerating higher loads or make use
of the higher flexibility provided by the TDA. The blends
with VTDA of less than 30% show a relatively rigid behaviour,
where VTDA exceeding 50% decreases the load-bearing capa-
bility significantly.
The impact of the polyurethane binder in improving the
compressive strength is minimal in blends with lower TDA
content; however, at a higher TDA content, the polyurethane
binder improves the load-bearing capacity and stiffness of the
pavement. Yet the improvement in compressive strength of
the pavement was not noticeable compared to the impact it
had on flexural strength of the pavement. The impact of the
polyurethane binder in strengthening the mixture predomi-
nantly was observed under tension and bending loads.
Although the monotonic flexural strength of modulus of rup-
ture test is insensitive to VTDA, the flexural modulus under cyc-
lic loadings is impacted by the TDA content. It should be noted
that although the rigid-to-rigid contact compression impact of
the CR aggregates at the top layer of the pavement increases the
