Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR) test of bituminous mixture PMG 45/80-55 was done using Test Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) Anton Paar RheoCompass™ equipment, according to AASHTO T 350-14 Standard Method. This test method covers the determination of percent recovery and no recoverable creep compliance of asphalt binders by means of the Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR) test. The MSCR test is performed at 64 ° C; the two measurements were taken on the same day with repeated measurements immediately after the first. 60 cycles per stress level: shear stress loading 0.1 kPa and 3.2 kPa for 1- second loading and 9‐second rest period were played. The percent recovery value is intended to provide a means for determining the elastic response and stress dependence of modified and unmodified asphalt binders. Load level 0.1 kPa R_0.1 = 3.04 % Load level 3.2 kPa R_3.2 = 0.00 % Percent difference of recovery Load levels 0.1 kPa and 3.2 kPa R_diff = 100.00 % Average non-recoverable creep compliance Load level 0.1 kPa J_nr(0.1) = 7.0184 1/kPa Load level 3.2 kPa J_nr(3.2) = 8.4301 1/kPa Percent difference of non-recoverable creep compliance Load levels 0.1 kPa and 3.2 kPa J_nr_diff = 20.11 % FAILED at 64.00 °C according to AASHTO M 332-14. Second test Load level 0.1 kPa R_0.1 = 3.34 % Load level 3.2 kPa R_3.2 = 0.00 % Percent difference of recovery Load levels 0.1 kPa and 3.2 kPa R_diff = 100.00 % Average non-recoverable creep compliance Load level 0.1 kPa J_nr(0.1) = 6.6338 1/kPa Load level 3.2 kPa J_nr(3.2) = 8.0698 1/kPa Percent difference of non-recoverable creep compliance Load levels 0.1 kPa and 3.2 kPa J_nr_diff = 21.65 % FAILED at 64.00 °C according to AASHTO M 332-14.
