Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Assume you have two binders, A and B. Binder A has a penetration value of 100 dmm, and Binder B has a penetration value of 40 dmm. Analyze which binder would be more suitable for use in a cold climate and explain why.

💡 Hint: Think about the effects of temperature on each binder's composition.

Question 2

Evaluate the impacts of incorrect penetration value selection for a specific road project. How might this affect road safety and durability?

💡 Hint: Consider what could happen if binders do not match environmental conditions.
