This study aims to comparatively investigate the effects of carbon fiber-based geogrid type and dense-graded asphalt concrete mixture (AC) surface combined body (SCB) type on the low-temperature cracking resistance of reinforced asphalt pavement through low-temperature bending damage tests. Two geogrid types were prepared: a carbon fiber geogrid (CCF) and a glass\/carbon fiber composite qualified geogrid (GCF). Two SCB types were studied: AC-13\/AC-20 and AC-20\/AC-25. The results show that the improvement in the flexural tensile strength of CCF is similar to that for GCF. Moreover, under reinforced conditions, the improvement in the low-temperature cracking resistance of AC-20\/AC-25 is better than that for AC-13\/AC-20 by 16.26\u201324.57%. Based on the analysis, the reasonable ratio range of the aperture sizes to the major particle sizes in the dense gradation can achieve a more effective interlocking effect. This can improve the low-temperature cracking resistance of carbon fiber-based geogrid-reinforced samples. Then, increasing the bending absorption energy is a key way of improving the low-temperature cracking resistance of carbon fiber-based geogrid reinforcements. Eventually, the fracture type of carbon fiber-based geogrid-reinforced samples is a mixed plastic\u2013brittle fracture. These results can provide a reference for the road failure analysis of geogrid-reinforced asphalt pavement.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym16152168","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,30]],"date-time":"2024-07-30T15:25:23Z","timestamp":1722353123000},"page":"2168","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Study on Low Temperature Cracking Resistance of Carbon Fiber Geogrid Reinforced Asphalt Pavement Surface Combined Body"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Zhiqiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Mechanical Behavior and System Safety of Traffic Engineering Structures, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"},{"name":"School of Traffic and Transportation, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guangqing","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Mechanical Behavior and System Safety of Traffic Engineering Structures, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"},{"name":"School of Civil Engineering, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Urban Geology and Engineering, Hebei GEO University, Shijiazhuang 050031, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xunmei","family":"Liang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shandong Road New Materials Co., Ltd., Tai\u2019an 271000, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mengfan","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Civil Engineering, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hao","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Civil Engineering, Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Shijiazhuang 050043, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"44","DOI":"10.1177\/0361198106196200106","article-title":"Analysis of Premature Low-Temperature Cracking in Three Ontario, Canada, Pavements","volume":"1962","author":"Yee","year":"2006","journal-title":"Transp.
