Summary

Introduction. The analysis of recent research on prevention of formation of defects of asphalt pavements on road bridges and extension of terms of their operating period is given. The perspective of application in Ukraine of asphalt pavements modified with thermosetting polymers is determined. The  research tasks are formulated.
Problem statement. Lack of sufficient experience in the use of epoxy asphalt pavement on the Ukrainian road bridges and uncertainty of economic feasibility of its application.
Purpose. Perform an analysis of the existing experience of using asphalt pavement modified with thermosetting polymers to increase its durability on the road bridges.
Materials and methods. Analysis of information sources on the use of epoxy asphalt pavement on the road bridges. Analytical studies of asphalt mixtures modified with epoxy constituents.
Results. The perspective directions concerning improvement of quality of pavement on the road bridges, increase of their performance and durability are determined. An analytical review of the experience of using epoxy asphalt pavement on the road bridges has been conducted. The questions of modification of the bituminous base of asphalt mixtures with epoxy composites with the aim of improving their technical characteristics have been studied. The promising economic efficiency of the use of epoxy asphalt mixes in Ukraine has been established. The tasks concerning further investigation of epoxy asphalt  pavement when applied on the road bridges have been formulated.
Conclusions. An analysis of information sources on the application of epoxy asphalt pavement  on the road bridges showed the following: the economic and technical feasibility of the use of these pavements, since they have significant advantages compared with the asphalt pavement of the standard composition (without modifiers); the introduction into the bitumen of epoxy constituents from 5.0 % to 20.0 % leads to a significant increase in the strength and heat resistance of epoxy asphalt concrete at all temperatures. The introduction of epoxy asphalt concrete allows improving the quality and durability of road pavement, as well as significantly reducing the cost of repairs.
