As one of the major distresses of asphalt pavement, the moisture damage usually results in a very serious loss of strength and structural deformation. This paper aimed to study the healing properties of asphalt concrete suffered moisture damage. Both microwave heating and induction heating were applied in this research to activate healing. A series of experiments including freeze-thaw splitting test, Marshall Immersion test and three-point bending test were conducted to evaluate the healing performance of asphalt concrete. It was found that the heating speed of asphalt mixtures was enhanced at the presence of water. The results also indicated that both microwave heating and induction heating could only partially heal the loss of strength of asphalt mixtures suffered moisture damage due to structural deformation of the samples, which could not be healed with heating technics. The presence of moisture significantly decreased the healing rate of asphalt mixtures induced by induction heating or microwave heating. It was believed that the moisture on crack surfaces could prevent the thermal healing of cracks. It is recommended that the asphalt mixtures be healed in dry condition rather than at the presence of water. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
