Why does 40°C damage European roads while Indian roads survive 45°C and beyond?
Europe's roads are designed for freezing winters, so they use softer bitumen that stays flexible in sub-zero temperatures but can soften/deform during heatwaves. Indian roads, on the other hand, are built to withstand extreme summer heat using harder VG-grade bitumen & asphalt mixes with larger aggregates, which retain strength even at temperatures over 45°C.
