In order to solve the problem of road icing and snowing in rainy and snowy weather in winter, the ice-breaking and snow-melting performance of fiber-reinforced asphalt macadam seal with rubber particles under driving load is studied in this paper. The ice-breaking and snow-melting effect of the sealing was systematically studied through experiments. The effects of rubber particle content, ice thickness and ambient temperature on the ice-breaking performance were analyzed. The test and analysis results show that the addition of rubber particles can make the fiber-reinforced asphalt macadam sealing have the ability of ice-breaking and snow-melting. It can be observed that the effect of ice-breaking increases with the increase of rubber particle content, the decrease of ice thickness and the increase of ambient temperature. However, when the thickness of ice layer is more than 5mm or the ambient temperature is less than -10℃, the ice-breaking ability of rubber particles is almost lost. Comparing with the effect of snow-melting, it is found that the addition of rubber particles makes the fiber-reinforced asphalt macadam sealing have a significant effect of snow-melting.
