This research is devoted to the study of creep behavior of asphalt binder in hot region. This binder was subjected to thermal cycles due to the variation of temperature from day to night. These cycles produce a heating-cooling phenomenon. To evaluate the effect of climate change in laboratory, the DSR (dynamic shear rheometer) was used, and the results found with the nine samples were compared. These thermal cycles led to aging and therefore hardening of the binder. Thus, a rheological model was proposed that can represent the curves obtained experimentally, where it is able to describe the creep behavior of binders tested. A new model is proposed that correlates well with the experimental curves, which is called A + 2 K.
