چکیده
There is growing interest in sustainable road pavement technologies to protect the environment and provide economic benefits. Post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics are considered for construction address threat of plastic waste materials (PWM) improve sustainability. Asphalt highly PWM recycling due its large daily production. The purpose this study investigate performance asphalt mixture containing PWM, specifically high-density polyethylene (HDPE), compare with two conventional mixtures. Three mixtures were considered: (1) binder PG 76-22 (SBS-modified); (2) 70-22 (3) 67-22 3% HDPE (the mixture). rheological properties modified binders evaluated. long-term field pavements was modeled using AASHTOWare software (v.1.1.6) three considered. results showed that all able comply cracking threshold specified by Louisiana Department Transportation Development (LaDOTD) high-traffic volume roads. In addition, similar one (SBS-modified) binder.
