Moisture Resistance of Bituminous Hot Mixtures Modified with Waste PET

Characterization of Hot Bituminous-Asphalt Mixtures with Recycled Polyurethane Foam

Received: June 06, 2017 Revised: July 05, 2017 Accepted: July 19, 2017 Abstract: Introduction: The use of polymer wastes in pavement as road is an increasing trend in the road construction sector. Those new pavements reduce the amount of solid waste disposed into landfills and provide more sustainable construction due to the use of in-situ materials. Polyurethane foam waste is a thermostable po...

Bituminous Sandstone Mixtures

In certain sections of the state of Indiana sources of recognized ag­ gregates for use in bituminous construction are very few, and the trans­ portation of aggregates to the job site from remote locations becomes necessary. Often the distance over which the aggregate must be moved is considerable, and the importation involves the expenditure of a size­ able sum of money, which it would be desir...

DESIGNING FINE BITUMINOUS MIXTURES for HUH SKID RESISTANCE

Effects of Waste Fibers Stabilizers on the Draindown and Moisture Damage Sensitivity Properties of SMA Mixtures

Waste fibers produced from manufacturing processes are a byproduct commonly deposited in storing yards and/or landfills and thus results in many serious environmental problems in Iran. If these waste materials could be advantageously put to practical use in any application, it would reduce the burden on the environment and landfills. This paper compares the performance of the stone matrix aspha...

Experimental Studies on Modified Bituminous Mixes Using Waste HDPE and Crump Rubber

-In hot countries like India roads laid on agricultural zones and other water prone areas will be affected by severed pot holes created due to the water entry in the pavement. Increase in road traffic in combination with insufficient maintenance due to shortage in funds causes rapid deterioration of the roads. To lighten this process, several measures may be effective, such as, use of better qu...
