Laboratory Evaluation on the Mechanical Properties of Asphalt Concrete Incorporating Industrial Waste
Publication: Pavement and Geotechnical Engineering for Transportation
Abstract
Laboratory tests were conducted to evaluate the feasibility of incorporating an industrial waste material (i.e. fine sand from automobile manufacturing) into pavement material. In this study, the fine materials were added into hot mix asphalt mixture as mineral fillers to replace agriculture lime. Test results indicated that the waste fines can be used in the asphalt mixture. Adding a certain amount (up to 45% by weight) of the waste sand improved the asphalt mastic's resistance to deformation. The dynamic modulus and indirect tensile strength of the mixture were improved by adding a specific amount of "filler" while the flow numbers were slightly reduced. 2.5% "filler" content was recommended for a dense-graded HMA surface mixture.
