Evaluation Of Bituminous Mix Parameters With Addition Of Plastic Waste
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 9
Abstract
Road construction is the main integral part of the developing countries. The conventional method has been proven perfect for the road construction but now, time has come where there is a need of enhancement of properties of bituminous mix with the help of other binder materials. The use of waste plastic is road pavements is the smartest solution for its reuse. In current study, conventional and modified bituminous mixes with different plastic percentage are prepared using Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) at normal mixing and compaction temperatures. The Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM) is selected as gradation for study. The VG-30 is used as binder and shredded waste plastic have been used as an additive. Addition of LDPE has enhanced the properties of bituminous mix such as stability, flow value, air voids and specific gravity. From obtained results it was noted that 4% (by weight of bitumen) plastic has increased the stability & flow value.
