Investigation on Modified Bitumenious Mix using HDPE, Crumb Rubber & Coconut Coir
Journal Title: International Journal of Environment, Ecology, Family and Urban Studies (IJEEFUS) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Improper maintenance and increase in traffic load leads to deterioration of the roads. In India, the bitumen produced is not reaching the requirements of different weather conditions our country. Hence there is a need of rise to the modified bituminous mixes which improves the stability of the road structure. In this present study, an attempt is made to use the waste materials such as High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) crumb rubber and coir enhance the flexible pavement quality bitumen. These waste materials can be reused. They can mitigate the environmental problems and minimize the cost of construction of roads. In this investigation, we replaced bitumen with crumb rubber and HDPE at different proportions and lastly added coir for good tensile strength
