Study of Addition of Waste Plastic in Dense Bituminous Macadam with Stone Dust and Bagasse Ash as Filler

Abstract

Dense bituminous macadam (DBM) is composition of mineral aggregates and bitumen with proportion, the materials should resist the repeated traffic loads. The present situation availability of waste materials is increases due to increases in population and people life style, industrial growth etc. industrialization, it has creating the many wastes throwaway to society like waste plastic contains, plastic bags, wrappers covers, bottles, rubber and throwaway materials., also in sugar refining industry the bagasse ash is waste material. Because plastic is non bio degradable and disposal of waste plastic is creates the serious hygienic problems in environment. To avoid the impact in environment the alternate use of waste plastic needed. From the sugar refining industry the waste material obtain as bagasse ash. It will used as mineral filler, other side increasing in road traffic considerable changes in temperature and also increasing demand in highway construction, to enhance the road quality new techniques are using. The study presents the experiments conducted to find the behavior of DBM mix with plastic coated with thin layer of aluminum wrappers. The modified Waste plastic mix 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5% and 15% with stone dust as filler material and 5%, 7.5%, 10% and 12.5% with bagasse ash filler. The results indicated with 12.5% of waste plastic with stone dust and 7.5% of waste plastic with bagasse ash as filler shows the more strength. Bagasse ash with waste plastic got less deformation 4.1 compared to stone dust and conventional mix.
