Utilization of Waste Adhesives in Bituminous Concrete

Abstract

In India due to rapid growth in urbanization leads to increased number of vehicles day by day on the road pavements which results in repeated loading and higher riding quality roads. Surface course is the top most layer of the flexible pavement which undergoes high stresses and wear and tear due to traffic loads. Hence it is necessary to construct the roads with higher quality materials and mean time the use of natural resources also should be reduced. In India increasing in population and vehicles lead to increased generation of waste products such as waste plastic and rubber tyres. In this paper an attempt has been made to use the crumb rubber (4%, 8%, 12% and 16%) and low density polyethylene (4%, 6%, 8% and 10%) waste as replacement for bitumen. The test results showed that addition of crumb rubber at 12% to bitumen and replacement of low density polyethylene at 10% to bitumen with 12% crumb rubber shows increased stability than conventional mixes.
