Impact of Fly Ash in Bituminous Mix

Abstract

Bituminous mix Design is estimated to result in a mix which is sufficiently durable, strong, and to fatigue resistive and permanent deformation, at the same time eco friendly and economical. A mix maker tries to achieve those requirements by a number of tests on the mix with different proportions of material and finalizes the perfect one. This involves a perfect balance between mutually conflicting properties. Design of bitumen mix is a slightly balancing act among the proportions of different aggregate sizes and bitumen content. For a specified aggregate gradation the optimum bitumen content (OBC) is determine by a number of mix design parameters. In bituminous mix fillers play an key role in engineering parameters of bituminous paving mixes. Generally stone dust, lime and cement are used as fillers. An effort has been made in this experiment to assess the impact of non-conventional and easily available fillers such as cement and fly ash in bitumen paving mixes.
