PLASTIC MODIFIED BITUMEN IN PARTIALLY RUBBER AGGREGATED ASPHALT FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION USING MARSHALL STABILITY TEST

PLASTIC MODIFIED BITUMEN IN PARTIALLY RUBBER AGGREGATED ASPHALT FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION USING MARSHALL STABILITY TEST The present disclosure relates to ultilisation of the plastic modified bitumen in partially rubber aggregated asphalt for road construction using marshall stability test. Waste Plastic and Crumb Rubber are a major threat to the environment as they are not naturally biodegradable and increases environmental pollution. Here in the present invention, we uses the blend of lend using Waste Plastic, Crumb Rubber, Bitumen and Aggregates in construction of roads. For getting the perfect blend a series of tests on various blends were done. The various tests performed were Softening Point Test, Penetration Value Test, Ductility Test, Aggregate Impact Value Test, Aggregate Crushing Value Test, Los Angeles Abrasion Test, and Marshall Stability Test. It was found out that plastic can be used up to 6% by the weight of Bitumen, and Crumb Rubber by 5% by the weight of aggregate when Marshall Stability test was performed. During this novel research blend of both materials are used. It is found that J. Blend of Bitumen and Aggregate with 6% Waste Plastic as a partial replacement of Bitumen by the weight of Bitumen and 5% Crumb Rubber by the weight of Aggregate shows maximum stability by Marshall Stability Test.
