Analyzing characteristics of mixed marshall latasir class B using palm shell ash as a filler

Filler is one of the components of flexible pavement that functions as a cavity filler in the asphalt mixture. Commonly used fillers include portland cement, rock ash and lime which are non-renewable natural materials. Another alternative to ingredient filler mixture asphalt is utilization waste palm shell ash. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of the marshall mixture of Latasir B with palm shell ash filler based on KAO and to compare the characteristics of the marshall mixture of portland cement filler with palm shell ash. The research method used is an experimental method in the laboratory using the mixed planning method of Highways. The results of the study obtained the value of Marshall characteristics, namely a mixture of Latasir B with palm shell ash filler at KAO 9.98% with a filler content of 8.14%, Marshall Stability 2410.00 kg, Marshall Quotient 5.60 Kn/mm, Void Air Volume 5 .57% and 7.39 m film thickness. Differences in the characteristics of the mixture of marshall filler palm shell ash Latasir Class B against a mixture of Latasir Class B portland cement filler at an asphalt content of 9.88%, Marshall Stability value is 12.97% greater, Marshall quotient value is greater 7.14%, value The Air Void volume is 46.55% larger, and the Film Thickness value is 10.39% smaller.
