RECLAIMED ASPHALT PAVEMENT USING CERAMIC WASTE

Abstract

In recent years a lot of new Invention create opportunities to use or utilize waste material in various construction field. Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement is one of the material which is generated for surfacing reconstruction from full or partially demolition of any pavement. In past year this RAP is using as a waste material by using this material for land filling or as a some soil stabilization but few Research happen on this material and they reach at positive result After removing all dust from wearing surface and successfully extraction from fine aggregate to bitumen, this fine aggregate and bitumen are partially use in pavement construction and maintenance of pavement as well. This material easily decrease the total cost of construction project. There are direct and indirect benefits of this material , direct benefits is to reduction in cost of pavement and another one is environment factor. RAP is one of the most recycled materials in the world. In United states, studies have resulted that 80% of the recycled material is used in roadway construction. Recent researches have established that RAP replacement at proportions above 55% is feasible to produce new HMA mixtures, and also obtaining satisfactory results in the mechanical properties . In addition to this ceramic wastage is also used as a fine aggregate to pavement construction.
