Asphaltic concrete for pavement construction in India
\r\nare produced by using crushed stone, gravels etc. as aggregate. In
\r\nnorth-Eastern region of India, there is a scarcity of stone aggregate.
\r\nTherefore the road engineers are always in search of an optional
\r\nmaterial as aggregate which can replace the regularly used material.
\r\nThe purpose of this work was to evaluate the utilization of
\r\nsubstandard or marginal aggregates in flexible pavement
\r\nconstruction. The investigation was undertaken to evaluate the effects
\r\nof using lower quality aggregates such as over burnt brick aggregate
\r\non the preparation of asphalt concrete for flexible pavements. The
\r\nscope of this work included a review of available literature and
\r\nexisting data, a laboratory evaluation organized to determine the
\r\neffects of marginal aggregates and potential techniques to upgrade
\r\nthese substandard materials, and a laboratory evaluation of these
\r\nupgraded marginal aggregate asphalt mixtures. Over burnt brick
\r\naggregates are water susceptible and can leads to moisture damage.
\r\nMoisture damage is the progressive loss of functionality of the
\r\nmaterial owing to loss of the adhesion bond between the asphalt
\r\nbinder and the aggregate surface. Hence zycosoil as an anti striping
\r\nadditive were evaluated in this study. This study summarizes the
\r\nresults of the laboratory evaluation carried out to investigate the
\r\nproperties of asphalt concrete prepared with zycosoil modified over
\r\nburnt brick aggregate. Marshall specimen were prepared with stone
\r\naggregate, zycosoil modified stone aggregate, over burnt brick
\r\naggregate and zycosoil modified over burnt brick aggregate. Results
\r\nshow that addition of zycosoil with stone aggregate increased
\r\nstability by 6% and addition of zycosoil with over burnt brick
\r\naggregate increased stability by 30%.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1] A. R. Mazumder, A. Kabir, N.
