Use of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement and Bagasse Ash in Bituminous Flexible Pavement

Abstract

An attempt has been made to utilize the waste material such as reclaimed asphalt pavement and bagasse ash by replacing coarse aggregate sieve by sieve and cement while preparing the bituminous mix sample. The usage of RAP was done at different proportions of 15%, 30% and 45% by the weight of coarse aggregate and bagasse ash was used at different proportions of 5%, 7.5% and 10%. Various tests on bitumen, aggregates and obtained bituminous samples were conducted for final results. Therefore, from the results obtained, it can be concluded that all the results of replacement mixes were found to be within the limits of MORTH 5th revision requirement and they have shown the satisfactory results also. The usage of RAP and Bagasse ash can be done effectively
