Analysis of Properties in Bitumen and Asphalt with Partial Replacement of Rubber Tyres

Abstract

Generally, pavements are broadly classified into many types according to the materials used. In this project waste rubber tyres (automobile) were utilized for the strengthening of pavement. These Waste Tyres has been a threat to environment for the past few years due to the usage of more vehicles. Disposal of the waste tyres has also become a great challenge. This project work contributes to the safe disposal of waste tyres by using them in road pavement. Modified Bitumen is one of the important construction materials for pavements. The rubber obtained from the waste tyres will be more advantageous when we use those wastes in the construction of flexible pavement are the new modifier raw-material has been sourced from disposed waste tyres. This rubber tyre is partial replaced of those wastes in asphalt and bitumen gives more strength and durability also reduces the thickness of wearing course.
