Abstract:

In India, flexible pavements with bituminous surface are widely used. Therefore it is important to study the physical and mechanical properties of the bitumen and bituminous mix. The present study was taken up with the objective of evaluating the effect of various modified bituminous mix on Marshall Stability, indirect tensile ratio, indirect tensile fatigue value. In this study one aggregate gradation, five types of binders; VG-30, PMB-40, PMB-70, CRMB-55, CRMB-60 and one type of mixes, bituminous concrete (BC) are used. The result indicates that the performance of mixes made with the PMB-70 has the higher stability than the other bituminous mix as the neat bitumen has the lower stability value. Indirect tensile ratio of the CRMB-55 is higher than the other bituminous mix whereas neat bitumen has the lowest indirect tensile ratio value. The fatigue performance of the PMB-70 is more compared with the various bituminous mix and neat bitumen has the lower life cycle. Further in this paper regression model and analysis for the obtained indirect load has been recorded using Ansys software.
