Investigation of using municipal solid waste incineration fly ash as alternative aggregates replacement in hot mix asphalt
Abstract
The use of un-conventional materials in asphalt pavements is becoming popular as DOTs in many countries started to legislate their in the paving industry. The motive behind this is to get rid of available waste while maintaining or improving the pavement performance Fly ash is among those recycled materials that can be used as a substitute for virgin aggregates in bituminous mixtures. This study investigates the effect of using Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Fly Ash (MSWI-FA) as partial or full replacement of fine aggregates and mineral filler on the performance of asphalt mixtures. . The purpose of the experimental testing program is to determine the optimal MSWI-FA replacement type and percentage to be used in asphalt mixtures. This is done through a series of dynamic modulus tests with different MSWI-FA replacement percentages. The different mixes are then ranked based on their rutting and fatigue cracking potential using simple performance indicators.
