AbstrakRoad damage has become a common problem commonly faced, in almost every area has a damaged road. Some of the causes of road damage in some areas are: poor road quality, inadequate drainage conditions. Therefore, it needs serious handling in reacting it, until finally this research was born to become an alternative in handling damaged roads that are in accordance with the requirements of the clan community. The research method used is an experimental method in the laboratory. The performance of asphalt mixture is determined based on the carrying capacity of the mixture based on stability and volumetric parameters with the Marshall method (SNI 06-2489-1991) with 3 samples of asphalt content 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%. The use of limestone as a hot mix material for almost all Bina Marga requirements is fulfilled. With the results of the average calculation of 3 samples, namely: VMA 18.06%, VIM 5.98, VFB 66.32%, Stability 1059 kg, Flow 2.86 mm, MQ 367 kg / mm. KAO results obtained at 6.5%.

The rapid development of road infrastructure increases the need for materials to be used, including the use of aggregates. This study aims to examine the use of aggregate from the Sewan River in Sarmi Regency as an asphalt mixture. In this study by conducting several tests such as checking the characteristics of course (stone), fine (sand), filler and asphalt characteristics. After that, a mixture of asphalt composition (AC-WC) was made and then the Marshall test was carried out to obtain the properties of the mixture. The results of testing the composition of the AC-WC mixture obtained the composition of the mixture for the optimum asphalt content of 7.50%, coarse aggregate 36.75%, fine aggregate 50.00%, and filler 5.75%. This shows that the aggregate characteristics of the Sewan river for the AC-WC mixture with the conventional Marshall method that meet the 2018 General Specifications of Highways are stability (Asphalt content 4.00%-11.00%), Flow (Asphalt content 4.00%-11 0.00%), VIM (asphalt content 4.00%-7.50%), VMA (asphalt content 5.75%-11.00%) and VFB (asphalt content 5.75%-11.00%).

Based on the binder leakage tests at 170°C and 185°C, three methods of binder leakage tests including the beaker method, the enamel plate method and the basket method were compared to analyze the rational control index of binder leakage loss of asphalt mixture .Then the Marshall test, scattering loss test, rutting test and design voids were used to verify the pavement performance of drainage asphalt mixture. Results showed that the basket method of binder leakage loss rate of 0.8% of the maximum amount of asphalt can satisfy the pavement performance requirements and can be the fundamental basis to determine the maximum drainage asphalt content.

In this paper, the influence of RAP content on pavement performance of hot plant recycling asphalt mixture is experimentally studied. The pavement performances contain high temperature stability, low temperature stability, water stability and fatigue resistance. Recovered asphalt was firstly extracted from RAP, and the properties of recovered asphalt was then tested and compared to normal 70# pavement asphalt. The gradation of recovered aggregate and new aggregate was then tested, and the mine material mixture gradation was determined. Marshall Test was adopted to determine the optimal asphalt content. The pavement performances show that the dynamic stability increases with RAP content increasing. The blending strain and fatigue life decreases while the stiffness modulus increases with the RAP content increasing. However, the residual stability and TSR show no obviously change with RAP content increasing.

Marshall test design methods are used to design TLA modified asphalt mixture and base asphalt mixture respectively, and their pavement performance is tested. The results showed that there is a transforming coefficient of 1.10 between optimum asphalt content (OAC) of 25% TLA modified asphalt mixture and that of base asphalt mixture, and TLA modified asphalt mixture has excellent high temperature stability, capacity of moisture-resistance damage and impermeability. Construction technology of TLA modified asphalt mixture is similar to that of ordinary asphalt mixture, but the key for it is to control construction temperature, uniformity and compactness of TLA modified mixture.
