Abstract
Abstract Additives added to the flexible pavement mixture aim to increase the strength of the pavement. Limestone which is a sedimentary rock consists of the mineral calcium carbonate (calcite) or the double carbonate of calcium and magnesium (dolomite). The use of limestone in pavement mixtures is expected to increase the performance of Marshall parameters. This study aims to determine the suitability of limestone as a filler for 3 types of pavement mixtures, namely Asphalt Concrete Wearing Course, Hot Rolled Sheet and Split Mastic Asphalt. In this study, the limestone used was sourced from Jorong Durian, Nagari Kamang Mudiak, Kamang Magek District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra Province. The tests were carried out using following variations of limestone; 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% of the total amount of filler in the mixture. The results of the study using limestone as filler obtained at an optimum content of 29% for AC-WC, 22% for HRS, and 82.5% for SMA. In addition, AC-WC pavement was found to the best increase in Marshall stability performance. Therefore, it can be concluded that limestone from Kamang Mudiak is most suitable to be added to AC-WC pavement mixtures.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
