For resources to be used efficiently, the structures built on the earth must be long-lasting.The longevity of the roads built with a length of millions of kilometers per year is determined by the nature of the filling material, traffic, equivalent axle load, climatic effects, material fatigue, and layer thicknesses used. The fact that filling material complies with the standards and is easily available will ensure that the road construction works are both economical and long-lasting. Many building rubbles are formed from the buildings that have completed their lives in the urban transformation process. Storage and disposal of this building's rubble are very difficult. To eliminate these difficulties, the usage areas of the rubble should be increased. In this study, some mechanical experiments were carried out on the building rubble obtained from the Black Sea region, and these were interpreted. Grain density, freeze-thaw tests, Micro-Deval, and Determination of Fragmentation Resistance, tests were carried out according to TSE and ASTM standards of aggregates obtained from building rubble. The results obtained from the experiments were compared with the technical specifications of the General Directorate of Highways. It has been revealed that the analyzed aggregate can be used as road fill in highways.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
