“…This reutilization also reduces the consumption of mined aggregates, mitigating carbon generation and the impact of the paving industry on the environment (Choudhary et al, 2020). The incorporation of waste in the use of alternative forms has shown satisfactory results in the development of pavements, according to the literature, as in the case of the use of sugarcane bagasse ash in the production of asphalt mixtures (Zainudin et al, 2016;Huwae et al, 2016;Garcia, 2017;Kumar et al, 2019;Akshay et al, 2020;Fareed et al, 2020;Ganesh & Rai, 2021), through partial replacements of aggregates or added to the binder agent.…”

Gap-graded aggregate combined with asphalt rubber is a high-performance alternative for roads with high traffic volumes which offers advantages over other conventional mixtures in terms of permanent deformation (rutting), fatigue life and texture. In this study, which made use of the already known mixture, conventional filler was replaced by sugarcane bagasse bottom ash (SCBA) at the proportion of 5% of the total mineral aggregates. The aim was improving the mechanical performance of asphalt coating and, at the same time, making sure that this type of waste will have an adequate destination. The residue, which was lighter, finer and rougher than conventional filler, changed the volumetric properties of the Marshall design, which means that the volume of voids in mineral aggregates and the voids filled with asphalt were increased considering the same volume of air voids (5.3%). Thus, there was an increase in the Marshall Stability (40%) and Indirect Tensile Test (22%) mechanical parameters. After laboratory analysis, the mixtures were applied as asphalt coating to a field of a high-traffic highway (BR-158). Field specimens showed that the modified mixture had an increase of 18% in the Resilience Modulus (4,088 MPa; 3,478 MPa). In addition, its Flow Number was 73% higher (16,707; 9,681) and its permanent deformation rate was 28% lower within 10,000 cycles in the dynamic creep test, which was corroborated by an 11% smaller permanent deformation rate in the Hamburg Wheel Tracking Device (HWTD), within 20,000 cycles (3.2 mm; 3.6 mm). Finally, it can be stated that partial replacement of conventional filler by sugarcane bagasse ash, within the established granulometric range, has proven technical feasibility both in laboratory and in the field.

Gap-graded aggregate combined with asphalt rubber presents a high-performance alternative for roads with heavy traffic loads, offering advantages over conventional mixtures in terms of permanent deformation (rutting), fatigue life, and texture. In this study, the conventional filler in the wellestablished mixture was substituted with sugarcane bagasse bottom ash (SCBA) at a proportion of 5% of the total mineral aggregates. The objective was to enhance the mechanical performance of the asphalt coating while ensuring proper disposal of this waste material. Compared to conventional filler, SCBA is less dense, has smaller dimensions, and exhibits greater roughness, thereby affecting the volumetric parameters of the Marshall mix design. Consequently, the volume of voids in mineral aggregates and voids filled with asphalt increased while maintaining the same volume of air voids (5.3%). Consequently, there was a notable increase in Marshall Stability (40%) and Indirect Tensile Test (22%) mechanical parameters. Following laboratory analysis, the modified mixtures were applied as asphalt coating on a high-traffic highway (BR-158). Field specimens revealed an 18% increase in the Resilience Modulus (4088 MPa; 3478 MPa). Additionally, its Flow Number exhibited a 73% increase (16,707; 9681), and its permanent deformation rate was 28% lower within 10,000 cycles in the dynamic creep test. This was further supported by an 11% reduction in permanent deformation rate in the Hamburg Wheel Tracking Device (HWTD) within 20,000 cycles (3.2 mm; 3.6 mm). In conclusion, the partial replacement of conventional filler with sugarcane bagasse ash within the established granulometric range has demonstrated technical feasibility both in laboratory and field settings.
