Use of diatomite and pumice as stabilizers in stone mastic asphalt mixtures

Abstract: Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixtures are susceptible to drain down since they contain more bitumen comparing to Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures. To prevent this problem, stabilizers are used in SMA mixtures. Stabilizers are costly materials and needed to be manufactured with several processes. In this study, pumice and diatomite materials were evaluated to see whether they could be used in SMA mixtures as stabilizers. The optimum bitumen contents of the mixtures having different amounts of pumice (1, 1.5 and 2%)… Show more

“…Laboratory research indicates that using carbon fibers improves the resistance of SMAs to permanent deformations and enhances the load-bearing capacity of the surface layer [6]. The addition of glass fiber improves the properties of SMA mixtures by reducing instability, increasing flow value, and decreasing voids in the mix [7]. Furthermore, adding fiber enhances fatigue properties by increasing resistance to cracking and permanent deformation in bituminous mixtures [6].…”

“…Numerous studies have revealed that some compositions of these waste materials can successfully be reused and recycled in pavement structures. In literature, various waste materials were employed as filler material in asphalt mixtures, including pumice dust [6,7], coal dust [8], fly ash [9][10][11][12][13], marble waste dust [14,15], sewage sludge ash [16], and rice husk ash [17,18].…”

“…Stone mastic asphalt mixes are sensitive to drain down because they contain more bitumen than hot mix asphalts. For this reason, stabilizers are used to prevent the bitumen material from drain down during the storage-transportation-paving-compacting processes (Aslan et al 2018). Fibers are the one of the stabilizers frequently used in SMA (NCHRP Synthesis 475, 2015).…”
