METODE PERANCANGAN CAMPURAN BERASPAL PANAS DENGAN BAHAN TAMBAH RETONA

Asphalt is one of the important aspects that support the pavement durability. The amount of influence on asphalt toward pavement triggering the new alternative of asphalt or modified bitumen with some added material. One of the modified asphalt is asphalt retona. The aim of this report is to determine the proportion of each material and the optimum bitumen content to be used on asphalt mixture retona. Examination tests used include analysis of coarse aggregate, fine or mixed, marshall test, specific gravity and absorption, and extraction. Based on the results of the examination has been done, then the proportion of each material used is Bin I 21%, Bin II 21%, Bin III 26%, Bin IV 30%, cement 2% with optimum bitumen content of 4.8%. Basically this mix is feasible for use in the South Arterial Road Reconstruction project because it has been in accordance with the applicable specification
