Title: Moisture Resistance of Bottom-Ash Asphalt Mixes
Accession Number: 01024585
Record Type: Component
Availability: Transportation Research Board Business Office 500 Fifth Street, NW Abstract: This paper investigated the feasibility of incorporating bottom ash in asphalt mixes. The main objective of this paper was to evaluate the moisture resistance of bottom ash mixes. This objective was accomplished by performing a laboratory evaluation of asphalt mixes with three Wyoming bottom ashes. The Laboratory evaluation was done using specimens prepared with limestone and granite aggregate. These specimens were tested to determine their moisture resistance. Testing included determining the indirect tensile strength after variety of freez-thaw cycles. In addition, nitrogen analyses on both the aggregate as well as the three bottom ashes were performed to determine the susceptibility of these aggregates and bottom ashes to moisture-induced damage. The results indicate that the moisture resistance of all bottom ash mixes was comparable or exceeded the control mix performance.
