In flexible pavement construction at present days the development of new roads is being modified and the ever increasing population has raised the vehicular density from last few decades. Scrap tyres are one of the ingredient of pollution and also the disposal of scrap tyre is a problem in present days because it is not eco-friendly and non-biodegradable. The recycled scrap tyres are no longer suitable for use on vehicles due to wear or irreparable damages so reuse of scrap tyre rubber is not economical for the business purpose. In India scrap tyre rubber is used for modifying bitumen, the three grades of bitumen is developed CRMB-50, CRMB-55 and CRMB-60 but it depend on overall system of collecting scrap tyre, due to this cost of CRMB is high as compared to 30/40,60/70 and 80/100 grade of bitumen. In this study locally available scrap tyre crumbed rubber is added in percent of 4%, 6%, 8%, 10% and 12% by weight of 80/100 grade of bitumen at 160ºC temperature because of it will be easily generated at the time of flexible pavement construction. |
