A Review paper on effect of various additives on performance of Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM)

Abstract

Bituminous for mix can be prepared and used in a pavement section for a bituminous binder course use different
types of additives likes as Polymers, Rubber and waste materials like discard rubber fibre (tube Tyres), plastic west and
jute fiber. Modifying bituminous mix is expect to gives higher life.
The present study objective are developing bituminous mixes for the Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM) incorporating the
plastic wastes, waste tyre tubes and rice husk ash as partial replace of the different bitumen content. In this study, the
Stability and Flow value analysis for the various DBM Grade 1 mixtures with binders and with different percentage
replacement of bitumen with plastic wastes, waste tyre tubes and jute fibre are reported.
