Permanent Deformation and Fatigue of Semi Flexible Pavement Incorporating Waste Tire Rubber and Natural Zeolite
Due to repeated loads, the pavement structures will experience repeated stresses and strains resulting in permanent deformation even though the working loads are still smaller than the design load. The permanent deformation will lead to cracking and fatigue failure with the life of the pavement. This phenomenon can be reduced by increasing the stiffness, flexibility, durability, stability and water absorption of the pavement. Material modification including the utilization of waste tire rubber (WTR) and natural zeolite is one of the efforts to increase those parameters in semi flexible pavement (SFP). The aim of this study therefore, to assess the deformation and fatigue failure of SFP incorporating WTR and natural zeolite under cyclic loading. The WTR was used as an additive at the level of 3% of asphalt content while natural zeolite was used as cement replacement at the 0, 5, 15 and 25% replacement levels. Permanent deformation tests were conducted by applying wheel tracking loads with the pressure of 6.4 ± 0.15 kg/cm2 on the surface of the specimens with 1260 cycles per hour while fatigue tests were conducted on the simple supported beams with the span length of 30 cm by applying forth point loading at the frequency of 10 Hz. The test results showed that the best performance in sustaining cyclic loading was achieved at the zeolite content of 5%.
