Study on Iraqi limestone aggregates in bituminous mixes
Abstract In North Iraq, there are two major sources of crushed stone aggregates, the Darbandibazian source of limestones and the Kalachwalan source. Limestones are generally not used in bituminous mixes as they are considered weak and unsuitable. In this study, these two available sources of crushed stone aggregates are rationally analysed for their engineering properties and suitability for use in bituminous mixes. It was observed that limestones do meet the Marshall test requirements of a bituminous mix and can be used satisfactorily, with slightly higher percentage of bitumen. Huge amount of locally available limestones thus have a potential for use.
