Abstract:
Construction and subsequent maintenance of pavements in good condition has become quite problematic especially in areas where soft bitumen is met with. During Rainy season the natural bitumen become failure and pose serious problem. To the movement of vehicular traffic, treatment and strengthening of bitumen appear to be the only solution for keeping the pavement of surfaces serviceable. The pavements even when constructed according to the conventional methods are failing due to the bitumen undergoing deformations during monsoon and become unserviceable. Treatment of the bitumen with Zycosoil has used recently to obtain the desired strength. In view of the present investigation, an attempt is made to conduct different types of experiments on bitumen mix with Zycosoil and to study the changes in the engineering properties of the bitumen. Penetration ,ductility ,specific gravity , flashpoint, Marshall mix Tests were conducted on the bitumen mixed with Zycosoil with different percentages such as 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3% and 0.4%.
