ABSTRACT

Several factors that must be considered for the performance of porous asphalt mixtures using b-5/20 Asbuton are homogeneity of asphalt content in granular Asbuton, water content of Asbuton granular, mixture composition, combined aggregate gradation, temperature of aggregate in dryer system, method of mixing, mixing time, and compaction system. All the kind of that variable will affect mixture properties, so every single factor must be known by technician laboratory and quality engineer in the field. This research, will present an effective method that was applied to the mixing process in the Asphalt Mixing Pant (AMP), specifically the stages, temperature and mixing time based on laboratory test results which resulted in the highest performance of a porous asphalt mixture for heavy traffic, namely Marshall stability > 3600 kg, cavity volume > 8%, CL < 20% and AFD < 0.3%. This research uses dry method with varying the aggregate heating and mixing time in the mixer. The selection of the appropriate method is carried out based on the performance of the mixture as mention above. Based on the results of the analysis, the use dray method with aggregate temperature of 190℃, and time mixing 10 second for granular Asbuton in the mixing plant (pugmill) can be said. And the whole mixture of aggregate, granular Asbuton and asphalt is 45 seconds. So using the correct mixing method system will produce a porous asphalt mixture that is strong and durable to support heavy traffic loads.
