Utilização de resíduo de fresagem de pavimentos asfálticos em bases estabilizadas granulometricamente e em revestimentos asfálticos na cidade de Manaus

Abstract

This work aimed to study the reuse of the milled residue of asphalt pavement removed during maintenance of urban roads. In this case study, aggregates and asphalt cement oil (CAP) aged, coming from damaged and subsequently milled through analysis and testing laboratories pavement were analyzed according to each material corresponding to Brazilian Standards (NBR) used in the production of layers the deck, as regards the manufacture of the base and the asphalt coating. The measurement methods for the production of milled mixtures with residual asphalt pavement and their percentages with pure soil were also analyzed, the latter characterized as a low soil bearing capacity in order to achieve the best strength, providing a durability in the underlying layers and reuse of the same milled material for asphalt coating of these layers, with significant savings on their possible applications in future maintenance. Thus, one can avail this stuff to stabilize a soil that did not meet the necessary requirements of the regulatory standards for such purposes, and intuited to give due importance to the concern for environmental issues, which are being addressed particularly sharply in today, minimizing the degradation of deposits of sand and river beds in relation to the removal of boulder, thus decreasing logistics costs, transportation and acquisition of new ones. The experimental results of recycled asphalt mixture to 100% of the milled asphalt pavement waste, evaluated in this study were compared with the results obtained for conventional mixtures and indicated that such a mixture can be used as an alternative for coating urban roads , given the conditions required in regulations on this matter. The ground reference mixtures with milled asphalt pavement residue (RFA) were compatible with the demands of a pavement of heavy traffic volume mechanical behavior. The results were satisfactory, highlighting the positive use of the RFA for application in the base layers of urban pavements. It is noteworthy that studies on the use of this type of waste in pavement, are rare in the city of Manaus and this research adds an exploratory knowledge of their potential applicability.
