Abstract
The objective of this research is to study the compressive strength of semi-flexible pavement by using waste tire rubber and natural zeolite as asphalt and cement replacements. The mix design of porous asphalt is started with a determination of optimum asphalt proportion with open-graded aggregate as specified in Australian Asphalt Pavement Association (AAPA) 2004. The asphalt was then replaced by 3 %, 4 % and 5 % of waste tire rubber and the Marshall test were conducted. The cement mortar with 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % natural zeolite was injected to porous asphalt specimens. The compressive strength test was conducted based on ASTM C670-91a at the age of the specimens of 14 days. The test results showed that the higher compressive strength is reached at the 15 % natural zeolite and 5 % waste tire rubber, which is 15,43 MPa.
