Abstract:
This study was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of long term ageing on toughness and resilient modulus of asphalt concrete mixtures containing Electric Arc and Basic Oxygen Furnace steel slags. After initial evaluation of the properties of steel slags using X-ray Diffraction andScanning Electric Microscope, eleven sets of laboratory mixtures were prepared. Each set wastreated replacing various portions of limestone coarse aggregates of the mixture (≥ 2.36 mm) withsteel slags. The main laboratory program consisted of the determination of resilient modulus at three testing temperatures of 5, 20 and 40˚C (ASTM D4123) and indirect tensile strength of the samples at 20˚C. In order to evaluate the long term performance of mixtures containing slags, thespecimens were subjected to ageing according to AASHTO PP2 standard method. Results showedthat the peak tensile strength, area up to peak tensile strength and total dissipated energy density of the specimens containing Electric arc furnace slag were greater than the control mixtures. Fracture energy was almost the same for both mixes containing basic oxygen furnace slag and limestone.Results also indicated that the resilient modulus of mixtures increased along with an increase in slag contents in asphalt mixtures. The ratio of aged to unaged resilient modulus of the specimensdecreased upon increasing slag contents. It was concluded that mixtures containing electric arcfurnace slag exhibited less susceptibility to ageing compared with mixtures containing basic oxygen furnace slag and limestone. At 5oC, the highest ratio belonged to control mixtures, whichmight indicate that at lower temperatures, the susceptibility to ageing of the control mixtures were more pronounced
