Analisa Pengaruh Penambahan Limbah Plastik (LDPE) sebagai Campuran Aspal Terhadap Kuat Aspal dengan Menggunakan Marshall Test

Abstract

One of In the of pavement increase there are some that must be considered the quality of aggregate in use, the method of implementation, and smoke quality. This experiment aims to investigate the Marshall characteristics due to the variation addition of LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) at mixtures AC-WC (Asphalt Concrete-Wearing Course) finely graded with reference to the specification of Bina Marga 2010. This research was conducted by differentiating gradations of the test specimen and the percentage addition of LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene). Group specimen addition of LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) are represented respectively gradation middle limit and upper limit gradation. From the result of analysis has obtained the values of Marshall parameters, the value of the 1st object groups test and 2nd object groups test, for the parameters marshall. meets the specifications already determined by the Bina Marga 2010 on the asphalt level range 5.99% up 6.49%, The addition of LDPE ( Low Density Polyethylene) in a mixture of AC - WC performed at levels of 0 % ,20 % and 40 % . in this study experienced a change in parameters Marshall. The Changes that meet the standards of Bina Marga 2010 are in terms of strength stability, flow and Marshall Quotient values. While those does not meet the standards of Bina Marga 2010 are density values (VIM) cavity , the cavity filled with aggregate (VMA) and the cavity filled with asphalt (VFA) This research proves that with the addition of variations of LDPE( Low Density Polyethylene) in a mixture of AC-WC (Asphalt Concrete-Wearing Course) was affected to the Marshall characteristics, as high as the levels of addition LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) so the value of stability will increase but the percentage of the value of void content in the mix will be higher.
