ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF BITUMINOUS MIXTURES CONTAINING HYDROPHILIC AND HYDROPHOBIC AGGREGATES

Mineral aggregate constitute 95% of hot mix asphalt (HMA) by weight. Therefore, it contributes significantly to the characteristics of the bituminous mixtures. For materials of such importance, there is a different between the properties of aggregates used. This project is to determine the engine...
