Abstract

Every year India produces over 300 million ton industrial and agricultural waste. In recent years, many countries around the globe have started showing their interest in utilizing this Industrial waste in road construction activity. Globally various researches have been conducted by Scientists and Engineers to understand the use of this waste material in road construction with the key objectives of effective disposal of these materials to save environment and also  to reduce overall road construction cost without impacting construction quality.  This paper provides insight on  replacement of  filler with the industrial waste coming from ceramic industries in bitumen mix. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the suitability of ceramic waste as a filler  in Semi- Dense Bituminous Concrete in road construction. In this research Two bituminous concrete mixes with ceramic waste and lime to prepare. The amount of optimum binder content was determined by Marshall Stability test for samples. The mechanical performance has been  determined for Marshall Stability, deformation behaviour or flow, as well as for density and void characteristics base on prevailing Indian standards specifications. Results show that the stability values and other parameters of samples containing ceramic waste have produced improved quality in comparison to conventional materials. This replacement of conventional material like lime of Bituminous concrete by ceramic waste  will have major environmental benefits as well.
