CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
You walk on the road every day, but you do not think how is the
process to make the road, especially asphalt. Asphalt also known
as bitumen is a sticky, black and highly viscous liquid or semi-solid form
of petroleum.
1.3 Purpose
DISCUSSION
2.1 Asphalt
Although asphalt is mainly used for paving roads, it can also be used for
various other purposes. The versatility of asphalt makes it such a widely used material.
Among others, it can be found in the following sectors:
Asphalt is technically not the hard cement surface we may walk or drive on,
but is actually a sticky substance derived from crude oil (petroleum). This sticky
asphalt is mixed with other substances and may or may not be heated for use in
paving roads, lining reservoirs or other purposes. Here are 3 ways to make
asphalt
1. Heat asphalt cement or dried crushed rock in a heater at an asphalt plant. The
heating temperature may be as high as 300 degrees F (149 C).
2. Mix the asphalt cement or crushed rock with aggregates in a drum mixer. The
aggregates may be fine and/or coarse. Petroleum compounds or mineral fillers
may also be added to the asphalt mixture.
3. Send the asphalt mix through a dryer burner.
Method 2 of 3: Admixing
Asphalt roads put on more than concrete roads, but many countries are
replacing concrete roads with asphalt because it is cheaper, Asphalt
paving is still less costly compared to concrete. Moreover, it takes less
time to build a asphalt road than a concrete road. Asphalt roads provide
better traction and skid resistance for vehicles. Asphalt tends to help keep
roads free from ice and snow.
2.5 The Time We Run Out the Asphalt
Bitumen which glues the sand and gravel together is an oil based
material so the answer is when the oil runs out
Cut-back asphalt concrete has been illegal in the United states since
the 1970s, but many other countries around the world still use it. This type of
concrete is the least environmentally friendly option, resulting in significantly
more air pollution than the other forms. It is made by dissolving the binder in
kerosene before mixing it with the aggregate, reducing viscosity while the
concrete is layered and compacted. The lighter kerosene later evaporates,
leaving a hardened surface.
Mastic asphalt, also called sheet asphalt has a lower bitumen content than
the rolled forms. It is used for some roads and footpaths, but also in roofing
and flooring. Stone mastic asphalt (SMA), another variety, is becoming
increasingly popular as an alternative. Its benefits include an anti-skid property
and the absence of air pockets, but if laid improperly, it may cause slippery
road conditions.
