 NEED FOR THE STUDY
Disposal of waste plastic is a major
problem.
It is Non-Biodegradable.
Burning results in environmental pollution.
It mainly consists of low-density
polyethylene.
Utility in Bituminous Mixes for road
construction.
Laboratory studies proving that waste
plastic enhances the property of the mix.
Disposal in an useful way. 7
 OBJECTIVES

Physical properties- Aggregate, Bitumen

and Filler.
Optimum Binder Content (OBC).
Optimum Plastic Content (OPC).
Mechanical Properties of Bituminous mix.
Comparison of Modified and Conventional
Bituminous Mixes.
