Abstract

- Waste disposal problem leads to negative effects on environment, health and economy. Recent years, recycling and reusing of waste materials in various sectors have been implemented to solve this problem. This experimental study was conducted to demonstrate the possibility of using marble wastes as a substitute rather than natural aggregates in hot mix asphalt (HMA) production. The marble wastes were crushed and ground to obtain fine aggregates. Based on experimental evidences, it can be stated that the use of recycled marble aggregate (RMA) instead of virgin aggregate (VA) as a fine aggregate is promising in many applications where cost and environmental aspects are primarily considered.
