Abstract:The purpose of this research was to study the feasibility of incorporating steel slags into coarse bituminous mixtures. The objective was twofold: to reduce dependence on natural aggregates, and to provide a use for industrial by-products. The slags studied come from the manufacture of carbon steel in electric furnaces and are divided into two types: Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) slag and Ladle Furnace (LF) slag. The mixture designed is coarse bituminous concrete (AC22G), for base courses in flexible pavements.In… Show more
