Given the defects of bitumen in asphalt mixtures particularly exposed to moisture, this study mainly aims to investigate the relationship between qualitative and quantitative results of moisture susceptibility tests on asphalt mixtures modified by ZycoTherm, nanoclay, nanosilica and SBS. The Marshall stability, modulus of resilience and indirect tensile strength tests are carried out. Boiling water and SEM qualitative tests are also used. Eventually, the qualitative tests results are digitalized through image processing by MATLAB and compared with the moisture susceptibility results of indirect tensile strength test. For modulus of resilience testing, the results show that this modifier has the maximum impact on Marshall stability, improving it by about 23%. For moisture susceptibility testing, the nanosilica-modified mixture has the maximum effect among anti-stripping additives, with an improvement by about 20%. An investigation into the results of SEM images and boiling water test via MATLAB indicates the high accuracy of SEM images and their results show the most compatibility with the results of quantitative data.

“…Recycled PET strips are utilized for soil stabilization, enhancing resilience modulus. These strips reinforce the soil, increasing its load-bearing capacity and overall stability [138]. With the incorporation of PET strips, the soil's resilience modulus is significantly improved, ensuring long-term durability.…”

The waste management of plastic has become a pressing environmental issue, with polyethylene terephthalate (PET) being one of the major contributors. To address this challenge, the utilization of recycled PET fibers and strips in geotechnical engineering applications for soil stabilization has gained considerable attention. This review aims to provide a comprehensive study of the geotechnical engineering properties of recycled-PET-reinforced soils. The review examines various factors influencing the performance of PET-reinforced soils, including PET percent content, fiber length, and aspect ratio. It evaluates the mechanical properties, like shear strength, compressibility, bearing capacity, hydraulic behavior, and durability of recycled-PET-reinforced soils. The findings reveal PET reinforcement enhances shear strength, reduces settlement, and increases the bearing capacity and stability of the soil. However, it is observed that the incorporation of recycled PET fibers and strips does not lead to a significant impact on the dry density of the soil. Finally, an environmental and cost comparison analysis of recycled PET fibers and strips was conducted. This review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and practitioners involved in the field, offering insights into the geotechnical properties of PET-reinforced soils and outlining future research directions to maximize their effectiveness and sustainability.

“…Naturally, any change in the properties of these two components will afect the properties of the produced mixture. Although bitumen constitutes a relatively smaller portion of an asphalt mixture, its modifcation can have great impacts on many properties and potential failures of the mixture [2].…”

Over the years, there have been many studies on the performance improvement of asphalt mixtures using different materials and additives, especially those of the recycled variety, because of the environmental benefits they bring to the design. This study investigated the properties of asphalt mixtures made with different amounts of calcium lignosulfonate (CLS), which is a waste product, and used the Balanced Mix Design (BMD) approach to determine the appropriate mix design for CLS-containing mixtures. In this process, the results of the dynamic creep test were used as a measure of rutting resistance, the results of the indirect tensile test were used as a measure of moisture susceptibility, and the results of the Illinois Flexibility Index Test (IFIT) and Indirect Tensile Cracking Test (IDEAL-CT) were used independently as a measure of cracking resistance. On the other hand, since previous studies have suggested that CLS has antiaging properties, the specimens were made and tested in two groups: those with long-term aging and without long-term aging. So the objective was to determine the amount of CLS that should ideally be used as a bitumen additive in aged and unaged asphalt mixtures. The results showed that using 15% or 20% CLS will always yield acceptable outcomes in terms of BMD criteria for both aged and unaged conditions. However, a CLS content of 10% may also be acceptable for both aged and unaged conditions if IDEAL-CT results are used as the measure of cracking resistance.
