All over the world, highway traffic is increasing rapidly, as is the population and the road network. The country's maximum and minimum temperatures also vary greatly. Moreover, the pavements are subjected to various types of damage. Pavement binders and mixtures are a constant area of research and development for scientists and engineers. Adding fibers to bituminous mixes may improve the properties of fatigue and strength of the material. Natural fibers may be used to improve asphalt mixtures performance due to their inherent compatibility with asphalt cement and excellent mechanical properties. Also, the high stone content and relatively high asphalt content in SMA mixture led to the occurrence of drain-down of the asphalt mastic from the mixture, and this problem requires the use of stabilizing additives such as cellulose fibers, mineral fibers, or polymers to mitigate this problem and ensure long-term performance. The most public sort of stabilizing additives is cellulose fiber. Overall, natural fibers in stone mastic asphalt mixes are discussed in this paper. An additional focus is on how asphalt concrete will be affected by natural fibers, mixing techniques, and managerial decisions. According to the review, the stabilizing and strengthening impact of natural fibers on the performance of asphalt mixes have been extensively researched. Natural fibers can significantly increase the rut and flow resistance of asphalt mixtures. Adding natural fibers to pavement can increase structural resistance to pavement distress.

“…BABY et al [34] proved that waste carpet fibers could be an alternative option as stabilizing additives in SMA pavements. RAHMAN et al [35] and SHEKAR et al [36] stated that sugar cane high density polyethylene, marble quarry waste, building demolition waste, crushed rubber, cooking oil, palm oil fuel ash, coco-nut, sisal, cellulose and polyester fiber, starch, plastic bottle, waste glass, waste brick, waste ceramics, waste volatile ash and various wastes such as cigarette butts would play an important role in reducing the costs of asphalt pavement and reducing environmental pollution by eliminating the wastes in the asphalt industry for a sustainable future.…”

Bitumen draining in stone mastic asphalt mixtures has become a potential problem. Due to the storage and laying temperatures as well as difficulties in providing the necessary compaction, the temperatures of the asphalt mix cannot be lowered to prevent or reduce drainage. In stone mastic asphalts, generally cellulose or mineralbased fibers are preferred to reduce draining down of bitumen. Conventional fibers commonly used in stone mastic asphalt increase pavement costs because they are expensive.The aim of this research is investigation of textile waste used to prevent bitumen drainage problem in stone mastic asphalt pavements instead of traditional fibers. Following the determination of the bitumen content, Marshall Stability tests, Schellenberg bitumen drainage test and Indirect Tensile Strength tests were conducted to evaluate the mechanical properties of the stone mastic asphalt mixtures in comparison to mixes containing textile waste. The results indicated that it is possible to produce stone mastic asphalt mixes with textile waste that exhibits similar mechanical properties mixes including cellulose fiber. Moreover, it was found that samples prepared with textile waste exhibits advantage in terms of cost compared to samples prepared with cellulose fiber.

This research aims to utilize glycerin pitch waste as an alternative asphalt binder (extender) in Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixture. Glycerin pitch (GP) is a by-product from crude glycerol refining process from the palm oil oleochemical industry. The research method was carried out by testing the chemical and physical characteristics of GP by comparing it to pen 60/70, then testing based on asphalt binder rheology and asphalt concrete characteristics. ANOVA statistical test and Tukey-Kramer statistical grouping test were used to know the significant use of GP in SMA mixture. The variations of GP content tested to pen 60/70 were 0%, 15% and 25% by weight, then used as a binder for the SMA mixture which was tested under asphalt content (Pb) conditions based on Marshall characteristic, immersion index and drain down. The test results show that GP has the potential as an asphalt extender, with a maximum content of 22% by weight of asphalt binder or with a ratio of 1 GP: 4 pen 60/70. The characteristics of the SMA mixture using pen 60/70 and GP as asphalt binder extender, under conditions of Pb = 7% produce SMA mixture that meets the specification. Statistically, in stability characteristics of SMA, GP has a significant effect on SMA + 22% GP mixture. In the immersion index, the use of GP has a significant effect on all type of mixture, while in the draindown characteristics has significant effect on the SMA+0% GP mixture.
