Abstract:This research aims to observe the effect of applying cellulose fibre to the mechanical properties of bituminous mixtures when subjected to various loading speeds that simulate various traffic situations with fibre dosages of 0.3 – 0.5% of mix weight. The semi-circular bending (SCB) test was employed in this project, where the specimens were subjected to loading speeds of 0.25, 0.5, and 1 mm/min. The incorporation of cellulose was reported to enhance the tensile strength of the specimens up to 43.75% at the low… Show more
