Multiply the cubic foot volume by 145 pound per cubic foot. The result of the calculation yields the overall weight in pounds. Step 5 Divide the overall weight by 2000. The calculation provides the estimated weight of asphalt in tons. Step 6 Multiply the total weight of asphalt by the curre...
In addition, the CO2 emissions produced are lower, at about 36.1 kg per ton of CMA [12]. The virgin aggregate commonly used in asphalt mixtures comprises 95.55% of the total weight [16]. These materials are directly obtained from mines, which requires significant amounts of energy and harms...
Adding RAP percents ranging from 25% to 100% instead of the weight of coarse aggregate (Pin 2) and then adding 4% polyethylene instead of 50% RAP to the mix increased the stability to 2360 kg. This increase in stability is because of adding polyethylene (as a part of the RAP). A ...
