| Summary: | The main ingredient of pavement are aggregate, fine, filler and bitumen. The use
of stone dust filler at this point relatively expensive in the production process, so the
alternative filler is needed. Therefore in this study the authors used natural zeolite as
a filler. The asphalt as binder material in Indonesia using Pertamina asphalt
although there are many various types of asphalt. One type of asphalt Buton used
today is Buton Natural Asphalt Blend is 75:25, due to reasons other than its use
Related research Blend 75:25 BNA still rare, this study aims to determine the
characteristic Marshall and Indirect Tensile Strength in a mixture of Hot Rolled
Sheet Base (HRS base) with the variations of the natural zeolite filler with dust and
stone dust.
This study was limited to laboratory research by referring to the specifications of
the Department of Public Works 2010 revision 2, British Standard, AASHTO and
ASTM. Tests were performed: (1) Marshall test, (2) test the stability of residual index,
and (3) Testing of Indirect tensile strength (ITS). In this study the filler in the mixture
was varied to 5 variations of zeolite, variation 1 with 0% zeolit content, variation 2
with a 25% zeolite content, variation 3 with 50% zeolite content, variation 4 with
75% zeolit content and variation 5 with zeolite content100% zeolite content.
Based on the research results of Marshall test (stability value) on each variation
zeolite 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% respectively are 1844.8 kg
