Abstract

There have been many ways to reduce damage to road pavements, one of which is by adding additives to asphalt, therefore, changing the properties of the asphalt mixture, especially hardness, sensitivity to temperature, and peeling. This of course requires a high additional cost. One way is to add plastic bags as an additive to the asphalt. The problem faced by Pupuk Kalimantan timur Companies is the amount of unused plastic bags left due to abundant raw materials and production errors. This research was carried out by designing the composition of the asphalt mixture, adding plastic bags with each variant of plastic 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, and 6% of the asphalt weight using the dry process method. Based on the test results, the optimum asphalt content value is 6.20% with stability value = 1381 kg, flow = 3.587 mm, VIM = 3.695%, VMA = 14.73%, VFA = 78.17%, and MQ = 391 kg/ mm and a maximum plastic content of 5%, with stability value = 1426 kg, flow = 3.83 mm, MQ = 315.85 kg/mm, VIM = 4.44%, VMA = 16.81%, VFA = 73.58%. The addition of plastic bags can increase the value and durability of the Asphalt Concrete Mixture.
