The scarcity of natural resources, and energy demand/carbon footprints related to their processing and transportation, has led to the quest for alternate materials for road/pavement construction and other infrastructure development. On the other side, landfill mined soil like fraction (LMSF) forms significant proportion of mined legacy landfill waste that exists at different locations around the world; however, it has found limited applications. The present study explores the utilization of LMSF in development of novel asphalt road subbase layers for resilient road infrastructure. 30–60% of LMSF replacement has been studied, and findings based on gradation analysis, compaction tests and California bearing ratio (CBR) tests are quite encouraging. Most combinations of subbase layers studied exceed the design requirements for low volume roads in Indian scenario (rural and outer urban roads); while 30% LMSF in wet mix macadam satisfies the requirements of Indian and other international codes. The cost-benefit analysis shows significant saving in material cost due to utilization of LMSF in road subbase layer. The potential utilization of low cost and sustainable LMSF in asphalt road subbase layer would allow design of superior roads with CBR exceeding design values, resulting in better life cycle performance of road infrastructure with high resilience to fatigue effects, water inundation and overloading conditions. |
