    Comportamiento de una mezcla asfáltica en frio elaborada con arcilla expandida
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2025) Rodríguez Useche, Bladimir de Jesús; Vidal Valencia, Julián
    The increasing need to use alternative aggregates to replace natural stone aggregates in the production of asphalt mixtures has led the road construction industry to evaluate the behavior of new materials, including expanded clays. This research evaluates the physical and mechanical behavior in the laboratory of a cold asphalt mixture (CMA) made with expanded clay, in which the natural aggregates were completely replaced by Arlita, expanded clay, and the bulk density, void percentage, permeability, abrasion loss, indirect traction, resilient modulus, elastic modulus and permanent deformation were measured. A comparative method was used to analyze the experimental results with the general specifications for road construction of the National Institute of Roads of the Republic of Colombia (INVIAS); the document also presents the benefits and limitations of the asphalt mixture.
