Abstract:
This paper presents the effects of the utilization of waste zinc slag as filler on the properties
of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA). Mechanical characteristics of all mixtures were evaluated by
Marshall Stability tests. The specimens tested in this study were fabricated using 50%, 75%, and
100% mixing ratio based on the conventional mineral filler ratio to analyze the possibility of
using waste zinc slag in respect to stability performance. The first results gained through this
study can contribute to the encouragement of waste zinc re-use in the asphalt concrete. The
results indicate that stability of Marshall samples using with waste zinc slag within the limits in
accordance with technical specifications of general directorate of Turkish highways.
