Resumen


El presente estudio evaluó el desempeño mecánico de una mezcla asfáltica tibia (MAT) remplazando parcialmente la fracción gruesa del árido natural (AN) por árido de hormigón reciclado – ACR. Para fabricar la MAT, se utilizó un silicato de sodio (SS), el cual espumó y modificó el cemento asfáltico (CA). El SS se presenta como un aditivo novedoso que no ha sido investigado por la comunidad técnica y académica. Con base en ensayos de penetración y punto de ablandamiento realizados sobre el CA modificado en diversas proporciones (SS/CA=0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.50% en masa) se definió un contenido de SS/CA=1% como óptimo. Sobre el CA modificado y sin modificar se realizaron ensayos de viscosidad, caracterización reológica y observaciones en un microscopio electrónico de barrido (MEB). Sobre las mezclas asfálticas se llevaron a cabo ensayos Marshall, Resistencia en Tensión Indirecta – RTI, Cantabro, módulo resiliente, deformación permanente y fatiga. El SS permite disminuir la temperatura de mezcla en 20°C, generando MATs que experimentan similar e incluso mejor desempeño en ciertas propiedades comparada con la MDC de Control. Las mezclas con ACR exhiben mayor resistencia en el ensayo Marshall y similar resistencia a la deformación permanente con respecto a la mezcla de control, pero menor resistencia en tensión indirecta, al desgaste Cantabro, a la fatiga y al daño por humedad.
