Abstract

This study was conducted to determine how much influence EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) added to Laston AC-BC has on Marshall characteristic values. The Marshall test carried out will produce stability values at the optimum asphalt conditions that meet the 2018 Highways specifications. The stability value will be used to analyze changes in the characteristics of the Laston AC-BC (Asphalt Concrate – Binder Course) mixture after adding a mixture of EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) . To determine an aggregate gradation in the AC-BC mixed layer, coarse aggregate is used in the form of crushed stone with a maximum size of ” while for fine aggregate it is a mixture of crushed stone, stone ash and sand. The additive or modifier used is EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) polymer. Next, to obtain good asphalt concrete, the gradation of the aggregate must meet the general specifications of Bina Marga 2018 which have been determined through SNI-ASTM-C136-2012. In making the test object, ± 1200 gram of aggregate and asphalt are needed so that the specified height of the test object will be produced. Through the analysis of the aggregate sieve, the weight of the aggregate required for the test object can be calculated. Modification of asphalt with EVA aims to determine the stiffness and properties of asphalt in resisting loading with a certain penetration value so as to produce a Penetration Index value which will affect the characteristics of asphalt against weather changes. Research and knowledge related to the addition of a mixture of EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) to asphalt can be further developed so that it can be implemented on types of road pavements with higher traffic density conditions.

Abstract

Designing the utility planning concept for the Ampera Medan road corridor, it starts with identifying the condition of the drainage system, traffic signs, road markings, public road lighting, and road user safety devices. Furthermore, a study of changes to road utility requirements is carried out by road management guidelines and road environmental conditions in the form of improving kindness on the road surface, installing signs and warning devices, installing flashing lights, removing roadblocks, and installing noise tape based on certain distances. This research aims to produce a design concept for road utility planning that is environmentally friendly and sustainable (sustainable road) under the guidelines of the Ministry of PUPR while still paying attention to basic human needs and economic growth. Research and knowledge related to the concept of environmentally friendly road utility planning on the Jalan Ampera Medan corridor is a contribution to scientific work that can provide benefits to the Muhammadiyah University of North Sumatra and the Medan City Government as material for consideration and decisions in the construction of environmentally friendly roads (green roads) in the city Medan.
