Abstract

Now a day’s disposal of waste materials has become issue and great concern for environmental engineering due to non-biodegradable characteristic and health hazards. In this world the various wastes are produced day to day life . the normal ending periods of flexible pavement is 15 years and rigid pavement is 30 years and maintenance work for flexible pavement is high .so we have to equalizes the end period by using various waste materials. Disposal of waste is a menace and it is serious problems. Instead of disposing waste into landfills, it can be reused in flexible pavements. The tests were also performed to check the properties of the aggregates and bitumen. Some replacement percentages have been carried out based on trial and error methods. in our motte is to reduce the waste materials it is used for some purposed thing as well as to reduce the maintenance cost. if burning the waste or land filling the waste , it create air pollution and dumping the waste create hazardous to the groundwater , it pollute the water also so we are managing and creating the healthy and useful environment.
