Comparative Analysis of Cold Paving Hot Mix Asbuton (Cphma) Asphalt Mixes Reviewed from Technical Performance and Costs in the Islands of Sumenep Regency

Abstract

The implementation of asphalt concrete road work in the island area is constrained by the availability of Asphalt Mixing Plant (AMP) and mechanical rollers that are less than optimal so that the existence of Asphalt Cold Paving Hotmix Asbuton (CPHMA) asphalt mixture in packaging is a good alternative to be implemented. The limited number of small rollers allows the production of poor quality asphalt mixtures and does not meet the required standards so that a review of the adjustment of the number of minimum compaction passes is needed to produce good quality asphalt mixtures that meet standards. The purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of the CPHMA asphalt mixture against the number of passes and calculate the cost requirements for each number of passes reviewed. The method used is the comparative cause and effect method, the cause and effect relationship that will be analyzed is how the number of compaction passes relates to the performance of the CPHMA asphalt mixture with the VIM, VAM, VFB and density value parameters. From this study it can be concluded that the number of compaction passes and the type of compaction equipment have a major influence on the performance value of the asphalt mixture. To achieve the performance of the CPHMA asphalt mixture according to the required technical specifications, at location 1 with a 2.5 ton MBG1 type vibrator roller, a minimum of 12 passes of compaction are required with a cost of 2,624,323.12/ton, while at location 2 with a 1.3 ton baby roller, 17 passes of compaction are required with a cost of 2,716,911.00/ton.
