Abstract

There are two different studies that are Blown Bitumen emulsion with nano calcite composite as wearing coat and cement concrete mix with miller silicate binder applying in potholes and crack fillings which gains higher strength. This study focuses on evaluating the strength of concrete mix, where up to 25% of is replaced with miller silicate binder. Compressive strength, Flexural strength were examined. The results indicate that replacing water content with miller silicate binder improves the mechanical properties of the concrete mix, including increased compressive strength and flexural strength. Specimens will be prepared and laboratory studies such as compressive strength and flexural strength are done on cement concrete mix for potholes. Field Tests such as skid resistance, mean texture depth and water seepage are proposed on blown bitumen emulsion composite nano calcite based wearing coat.
