Dissertation note: Project paper (Bachelor of Civil Engineering) -- Universiti Malaysia Pahang - 2007 Abstract: There are various types of method used to produce the Hot Mix Asphalt for road pavement such as Marshall Mix Design, Hveem Method and the latest method called Superior Performing Asphalt Pavement or Superpave. There are many problem arise related to the road endurance and durability in Malaysia Normally, road defect occurred due to high volume of rainfall that will contribute to high road maintenance cost . This study was conducted to determine the potential of oil palm chips as an additive for fme aggregate in hot mix asphalt design in order to provide the sufficient wearing and binder course in flexible pavement. In addition, these studies also focus on the evaluation of the mechanical properties of the specimens (oil palm chips) in the Marshall Mix Design Method. The flexible road pavement that to be constructed by adding 0.3% of the palm oil chips into the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) can be improved in terms of their workability, durability, stability and the strengthens. All of the related tests were conducted in the highway laboratory to collect data and determine the Marshall properties of HMA. All the information which related to the procedures, process and techniques used to produce Hot Mix Asphalt with additional chips will be explained detailed in this study. The information and the guideline used to obtain and calculate all the properties of the material for HMA to ensure the mixture produced will meet the requirement and criteria for the Marshall Mix Design also will be included. As a result, this study was successfully achieved its main objective which the oil palm chips have a good potential as an additive in fine aggregate in hot mix asphalt. Evaluation of the mechanical properties of the specimens (oil palm chips) has been achieved by interpretation the test data. -Author
