Skid resistance performance of asphalt wearing courses with electric arc furnace slag aggregates

Fotini Kehagia

Highway Laboratory of Civil Engineering Department, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece, fotini{at}hermes.civil.auth.gr

Metallurgical slags are by-products of the iron and steel industry and are subdivided into blast furnace slag and steel slag according to the different steel-producing processes. In Greece, slags are mostly produced from steelmaking using the electric arc furnace process, and subsequently are either disposed in a random way or utilized by the cement industry. Steel slag has been recently used, worldwide, as hard aggregates in wearing courses in order to improve the skidding resistance of asphalt pavements. At the Highway Laboratory, Department of Civil Engineering of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki research has been carried out in the field of steel slags, and especially in electric arc furnace (EAF) slag, to evaluate their possible use in highway engineering. In this paper, the recent results of anti-skidding performance of steel slag aggregates in highway pavements are presented.

Key Words: Steel slag • aggregates • skid resistance • wmr 1389—9
