Mix DesignMix Design
The mix design should be based on an The mix design should be based on an absolute absolute volumevolume method, replacing mineral method, replacing mineral aggregate with tire particles of similar size aggregate with tire particles of similar size characteristics (gradation). This is characteristics (gradation). This is accomplished by utilizing the specific accomplished by utilizing the specific gravity of the aggregates. gravity of the aggregates.
