Abstract : Road damage generally occurs due to weather factors, vehicle loads, and poor pavement mix quality. The quality of the pavement mix can be improved by adding filler to the asphalt concrete mixture. Optimal filler content can improve Marshall characteristics and increase deformation resistance. To improve the quality of the asphalt concrete mix, limestone filler is added. The limestone used in this study was Jaddih limestone from Bangkalan Regency. Limestone contains calcium carbonate (CaCO3). CaCO3 is the most stable crystalline phase and is widely used in industry. The CaCO3 content of limestone is expected to act as a catalyst to improve the quality of the asphalt concrete mix.

Keywords : Asphalt, Filler, Jaddih Limestone, Deformation Resistance.
