The valley of Kashmir is arranged in the subtropical area however attributable to its high elevation, it is cold. Because of enveloping mountain goes, its seasons are set apart by unexpected changes. It pulls in the western precipitation in winter generally as snowfall which covers the valley from December to March, January being the coldest month. The spring season which follows is for the most part wet and the mid-year is sticky and warm. The good country ranges forestall the western precipitation which is liable for the snowfall in the valley from traverse Ladakh and Gilgit region.
Because of cold temperature, the clearing season stays restricted to long periods of May, June, July and August. The issue related with the development of bituminous asphalts in Kashmir is the control of thickness of bituminous blends during laying and compaction. Legitimate thickness can be accomplished by keeping up an appropriate temperature. The blending temperature for 80/100 evaluation bitumen (which is suggested for Kashmir) ought to be in the scope of 140 C – 155 C which can be effectively controlled in the hot blend plants. Least laying and compacting temperatures of 115 C and138 C individually must be guaranteed at the working site. On the off chance that the bituminous blend is overheated at the blending stage it loses the significant volatiles bringing about loss of its essential restricting property. Due to the enormous separation of hot blend plants from the majority of the working destinations in Kashmir and for the most part low barometrical temperatures it gets hard to keep up the base imperative laying and compacting temperatures. Here and there the bituminous blend is overheated in the hot blend plants to guarantee the base laying and compacting temperatures which is, as said effectively, exceptionally unfavorable for the blend and the subsequent asphalt surface.
Our undertaking targets examining the materialness of Warm Mix Asphalt Technology in the valley of Kashmir as a substitute to the traditional Hot blend. Warm blend black-top deals with all the above expressed disadvantages. It expands the clearing season as well as has various different focal points which makes it an immense field of examination in the cutting-edge Highway Engineering.
