Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips. More specifically, the present invention relates to a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips for constructing a special pavement suitable for parks, promenades, jogging roads, etc. by utilizing wood chips and sawdust discharged from a sawmill or the like. .

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, it is well known that wood chips have been used for pavement such as a training course for racehorses because they have appropriate elasticity.

In recent years, it has been noted that wood chips have appropriate elasticity and water permeability, and it has been proposed to use them as materials for special paving such as promenades and jogging roads. . For example, JP-A-2-24850
There is No. 5 publication. This is a mixture of wood chips or wood fibers mixed with sand or volcanic ash, paved on the roadbed, and the surface is treated by applying or spraying synthetic rubber or synthetic resin adhesive as a stabilizer on the surface. As a pavement, pavement with excellent elasticity and water permeability can be obtained.

[0004]

However, a pavement in which wood chips or wood fibers mixed with sand or volcanic ash are laid on the roadbed and the surface is treated with a synthetic rubber or synthetic resin adhesive is Since only the surface of the pavement is solidified, peeling easily occurs on the surface with the lapse of time, and the surface peeling has a drawback that the pavement is immediately damaged.

On the other hand, the sawdust discharged as a by-product from a sawmill or the like is partly used as fuel, a base material for building boards, a floor material for tatami mats, a base material for cultivating mushrooms, and the like, like the wood chips. ing. In addition, in order to effectively utilize sawdust, diversion to pavement is also an issue.

Therefore, using wood chips and sawdust,
There is a demand for the advent of a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips for constructing a special pavement that is excellent in its characteristics and excellent in durability.

[0007]

The object of the present invention is to meet such a demand, and by adding and mixing a bituminous binder to wood chips, sawdust, fine aggregate and the like, It is intended to provide a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips, which is capable of constructing a special pavement having excellent elasticity and durability.

That is, the gist of the present invention is a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips, characterized in that a bituminous binder is added to and mixed with the wood chips.

Next, the room temperature pavement mixture using the wood chips of the present invention will be described in detail.

The wood chips used in the present invention are wood chips discharged from a sawmill mainly for treating thinned wood, which have been conventionally used as pulp chips, but imported pulp is more expensive. Since it is cheap, it is rarely used for pulp. Therefore, the present invention provides
It also plays a part in the wood chip processing. The wood of the wood chips used in the present invention is cedar, hardwood, or Karamatsu, and the size thereof is approximately 5 to 8 cm in length and 2 in width.
The thickness is about 3 cm or less and the thickness is about 3 to 5 mm. Needless to say, other various wood chips can also be used. For example, wood chips obtained by crushing construction waste materials into an appropriate size can be used.

The sawdust used in the present invention is sawdust mainly discharged as a by-product from a sawmill. Sawdust is useful in combination with wood chips to increase the stability of the mixture when the use of wood chips alone results in too large a gap between the wood chips and the mixture lacks stability. The amount of sawdust used is usually
The volume ratio is about 0 to 10%. If the amount of sawdust exceeds 10%, the effect of sawdust on the wood chips becomes too large, and the stability of the mixture is rather reduced.

The fine aggregate used in the present invention is generally a fine aggregate described in "Asphalt Pavement Outline" issued by the Japan Road Association, and includes crushed stone, crushed stone, gravel, steel slag, 2.3 for sand and other similar granular materials
It is an aggregate that passes through a 6 mm sieve and stops on a 0.075 mm sieve. Other, as the granular material similar to this, for example, Loxobite, artificial fired aggregate, aluminum powder,
There are ceramic grains, light-colored aggregate, emery, silica sand, fired foam aggregate, artificial lightweight aggregate, and so on. The amount of fine aggregate used is
The volume ratio of wood chips as a mixture of sawdust and fine aggregate is usually about 0 to 30%. If the amount of the mixture of sawdust and fine aggregate exceeds 30%, the influence of the mixture of sawdust and fine aggregate becomes too strong for the wood chips, and it is difficult to construct a pavement with excellent elasticity. .
Further, the mixing ratio (volume ratio) of sawdust and fine aggregate is arbitrary as long as the ratio of sawdust to the wood chips (volume ratio) is 10% or less.

The bituminous binder of the present invention includes asphalt emulsion, rubber asphalt emulsion, modified asphalt emulsion (emulsion modified with rubber or resin), cutback asphalt, modified cutback asphalt (rubber, resin, etc.). And the like) can be exemplified. Of these, rubber asphalt emulsions are preferably used in the present invention.

The rubber asphalt emulsion is classified into cationic type, anionic type, nonionic type, clay type and the like depending on the kind of the surfactant used as an emulsifying agent. The rubber asphalt emulsion used in the present invention is as follows:
Any type of rubber asphalt emulsion can be used.

Examples of the asphalt used in the rubber asphalt emulsion include natural asphalt, straight asphalt, blown asphalt, semi-blown asphalt, solvent deasphalting asphalt (eg, propane deasphalting asphalt).

The rubber used in the rubber asphalt emulsion includes, for example, natural rubber, catavac, cyclized rubber,
Styrene / butadiene rubber, styrene / isoprene rubber, isoprene rubber, polyisobutylene rubber, butadiene rubber, chloroprene rubber, butyl rubber, halogenated butyl rubber, chlorinated polyethylene, chlorosulfonated polyethylene, ethylene propylene rubber, EPT rubber, alfin rubber, styrene / Butadiene block polymerized rubber,
Examples include styrene / isoprene block polymerized rubber.

The above-mentioned asphalt and rubber can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

The rubber asphalt emulsion may be produced by a conventional method. Generally, rubber asphalt produced by a premix type method in which one or more of the above-mentioned asphalt is mixed with one or more of the above-mentioned rubber is used as an emulsifier, dispersant, stabilizer, etc. Is used, and is produced by emulsifying and dispersing in water. Of course, when a latex type, an emulsion type or an aqueous type is used among the above rubbers, a post-mix type manufacturing method in which it is directly mixed with an oil-in-water type asphalt emulsion may be used.

The compounding ratio of asphalt and rubber in the rubber asphalt emulsion is not particularly limited,
Generally, it is preferable that the amount of rubber is in the range of 25 to 100 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of asphalt. When the amount of the rubber is less than 25 parts by weight, the adhesiveness and gripping power of the rubber asphalt to the wood chips after the dispersion and curing of the rubber asphalt are inferior.
If it exceeds 0 parts by weight, the performance becomes unnecessarily high and it is not economical.

The solid content of the rubber asphalt emulsion is
The range of 50 to 85% by weight is preferable. When the solid content is less than 50% by weight, the amount of the rubber asphalt emulsion to be used must be increased in order to exert the performance of the mixture, so that the rubber asphalt emulsion may flow out during the paving of the mixture, or the curing time may be delayed. While stability cannot be expected, when the solid content exceeds 85% by weight, the rate of decomposition and curing of the rubber asphalt emulsion becomes faster and the workability becomes worse. As the asphalt in the rubber asphalt emulsion, it is preferable to use one having a penetration degree (25 ° C.) of about 40 to 300 in consideration of the characteristics after decomposition and curing.

The amount of the rubber asphalt emulsion used is 2 as a solid content based on 100 parts by weight of the dry weight of each of wood chips, a mixture of wood chips, sawdust and fine aggregate.
The range of 0 to 40 parts by weight is preferred. If the amount of the rubber asphalt emulsion used is less than 20 parts by weight as the solid content, the amount of the binder will be insufficient, and the stability of the pavement will be reduced. If the amount exceeds 40 parts by weight, flash may occur at high temperature in summer and it is not economical.

The cement used in the present invention is, for example, ordinary Portland cement, early strength Portland cement, super early strength Portland cement, moderate heat Portland cement, white Portland cement, blast furnace cement, silica cement, fly ash cement, alumina cement. , Expanded cement, sulfate resistant cement, jet cement, blast furnace colloidal cement, colloidal cement, ultra-rapid cement and the like. In addition, commercially available special cement can also be used.

The use of cement is effective in adjusting the pot life and set time of the paving mixture. When the rubber asphalt emulsion is used as the bituminous binder, the amount of cement is usually preferably 15 to 60 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the rubber asphalt emulsion. When the amount of cement is less than 15 parts by weight, the curing of the paving mixture is slow and the stability is poor, whereas when the amount of cement exceeds 60 parts by weight, the curing time of the paving mixture is fast. It becomes too much and the workability deteriorates. In addition to cement, known cement admixtures, for example, shrinkage compensation material, hardening accelerator, hardening retarder, dispersant, air entraining material, thickener,
A water reducing agent, a filler and the like can be used in combination. Cement may not be used depending on the type of bituminous binder. For example, it is not used in cutback systems.

The pigment used in the present invention is an inorganic pigment, an extender pigment, an organic pigment or the like, and, for example, a red pattern is generally used. The pigment is used when the pavement is colored in order to improve the landscape. The amount of the pigment used varies depending on the type (for example, color type) and the type of the bituminous binder, but when a rubber asphalt emulsion is used as the bitumenous binder, the solid content is 100 parts by weight,
Usually, it is about 5 to 50 parts by weight.

In addition, as a method of coloring the pavement, there is also a surface treatment method in which a color aggregate or a light-colored aggregate is sprinkled on the pavement surface paved with the room temperature type pavement mixture using the wood chips of the present invention.

Table 1 shows typical combinations of materials that harden the room temperature pavement mixture using the wood chips according to the present invention. Of course, the combination of each material is shown in Table 1.
It is not limited to those shown in (1), and for example, there is a combination in which cement is not added.

[0027]

[Table 1]

Next, the case of the combination (c) shown in Table 1 will be described as an example of the method for adjusting the mixture for room temperature pavement using the wood chips of the present invention.

First, the required amount of wood chips and fine aggregate is put into a pug mill mixer, and after it is confirmed that the wood chips and fine aggregate have been uniformly mixed, the required amount of cement is added. Then, when the cement is sufficiently mixed, a required amount of the bituminous binder (rubber asphalt emulsion) is added and mixed in the mixer for about 20 to 30 seconds, thereby using the wood chips of the present invention at room temperature. A paving mixture can be obtained. If the wood chips and fine aggregates are too dry before adding the rubber asphalt emulsion, add water as necessary to adjust the pot life and curing time of the mixture. You can The room temperature pavement mixture using the wood chips of the present invention can be prepared in the same manner as above for other combinations.

The room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips according to the present invention is spread on a base, for example, a crushed stone roadbed by hand, and compacted by a compacting machine capable of compacting appropriately. It will be paved as a highly elastic surface layer such as parks, promenades and jogging roads.

[Table 2]

[0034]

[Example 1] In the laboratory, a room temperature pavement mixture using wood chips was prepared in a mixing ratio shown in Table 3, and a physical property test (evaluation of elasticity, impact absorption, etc.) was conducted on the mixture. .

1) Preparation of Specimen The preparation of the specimen was carried out according to the preparation of the specimen for wheel tracking test of the asphalt mixture for paving. That is, it was prepared by making a mixture with a test asphalt mixer and rolling it with a roller compactor. However, the number of times of rolling was 5 times for reciprocation because the elasticity of the mixture was strong. Further, the specimen was aged at room temperature for 7 days and then subjected to the test.

2) Physical Property Test (Evaluation Test of Elastic Repulsion / Impact Absorption) a) SB Repulsion Test The purpose is to evaluate elastic repulsion. Two
When a steel ball having a diameter of 1 inch is freely dropped from a height of 100 cm at 0 ° C., the height of bouncing (SB coefficient) is measured. B) GB repulsion test The purpose is to evaluate impact absorption. Two
At 0 ° C., when the golf ball is freely dropped from a height of 100 cm, the height (GB coefficient) at which it bounces is measured.

[0037]

[Table 3]

In addition, a slip resistance test (slip resistance test with a portable tester) and a water permeability test (field water permeability test) were performed.

The test results are shown in Table 4 and FIGS. 1, 2 and 3.
As shown in FIG.

[0040]

[Table 4]

From the above test results, the room temperature pavement mixture using the wood chips of the present invention can be evaluated as follows.

1) Elastic Repulsion and Impact Absorption Evaluation Table 4 is a table summarizing the test results shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4. From Table 4, the SB coefficient, GB
The coefficient of the rubber asphalt emulsion mixture is lower than that of the urethane type resins A and B, and the rubber asphalt emulsion mixture has both elastic resilience and impact absorption compared to the urethane type mixtures A and B. It turns out to be small. In addition, a diagram showing the relationship between the SB coefficient and GB coefficient of various paving materials by evaluating the elastic properties in total (elastic resilience / shock absorbency) (the magazine "Asphalt" No. 169 of the Japan Asphalt Association, Fig. 5 was created by displaying the results of each test in (issued in October 1991). As a result, the rubber asphalt emulsion mixture has a coefficient of combining clay system (for example, soil tennis court) and asphalt elastic pavement using cork or rubber chips. It can be understood that it is similar to pavement. Therefore, the rubber asphalt emulsion mixture is in a softer state and has a more natural feeling from the viewpoint of walking.

2) Slip resistance test The slip resistance is the same value for both the rubber asphalt emulsion mixture and the urethane resin mixture A and B, and is a value close to that of dense grain asphalt concrete.

3) On-site water permeability test Rubber asphalt mixture, urethane resin mixture A, B
Target value of permeability coefficient (1 × 10 ^-2 cm / sec)
Is satisfied, and the water permeability is sufficiently ensured.

[0045]

[Example 2] Regarding the composition (A) carried out in Example 1,
A colored mixture was made and a small-scale test pavement was actually conducted on the premises.

The production of the mixture was carried out according to the following procedure with a 100 kg kneading pug mill mixer installed on site. That is, 21 kg of cedar chips (11.2 g in terms of dry weight) in a natural water content state (water content ratio of 46.4%) were put into a pug mill mixer, and subsequently 25 K of dry coarse sand.
Then, 3 g of ordinary Portland cement and 2.4 kg of rouge are added and sufficiently kneaded and mixed, and then 12 kg of rubber asphalt emulsion is added and mixed for about 30 seconds, and immediately thereafter. It was manufactured by the procedure of discharging from a mixer.

The prepared mixture was subdivided into prepared unicycles and transported to the pavement site. As a paving site, part of the pavement on the premises (asphalt concrete) was used, and after cleaning the surface, asphalt emulsion PK-4 was sprayed at a rate of 0.4 L / m ² as a tack coat.

Next, the mixture was paved with a thickness of 10 cm. The leveling of the mixture was done by hand using a scoop and rake, then lightly rolled with a vibro plate to finish. The smoothness of the guide was good and the work was easy. The finished state was also good, and after 2 hours, the mixture had almost solidified to form a stable pavement, and the pavement had a bright maroon color. The weather conditions at the site were fine and the temperature was 30 ° C.
