Black crushed stone is a popular material that is widely used to create high-strength road surfaces. This crushed stone, after processing with bitumen and a special tar mixture, is also used for the production of impregnation, asphalt concrete and the arrangement of pedestrian roads. This is due to its special characteristics and composition.

What it is?

Black crushed stone is an organic-mineral mixture obtained as a result of mixing binders and crushed stone with certain properties and parameters on which the scope of application of this material depends. In its composition, a certain amount of crushed stone with inclusions of lamellar and needle grains is allowed, which determines its density. The composition of such inclusions in percent is from 25 to 35%, and liquid organic matter is present in the volume of no more than 4%. Depending on these proportions, crushed stone is used either as a building material for road bases, or as an impregnation.

Black crushed stone is made not only from ordinary crushed stone, but also from mineral rocks, and sometimes slags are taken for its production - screenings of their crushing. However, the condition for their use is a stable, strong structure that compensates for the fragility of non-standard grains, and a document that determines the quality of the material - GOST 30491-2012. After processing, the fractional product acquires increased strength, and its adhesion properties increase significantly. This allows you to improve adhesion with other building components of the composition.

The main characteristics of black crushed stone:

  • high drainage properties;
  • resistance to sliding and shear in the longitudinal direction;
  • good plasticity;
  • lack of cracks;
  • the ability to take large loads from the external environment;
  • the ability to seal due to the presence of air and the content of fractions of a special shape;
  • long-term storage;
  • the possibility of different types of styling, including cold, which allows you to work with materials at any time of the year.

When choosing a building material, it is important to know the exact volumetric weight of one cube of rubble, which, in fact, is its density. Its optimal parameters are from 2600 to 3200 kg per m3. And also the mass of the hard segments must always be taken into account. The specific gravity of this construction product is 2.9 t / m3 - on this basis, its delivery is possible only with the use of heavy vehicles. The required strength of the material is estimated at 80 MPA and above.

The disadvantage of black gravel its high water permeability is considered, but, in addition, it takes a long time to form a road base, especially if the laying was carried out in a cold period.

The set of the required strength of such a coating is completed only after 12 months.

How do they do it?

In their composition, different grades of black crushed stone may contain gravel, granite, bitumen emulsion or road oil bitumen. In this case, the addition of various binders is used, depending on the method of production - hot, warm or cold. The resulting types of products are used for all kinds of work involving a specific temperature regime.

The main equipment used is a mixer, into which crushed stone is placed, and then 3% of tar and bitumen mixture is added... Special active components of cement, lime, direct and inverse lime emulsions (EBC, EBA) are also sent there.If the technology is followed, the material becomes more durable, its wear-resistant and adhesive properties increase.

Each method assumes its own mixing time and components.

  • To obtain a cold crushed stone mixture, tar D-3 or D-4, liquid bitumen compositions SG, BND and BN are used. In some cases, manufacturing involves the use of astringent tar emulsions.
  • If it is necessary to make warm crushed stone, the release process provides for the addition of D-5 tar, BN and BND bitumen and a temperature of 80-120 degrees.
  • A hot type of black crushed stone is produced at a temperature of 120-170 degrees, oil and road-oil bitumen, tar D-6 are used. Later, the installation of crushed stone also occurs at a high temperature of at least 100 degrees.

Black crushed stone can be made independently if the proportions of the components are observed. A limestone mineral with fractions of 20 mm is taken as the main substance, in addition to this:

  • bituminous mixture BND in the amount of up to 5% of the total mass of crushed stone;
  • artificial fatty acids (activators) - 3%;
  • caustic soda solution, from the amount of water - 0.4%.

In addition, you will need a mixing drum with an electric drive and a heater. Usually such a container is in the shape of a pear. To unload the mixture from it, you will need a special tipper.

The production time for black crushed stone will depend on the proportions of lime and active ingredients, as well as the size of the drum.

What happens?

Black, fractional or ordinary crushed stone differs not only in the type of preparation (cold, warm and hot) and installation, but also in the size of inclusions:

  • may contain large grains ranging in size from 40 to 70 mm;
  • medium - fractions from 20 to 40 mm;
  • small inclusions, that is, chips from 5 to 15 mm.

The most popular is crushed stone with medium grain sizes. The most expensive is hot black crushed stone, which has high wear resistance, strength and adhesion. In contrast, the cold appearance of the building material does not differ in such qualities, but it can be stored for up to six months, while it does not stick together.

There is also a decorative type of rubble - dolerite, a high-strength rock, a feature of which is a glossy surface, which makes it possible to use a rare stone for decoration of the local area. This is an expensive crushed stone, which is painted in any desired color with the help of advanced technologies, intended for ennobling the garden area - paths, lawns and flower beds. Images and drawings can be applied to this material, or processed in other ways.

Application features

As a road surface, black crushed stone is used in a certain order. There are special requirements for such works:

  • the place is preliminarily cleared;
  • the upper part of the soil is removed using special equipment;
  • then a leveling layer is laid, the earth is tamped in the desired area;
  • after that, the site is covered with sand and gravel to avoid cracking.

The construction of the road base in some cases is carried out by the hot method and involves wedging. The laying temperature is important here, since it is necessary for the structure to become monolithic.

Crushed stone, laid in the way of a spell, is more reliable and durable. Large-fraction building material with dimensions of 40-70 mm is wedged once with small, pre-crushed stones and sand... This technology eliminates the formation of cracks, provides high elasticity, while ensuring immobility and increased strength of the roadway. The addition of binders is also important - their amount is calculated per 1 m3 (3 l).

It should be borne in mind that warm and hot crushed stone is placed into the base immediately by means of special equipment and transport, and then it must be well compacted with a roller, smooth roller or pneumatic.In addition, due to the strong heating, the material is susceptible to mold and mildew. You can avoid this trouble by adding a mixture of fatty acids, "Diethanolamine" and boric acid to the crushed stone.
