Abstract
In this contribution, 10,000 tonnes of marble waste dumps have been characterized in order to define the physico-mechanical and mineralogical parameters and determine their feasibility to be applied as main components in road bases and sub-bases. The Los Angeles abrasion values obtained (41-53%) exceeded those permitted for the standard technical specifications. However, particle-size distribution, plasticity and California Bearing Ratio (C.B.R.)(76, 83, 100% at 97, 98 and 100% of maximum density, respectively) satisfied, marginally, those specifications. Therefore, with a simple screening, these waste dumps would be applied as granular materials in roads. This is an alternative: a) environmentally sustainable, since future crushed stone exploitations would be reduced and removed a potential environmental passive; b) technically feasible, because the carrying capacity of the granular layers would not be affected; and c) economically profitable, because adds value to a currently non useful material and reduces the extraction and transportation costs.
