Damage Assessment and Sustainable Manufacturing Solutions for the Bengras-Cinoyong Route

Abstract

This research explores sustainable and innovative solutions for road maintenance, specifically focusing on the repair and improvement of the Bengras-Cinoyong route. The study investigates the causes of road deterioration, including excessive traffic loads, poor drainage systems, and material deficiencies. By reviewing existing literature, this research evaluates the potential of advanced materials such as fiberglass-reinforced recycled HDPE composites and polymer-modified asphalt to enhance road durability. Additionally, it examines modern manufacturing-based repair techniques, such as hot-mix asphalt blending, extrusion-based composite application, and spray coating technologies. The findings suggest that these materials and techniques offer significant advantages over conventional repair methods, including improved tensile strength, flexibility, and reduced maintenance costs. The study concludes by recommending pilot testing, long-term monitoring, and collaboration among stakeholders to implement these innovative solutions, aiming for sustainable and cost-effective road infrastructure management.
