Paper observes research of the mechanical characteristics of the stabilized soil with different «Chimston» additives. Current work focuses on the application of the «Chimston-1» and «Chimston-2» produced by Zipo research and production company. Stabilized soil is based on local soils: argillaceous sand ground and sand clay. Chemical additives are mixed with water according to the manufacture’s recommendations. Amount of the «Chimston-1» is 0.07% of the soil. Amount of the «Chimston-2» is 0.01% of the cement. During the research plasticize effect is studied, based on maximum density and optimal humidity. Water saturation, mechanical strength under tension in bending and compression. It is established, application of the "Chimson" additives allow to increase key characteristics of the stabilized soil without increasing of the cement. «Chimston-1» additive has strongly pronounced plasticize effect which allow to increase soil compaction and decrease optimal humidity. Additive "Chimston-2" is a water repellent with a high degree of efficiency with soil stabilization.

The use of resource-saving technology in road construction material production is a current problem, the solution of which will allow us to increase the environmental and economic efficiency of the road construction industry. Nowadays, secondary raw materials are widely used in highway construction, obtained both from the waste of old road construction materials and collected from other industries. During asphalt production, up to 90% of raw materials can be replaced by reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). This technology requires residual binder modification to reduce the negative impact on the technological and operational asphalt concrete properties. On the other hand, the use of rubber crumbs or granules obtained from the disposal of old car tires in asphalt–concrete mixtures is widespread. However, some types of car tires cannot be used as raw materials to produce an effective modifier. Truck tires and tires from special vehicles are suitable for use as a modifier for asphalt–concrete mixtures. Tires designed for passenger cars do not contain enough polymer. As an experiment on asphalt–concrete mixture production using secondary resources only, a testing facility was developed. The testing facility uses hot gas obtained by burning automobile tires in a special oven as a heat source. Rubber residues from the recycling of automobile tires are used as fuel, which cannot be used to produce rubber powder or granules. RAP obtained by cold milling of the pavements of city and public roads was used as the object of the research. When studying the characteristics of the asphalt–concrete-mixture-based binder, it was found that the sulfur compounds present in the composition of hot gases change the properties of the binder, leading to a serious deterioration in the technological characteristics of asphalt–concrete mixtures. The asphalt–concrete mixture obtained during RAP processing is characterized by a narrow temperature range in which it can be laid and compacted to the required density values. After laying the pavement, quality control revealed a significant variation (the number of air voids ranged from 0.8 to 5.5%) in the average density of samples taken from the compacted layer. In addition, there were significant violations of the longitudinal evenness of the finished coating. Experiments were carried out to extract the binder from asphalt–concrete mixtures before and after regeneration. The physico-mechanical and rheological characteristics were studied and qualitative analysis of the binder was realized by IR spectroscopy. The data obtained allow us to establish the mechanism of how sulfur-containing gases influence the bitumen binder’s properties in asphalt mixtures. Additionally, the features of thermo-oxidative degradation occurring during the hot recycling of asphalt–concrete mixtures were established. A justification is also given for the need to use anti-aging modifiers to restore the properties of the residual binder.
