The asphalt layer of the non-rigid pavement can be destroyed in various ways. This is due to the repetitive operation of traffic loads, especially at urban intersections with large numbers of heavy vehicles. If these loads are not calculated correctly in the composite design, deformations such as alligator cracking will occur. This type of excessive surface damage results in poor usability, safety and user comfort. Conventional asphalt mixture has tensile strength, due to the requirements exceeding the properties of ordinary asphalt layer in recent times, it should be improved by adding additives. For such reason, in this study, effects were obtained by simultaneously using 25% steel slag and 0.2% polypropylene fiber as an alternative to aggregates in asphalt mixtures for the reduction of cracks and fatigue in the tested asphalt concrete layer. These improvements are due to a better bond between the aggregates created by the addition of slag and a higher energy absorption capacity of the fibers in the asphalt mix due to higher tensile strength. Two asphalt-mineral mix projects have been implemented. The first project corresponds to a traditional asphalt mix with aggregates from the Piedralisa quarry, one of the quarries closest to the study site in La Victoria, Lima. The second structure is made with the same ingredients, plus polypropylene fibers and a steel slag filler. In addition, the two samples were compared using Marshall flow and stability tests, as well as indirect tensile tests. Finally, it was found that the addition of steel slag and polypropylene fibers optimized the stability of the modified Marshall sample by 37% and the flowability by 17.97%. It was also observed that the modified briquettes had a TSR of 91.8%, slightly higher than the 88% obtained for the conventional mixture. This value is related to a better fatigue life of the sintered material and a better resistance to deterioration of the asphalt layer by moisture and/or deformation under the influence of loads transmitted through it.
