Road construction and maintenance of deteriorated pavement has been continued since industrialization. Demand for aggregate with a good quality has been increasing from limited resources, but it is difficult to supply aggregates smoothly due to environmental protection regulations (Jo et al., 2015). Accordingly, efforts are being made in the road construction industry to utilize industrial products for the purpose of efficient use of resources and environmental preservation. Steel slag which contains a non-reactive CaO is used primarily as a material for embankment and soil covering depending on the expansion and environmental issues. On the other hand, steel slag shows a variety of performance improvements as including increased elasticity factors, increased indirect tensile strength, and improved plastic deformation resistance when handling the expansion issue with sufficient aging processing (Ali et al., 1991, Asi et al., 2007). In this study, the behavior characteristics of the slag asphalt concrete mixture were analyzed according to temperature to encourage the use of steel slag aggregate. Specimens with steel slag showed a higher initial strain than those with natural aggregates. But strain of specimens were nearly similar over the repeated temperature changes. The experimental results for specimens with these characteristics were less likely to cause the performance problems from temperature because the measured strains were relatively small than strain caused from other loads. In conclusion, it is necessary to design and construction process reflecting the behavior characteristics according to temperature to encourage the use of steel slag aggregate.
