Compaction of asphalt pavement is one of the important processes to make good quality one. There are many laboratory-compaction methods to simulate field compaction, including Marshall compaction, Hveem compaction, gyratory compaction, and etc. The most common method used to determine the fundamental properties of asphalt mixture for design is Marshall method which is using impact energy. However, there is major difference between field compaction using kneading compaction and Marshall compaction using impact energy. Therefore, the gyratory compactor, which currently is the best to simulate the field compaction, was employed. The fundamental properties of asphalt specimen compacted by gyratory compactor and Marshall compactor were determined using laboratory test. From the tests, slag mixture with carbon black or pyrolyzed carbon black showed better performances, such as, in low susceptibility to temperature, high resistance against water and rutting, and high resilient modulus and indirect tensile strength.
