thus weakening the mix. There is no specification for MBV for filler
in India, however, in European countries such as Portugal, the
maximum permissible limit is 10 g/kg. MBV values of all studied
materials were found to be below this limit, and they are expected
to perform satisfactorily. BD (6.25 g/kg) was found to have highest
MBV value which suggested its higher moisture retention. CL (0.75
g/kg) has the least MBV followed by GP (1.25 g/kg) and CT (1.50 g/
kg). Conventional OPC (3.0 g/kg) also has MBV on the lower side.
Materials having lower German filler value were reported to
have higher Rigden voids and thus higher porosity (Kandhal
et al., 1998). It must be noted that, bitumen added in the bitumi-
nous mix can be classified as fixed bitumen (that fills the voids
in dry compacted filler) and free bitumen (bitumen in excess of
fixed bitumen). Fillers with very high porosity (very low German
filler value) can excessively stiffen the mix by lowering the amount
of free bitumen which negatively affects the workability of the mix
(Faheem et al., 2012; Melloti et al., 2013). Fillers having lower
