Abstract: With the rapid economy growth and continuously increased consumption, a large amount of tire waste materials is generated. This study attends to test the performance of asphalt concrete mix with adding the Crumb Rubber Modifier (CRM) of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25% as percentage of Asphalt Cement content (AC) in order to develop and determining the optimum CRM for hot mix asphalt design. The Marshall design was used to examine the influence of the optimum CRM content. The CRM is blended with AC using wet process. Subsequently, by obtaining low price and economic mixes that will reduce the optimum asphalt content OAC.
