Trial mix was applied to the bitumen content variation of 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, to determine Optimum Bitumen Content (OBC) by conducting Marshall testing. The comparison of those performances was referred to as Marshall characteristics, Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS), and Immersion using Pen asphalt Pen. It is also to know the influence of the use of Starbit E-60 in the AC-BC mixture. It determines the feasibility of zeolite's stone, in substituting the andesite stone, in the AC-BC mixture. This research compares the performance of the AC-BC mixture using zeolite and andesite stones. A combination of a mixture between a coarse aggregate of zeolite Stones and Andesite is tested until how large the proportion of zeolite stones of such combinations can provide the optimum value to AC-BC layer pavement. Using a modified asphalt Starbit E-60, which has a deficient penetration value, is expected to provide better stability to compensate for the weakness of zeolite stones. Based on the preliminary test, the zeolite aggregate has a lower abrasion resistance compared to the andesite aggregate from Clereng.

In reality, it is necessary to make innovation by utilizing the coarse aggregate of zeolite stone, which is still quite widely available in the Klaten area.

The use of coarse aggregate materials as an alternative is rare.

This amount of aggregate usage results in scarcity and affects the price to become expensive. In the construction project, especially the roads in Yogyakarta and surrounding areas, the aggregate used is derived from the Clereng Kulonprogo.
