Bitumen, a viscous and adhesive substance derived from crude oil, is a vital component in the construction industry. It is primarily used as a binder in road construction and for waterproofing purposes. In road construction, bitumen acts as a binder for aggregates, providing durability and resistance to heavy traffic and harsh weather conditions. It also serves as a waterproofing membrane, protecting structures from water penetration. Bitumen is used in roofing materials due to its weather resistance and ease of installation. While bitumen offers valuable properties, its extraction and use can have environmental impacts, leading to efforts to develop sustainable alternatives. In summary, bitumen is a versatile material essential for construction, with ongoing focus on sustainability and environmental improvement.
