Rubbery waste at the end of the cycle often constitutes a threat for the environment because of their encumbrance and low biodeterioration. The purpose of the research presented is to develop the rubber fine powder as a pavement. It is interested primarily in the behavior of two types of bitumen 40/50 modified by the addition of two varieties of rubber fine powders of different grading, resulting from the crushing of the rubbery products intended for the clothes industry of soles of shoes. The objective of the experimentation is to study the influence of the added polymer on the physical properties of the ordinary road bitumen with the incorporation of the fine powder. The experimental approach is carried out using the two tests of characterization of the bitumen i.e. the softening point test and the penetration test which remain the most used to define and classify the road bitumen. It will be noted however, that the experimental investigation which is based on several tests according to the type and the content of fine powders, leads on a whole of interesting correlations.
