Environmental and economic considerations have encouraged civil engineers to find ways to reuse recycled materials in new constructions. The current paper presents an experimental research on the possibility of utilizing recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) in stone mastic asphalt (SMA) and hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures. Three categories of RCA in various percentages were mixed with virgin granite aggregates to produce SMA and HMA specimens. The obtained results indicated that, regardless of the RCA particular sizes, the use of RCA to replace virgin aggregates increased the needed binder content in the asphalt mixtures. Moreover, it was found that even though the volumetric and mechanical properties of the asphalt mixtures are highly affected by the sizes and percentages of the RCA but, based on the demands of the project and traffic volume, utilizing specific amounts of RCA in both types of mixtures could easily satisfy the standard requirements.

An experimental program was devised to evaluate the effect on the resistance of a hot mix asphalt, due to the total replacement of a natural aggregate (limestone — LS) by a recycled concrete aggregate (RCA). Two asphalt binders were used: conventional AC 50-70 (penetration grade) and AC 50-70 modified with crumb rubber (CRM). The mechanical properties investigated were the stability and flow ratio (Marshall test), indirect tensile strength, resistance to abrasion (Cantabro test), resilient modulus, resistance to permanent deformation, to fatigue and to moisture damage (modified Lottman test). When the LS is completely replaced by RCA, the resistance under monotonic loading, moisture damage and permanent deformation improved, the mass loss in the Cantabro test and the resilient modulus shows appropriate values, however, the fatigue resistance decreases. Besides, mixtures with RCA using CRM binder showed lower fatigue life under stress controlled tests, but much better rutting resistance.
