Abstract Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is one of the innovative and effective technologies in many places in the world. The utilization of RAP is rapidly increasing popularity and becoming an emerging technique in India. As per IRC-120:2015, removing or reprocessing pavement materials containing aggregates that are bitumen coated is termed as RAP. These materials are gained through a process in which the existing surface pavement is reclaimed and reused after processing for reconstruction, resurfacing, or repaving. Well graded and high-quality aggregate are achieved from this process. Proper utilization of RAP with specified properties and specified percentages, not only serve as an alternative useful pavement material but also helps in reducing the usage of natural construction material, that will directly reduce the overall cost of projects. By conducting tests as per MoRTH specifications (5th Revision), the various characteristics of RAP material and fresh aggregates are observed. The main objective of the study is to carry out the performance tests: Modified Proctor test on fresh material as well as on material mixed with reclaimed asphalt pavement i.e. 10%, 20%, and 30% of total mix and to achieve optimum moisture content and maximum dry density by using Modified Proctor Test. Attempts are carried out to design a new pavement using Indian Road Congress (I.R.C-37:2018) guidelines and utilization of RAP material. Economic benefits are calculated in terms of fresh and RAP (10%, 20%, and 30%) mix material pavement.

This study analyses the possibilities of using up to 30% of reclaimed asphalt pavement as a substitute material for natural aggregate, along with fly ash replacing 20% or 40% of Portland cement in cement stabilizations with 4% and 6% of binder. The Proctor test was used to determine maximum dry density and optimal moisture content of cement-based stabilizations. The compressive strength was tested after 7, 28, and 90 days. Parameters influencing 28-day compressive strength were evaluated by full factorial design and by classification in strength classes. The results obtained justify the utilisation of waste and recycled materials in pavement structures.

Study was recently conducted at Kingston University to assess the suitability of using recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) and reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in unbound subbase mixtures. The results showed that the use of 100% recycled aggregates increased the optimum moisture content and decreased the maximum dry density of the sub-base materials in comparison with natural aggregates. Moreover, the replacement of RCA by reclaimed asphalt pavement by 50% decreased the optimum moisture content and increased the maximum dry density in proportion to 100% RCA. The effects of physical properties on 0% air void and compaction curve were discussed for each type of subbase. The CBR values of the subbase materials prepared with 100%RCA is lower than subbase mixture with 100% natural aggregates. The CBR further decreased for replaced subbase with RAP so that 50%RCA + 50%RAP is not suitable for unbound subbase from the point of CBR view. In each mix the trend of CBR value was investigated in terms of water content. This research found some significant practical points to use in site works.

Abstract: Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is a valuable, high quality material that can be replace over expensive virgin aggregates and binder that can be used for technical, economical and environmental reasons. Use of RAP can be favored all over the world over virgin material on the light of increasing cost of bitumen, the scarcity of high quality aggregates and the pressing need to preserve the environment. Overlay and maintenance resolve medium distress, but reconstruction may feasible and economical while Asphalt pavement are badly deteriorated with time and traffic. This requires the removal of existing pavement surfaces. Recycling such construction waste has benefited from economic to sustainability point of view and reduce the exploitation of natural resources. The shortage of virgin aggregate supplies along with the increase in processing and hauling cost have encouraged the use of reclaimed material from the old structure as base course construction materials and involved in regular practice in various countries around the world.

Asphalt Mix

State highway agencies recognize the environmental and economic benefits of utilizing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in asphalt mixes. Currently, most agencies assume all of the RAP binder content is available for mix design purposes. However, the percentage of available or effective RAP binder in the asphalt mix is usually less than 100% and not quantified, which could yield dry asphalt mix with a high air void content, potentially leading to premature distress. The term available or effective RAP binder refers to the binder that is released from the RAP, becomes fluid, and blends with virgin binder under typical mixing temperatures. This study proposes a method to estimate the RAP binder availability factor (BAF) which can be used to adjust the virgin binder content in RAP mixes to ensure that the mix design optimum binder content is achieved. In this method, asphalt mixes were prepared so that, after mixing and conditioning, the RAP material can be separated from the virgin aggregate, which allows for a thorough evaluation of the extent of RAP binder availability in the asphalt mix. This method was verified in a preliminary experiment and then used to estimate the BAF of RAP from different sources, and a correlation between RAP BAF and the high temperature performance grade (PG) of each RAP source was established. Finally, factors affecting the RAP BAF were also evaluated such as mixing temperature, conditioning period, the use of recycling agents (or rejuvenators), and the method of adding the recycling agent to the mix.

In this paper, cement is used to stabilize reclaimed asphalt pavement materials (RAP) and original aggregate with the same gradation. Compressive strength, freezing-thawing resistance and fatigue life of cement recycled RAP mixture (CRAPM) and cement stabilize original aggregate mixture (CSAM) are evaluated. Test results indicate the compressive adhesive strength of cement-RAP is lower than cement-original aggregate. At the same gradation, RAP has negative effect on the freezing-thawing resistance of CRAPM, and can increase the fatigue life sensitive to stress level. Therefore, for using 100% RAP, it is necessary to increase the cement content to properly improve the strength and durability of RAPM in order to satisfy the specification of cement stabilized base materials in china.
