• Abstract

  Environmental sustainability and economic benefits motivate maximum use of recycled asphalt materials in asphalt mixtures. According to the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA), the United States saved approximately $2.2 billion, in 2017, by replacing virgin materials with 76.2 million tons of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and 1 million tons recycled asphalt shingles (RAS). In …

• Abstract

  The present research plan proposes a chemical and rheological approach to the analysis of asphalt binders and bio-binders used for pavement surface courses, especially involving the recycling of these materials. The project is divided into five major steps, the first of them being the definition of a methodology for the rheological characterization of the binders and bio-binders, in order…

• Abstract

  Once reused in the design of a new asphalt mixture, the reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) generates sustainable benefits and, due to the high oil prices during the last decades, it has become an increasingly common activity, mostly in countries like the United States, Germany, Netherland, and France. Despite this, asphalt mix design hardly uses more than 25% of RAP in their composition. On…

• Abstract

  Aligned with the economic aspect, with the changes in the environmental scenario, given the climatic variations and other impacts resultant from anthropic actions, milled material or Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP), prevenient from the milling of deteriorated asphaltic coatings, proved to be environmentally advantageous in restoring and building new pavement. Its reuse allows a reduction…

  Degree of blending between asphalt binders in recycled asphalt mixtures produced in laboratory and in asphalt plant, BP.IC

• Abstract

  Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is produced during the process of asphalt pavements maintenance and/or reconstruction, and it is the principal waste generated by the highway construction sector. Nowadays, the reuse of RAP during the construction of new pavements is a practice widely applied throughout the world, especially in developed countries. Only limited application of RAP have been…
