Initial research on recycled tyre bales for road infrastructure applications

Recycled crushed glass in road work applications.

A comprehensive suite of geotechnical laboratory tests was undertaken on samples of recycled crushed glass produced in Victoria, Australia. Three types of recycled glass sources were tested being coarse, medium and fine sized glass. Laboratory testing results indicated that medium and fine sized recycled glass sources exhibit geotechnical behavior similar to natural aggregates. Coarse recycled ...

Research on the Parameters of Environment-Friendly Recycled Road Materials

The feasibility of propagating road materials in the use of contracture wastes especially contented great amount waste bricks were researched in three aspects: Performance of recycled aggregate, mechanical properties of renewable road materials, compression splitting indexes. Conclusions are as following: recycled aggregates contenting great amount waste bricks in place of natural aggregates ar...

Toughness Performance of Recycled Aggregates for use in Road Pavement

The policy of driving organization such as Highways Agency is towards the use of performance related specifications. This policy and adoption of European wide aggregate standards on the one hand, and sustainable construction pressures on the other, all strongly emphasize on further need for more developments to specifications and performance assessment methodologies inst...
