Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is generated during road rehabilitation and resurfacing projects. This highly valuable recycled material should be used for manufacturing fresh hot mix (HMA) new layers to ensure the highest added value minimise environmental impact. The use of RAP already common practice worldwide; however, incorporating into HMA still very minimal in Hungary. As part a researc...

Many rural highways in Atlantic Canada are in poor condition due to limited maintenance funding available. The typical maintenance strategy has been to place an overlay on the damaged asphalt concrete layer to provide a new wearing surface, but this approach does not repair the damage embedded within the pavement structure. After a certain period of time, the original cracks reflect through the...

Abstract Cold recycling of asphalt is an effective solution to reduce the environmental impacts pavement construction and operation. This approach reduces use scarce resources fossil fuels, prevents spread greenhouse pollutants in air. Despite its benefits, recycled does have drawbacks, some which include nibbling, stripping, less resistance fatigue. The additives can improve mechanical propert...
