Abstract:

Currently it is important to address the re-use of building materials from construction reconstructed or upgraded roads.  Commonly used technologies cold and hot asphalt recycling are starting using to complement with technologies using cold asphalt mixtures with rejuvinators or softeners. This type of asphalt mixtures could be used in pavement constructions with lower traffic load. This thesis deals with the design and laboratory assessment of unbound and bound mixtures R-material and recycled concrete. This thesis is experimentally testing the possibility of using functional tests to optimize the design of asphalt mixture with 100% representation of R-material with a possible revival of asphalt emulsion with a rejuvenator.

Keywords:

Pavement, base layer, R-material, concrete recycled material, cold asphalt mixture, unbound mixtures, asphalt emulsion with Rejuvenator
