Improving the Properties of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement for Roadway Base Applications, Summary Report.

摘要

In this project, Florida Institute of Technology researchers sought to improve RAP bearing strength and reduce creep to levels acceptable for roadway base applications. Several processing methods and additives were tested. Specimens were evaluated wet and dry by strength tests, including limerock bearing ratio (LBR), unconfined compression, Marshall compression, and indirect tensile tests. Seven-day, one-dimensional consolidation tests evaluated creep deformation.
