Modified Asphalt Mixtures Incorporating Pulverized Recycled Rubber and Recycled Asphalt Pavement

open access: yesCivil Engineering Journal
In the search to achieve eco-friendly techniques that ensure significant improvements in the properties of hot mix asphalt (HMA), recycled materials are being considered with greater application, coming from the pavement itself and also from artificial elements such as rubber. In this sense, the objective was to study the behavior of the mechanical and

Performance Evaluation of Warm Mix Asphalt Mixtures with Recycled Asphalt Pavement

open access: yesPeriodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2016
Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology provides not only the production of asphalt pavement at a lower temperature than the temperature maintained in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) but also encourages the utilization of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and therefore saves energy and nonrenewable resources as well as reduces emissions and fuel consumption.
