Geotechnical and geoenvironmental properties of recycled construction and demolition materials in pavement subbase applications

This report presents information on the characterization of cementitiously stabilized layers and the properties that influence pavement performance. It also contains recommended performance-related procedures for characterizing these layers and performance-prediction models for incorporation into the mechanistic–empirical pavement analysis methods. Individual chapters highlight pavement distresses of hot-mix asphalt pavements and concrete pavements, laboratory tests and model development, and model calibration. The material contained in the report will be of immediate interest to state materials, pavement, and construction engineers and others involved in the different aspects of pavement design and construction.

Geotechnical Properties of Recycled Crushed Brick in Pavement Applications

In recent years, efforts have been made to incorporate reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) into pavement base or subbase applications by means of cement binder stabilization. This approach, however, may not be an environmentally friendly solution due to the high carbon footprint involved in the production of Portland cement. Recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), on the other hand, has been widely accepted in pavement applications. The sustainable solution of blending RAP with RCA was investigated in this research in an attempt to facilitate the usage of this blend as an alternative pavement subbase material. An extensive suite of geotechnical laboratory tests was undertaken on RAP with contents of 100, 50, 30 and 15% in blends with RCA. Results of the research study indicated that RAP/RCA blends with a low 15% RAP content meet the repeated load triaxial requirements for use in pavement subbase layers. Results of field performance of a pavement subbase constructed with untreated 100% RAP, at a private haul road field-demonstration site, confirmed that it had insufficient strength requirements to meet local road-authority pavement-subbase requirements. RAP and RAP/RCA blends, although found in this study to be not fully compliant with the local road-authorities requirements, could be potentially considered for lower traffic usage, such as haul roads and footpaths.
