There is a great interest in increasing the amount of recycled material used in asphalt mixes because of the beneficial impact on the environment. This is leading to the development of different recycling procedures, from cold in-situ to hot in-plant recycling. The objective of the study presented in this paper is to evaluate cracking resistance of recycled mixes manufactured by three types of processes, i.e., cold with emulsion, hot with high penetration bitumens and hot with emulsion (half-warm mixture), using 100% of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) at different temperatures. Differences in their workability and ease of use are also analysed by gyratory compaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
