“…C and D wastes are often composed of heavy materials such as concrete, bricks, wood, Asphalt, ceramics, metals, and gypsum (Zhang et al, 2019). Generation data show that C and D debris results from construction, rehabilitation, and demolition of physical infrastructures (Balaguera et al, 2018;Pranav et al, 2020;Presti et al, 2017). A report by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (2019a) showed that about 569 million tons of C and D waste was generated in the USA in 2017 with C and D cement concrete accounting for 69.7% and asphaltic concrete constituting 15%.…”

“…LCCA is an economic appraisal tool built on deep-rooted economic principles and techniques to aid in assessing the long-run costs of multiple project alternatives over a specified period (Li et al, 2019). However, performing a robust LCCA can be challenging for reasons such as accurate simulation of roadway design life and proper prediction of total traffic on the roadway over its design life (Pranav et al, 2020).

The rate at which the construction industry explores and consumes non-renewable natural aggregates and other industrial products such as bitumen, lime, and cement during construction and rehabilitation of road pavements has over time proven to be environmentally degrading and non-sustainable. This, alongside the issues of high solid waste generation and inadequate disposal, has led to series of studies by various researchers to find methods to integrate these solid wastes as alternative materials in road construction and maintenance. This paper provides a simple yet detailed review of recent relevant studies conducted to understand the alarming rate of generation and the effects of reusing these waste materials in both flexible and rigid pavements. The review further outlines the advantages and disadvantages of the selected waste materials and compare the results with that of conventional materials in accordance with relevant standards while highlighting the performance, and life cycle environmental and economic sustainability implications. The study shows that the adoption of these materials offers efficiency in waste disposal while reducing the demand for natural aggregates and consequently, significantly reducing life cycle impacts and costs. The challenges limiting the effective practical implementation of these waste recycling techniques in the construction industry were discussed and possible solutions were suggested to encourage and ensure its utilization in road construction.

“…In Austria, two-thirds of high-volume motorways of about 4,000 km are concrete pavements [9]. France has been using concrete pavements for a long time, and it has 600 lane km of continuously reinforced concrete pavement [10]. In South-East Asia, ailand has constructed more than 5,624 km of concrete road [11].…”

This review aims to provide an insight into concrete pavement repair materials by gathering the relevant research outcomes and specifications. It provides a systematic literature review that focuses on pavement repair and types of cementitious repair material. In general, conventional cementitious repair materials can be divided into 4 categories: ultra-rapid, rapid, accelerated, and normal strength gain. The mechanical and durability properties of conventional cementitious repair materials, i.e., calcium sulphoaluminate-based, calcium aluminate-based, polymer-modified concrete, and ordinary Portland cement-based repair materials are highlighted. The paper also discusses the newly developed ultra-high performance concrete and alkali-activated materials as potential repair materials for concrete pavement due to the good mechanical and durability performance. As a final point, this review may help readers to understand and determine the appropriate type of repair material when distress occurs in concrete pavement.

“…Because of the rapid rise of asphalt price and the relative stability of cement price in recent years, using the concrete pavement can save a lot of investment compared with the asphalt pavement. It can also alleviate the oversupply of cement and stimulate local economy [1]. erefore, promoting the concrete pavement has become the trend of traffic development.…”

This paper focused on the optimization of the C40 fly ash concrete pavement, which was considered as a measure to accelerate the consumption of industrial solid wastes such as fly ash, committing to the goal of zero waste. By comparing with three groups of ordinary mix proportion, the performances (e.g., mechanical properties, durability, and brittle property) of the optimized mix proportion were evaluated via multiple mechanical and physical tests. Their air voids’ structure was characterized by the BJH method (a method to calculate pore size described by Barrett, Joyner, and Halenda), and the results were combined with the road performances of concrete to analyze the formation mechanism of high durability of optimized fly ash pavement concrete. As for the experimental results for the optimized, its 28 d compressive strength peaked at 50.8 MPa together with corresponding 28 d flexural strength at 8.2 MPa, which indicated a favorable mechanical performance for wide application in pavement construction. Except for the mechanical properties, the better durability indicators obtained after optimization also provided a more compact pore structure for the optimized. The raw materials and construction technology of the two kinds of pavements were compared. Promoting the use of optimized fly ash pavement concrete can break the situation of the asphalt pavement monopolizing heavy-haul highway and greatly reduce the industrial wastes which can be used as raw materials in the production of cement, such as blast furnace slag and fly ash. It was proved that the optimized fly ash concrete pavement can be used to replace the asphalt pavement under the premise of achieving the same working performances.
