COLD IN-PLACE RECYCLING OF LOW VOLUME ROADS

The stabilization of existing aggregate materials in a pavement structure can be termed a recycling process when existing roadway pavement materials are incorporated into the stabilized (recycled) pavement layers. For in-place stabilization, the present pavement layers are recycled where they lay without the need to load the materials, haul the aggregates to the central plant and back, and spread the recycled mix back on the roadway area. Most in-place asphalt stabilization/recycling projects done recently have encompassed a relatively common series of operations. These can be described as the ripping or scarification of existing pavement layers; the reduction in size of the asphalt treated or chemically bound aggregate particles; the windrowing of the pulverized material; the mixing in of the new asphalt binder; the spreading of the recycled material; and the compaction of the finished asphalt treated layer.
