ASPHALT PAVEMENT COLD RECYCLED IN TWO LAYERS

The upper four inches of an old asphalt pavement was milled, reprocessed and windrowed along one shoulder as the first step in a double-layered, cold recycling project in Kansas. Then the remaining asphalt and six inches of subgrade were cold processed in place before the windrowed mix was spread, compacted and topped with new hot mix. "Instead of just overlaying old pavements, we repaired the base first, then rebuilt the pavement from that base up," said Jim Powell, general manager of Allied, Inc., Hays, Kan. "In addition to building a better pavement, it conserved aggregate and was more cost effective."
