USE OF RECYCLED MATERIALS IN AIRFIELD PAVEMENTS. FEASIBILITY STUDY

This report describes an investigation of the economic and technical feasibility of recycling old pavements and used paving materials into new pavement construction and mantenance. It is in effect a state-of-the-art study based on literature reviews and job site visits. Four major procedures were indentified as being used to recycle or reclaim pavements and paving materials. These are: (1) removed and crushed materials, (2) removed and reprocessed materials, (3) pulverized in-place, and (4) heater-planer scarifier or remix methods.
