Optimising the use of recycled materials in Queensland for unbound and stabilised products (2019/20 - Year 2)
In 2018, TMR endorsed a multi-year project under the National Asset Centre of Excellence (NACoE) research program with the aim to identify how the use of recycled materials can be optimised on TMR projects to achieve cost, sustainability and long-term performance benefits. The first year of the project, documented in P94: Optimising the Use of Recycled Materials in Queensland for Unbound and Stabilised Products Year 1 (2018/2019) (Latter, Mohammadinia & Beecroft 2020) included a literature review of existing practice in Australia. Recommendations for Year 2 of this project included sampling recycled materials from a number of suppliers in Queensland and undertaking classification and performance testing to determine compliance against specification limits. This report outlines the second year of a multi-year project where the primary objective of Year 2 was to facilitate the increased use of recycled materials in unbound pavements by updating the specification based on the performance assessment of several recycled pavement materials sourced from various suppliers in Queensland.
