摘要

While recycling of asphalt is increasing, there is still lack of practical solutions for processing and homogenizing reclaimed asphalt, and designing mixtures for maximum Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) use. This paper briefly summarizes the HighRAP research project conducted in Switzerland. The findings and the developed recommendations can be used by asphalt producers and road owners to increase the RAP use in the production of new asphalt mixtures. The recommendations include a method for quantitative evaluation of RAP processing, rejuvenator selection methodology, criteria for balanced mix design, suggestions for performance-based test methods, and the maximum content of RAP for various mixtures, including polymer-modified and wearing courses.
