The Performance Evaluation and Control of Recycled Asphalt Mixture in Cold Recycling Project

Abstract:

The recycled asphalt mixture was analyzed by the microstructure, grading variability and agglomerate degree evaluation from the Guaxing road. The results showed that some aggregate was more in quantity and smaller in the variation for the 9.5mm to 0.6mm material of recycled aggregate; the fineness modulus ratio (FMR) was 0.89, so the agglomerate degree of recycled asphalt mixture is relatively small, which had a little effect on the strength of the cold recycled mixtures; the gradation and unconfined compressive strength test of cement stabilized wasted asphalt mixture were made at different blending ratios; the reasonable range of the cold recycled utilization was 20% to 40% for the recycled old materials in Guaxing road.
