Waste Building Materials to Roads in Czech Republic

Abstract:

Using waste building materials in pavements is one of the goals of transportation sustainable development in the Czech Republic. As part of research projects of the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, a project was devised, which focused on maximal utilization of waste building materials when constructing pavements. After the initial verification of properties of the recycled aggregate (especially concrete waste building material), the research focus shifted towards the utilization of these waste building materials in cement bound granular mixtures.
