Invigorate Asphalt Rejuvenator

Of the 97 million tons of RAP reclaimed, contractors reused 89.2 million tons in new asphalt pavements in 2019. This is a nearly 8.5 percent increase from the 2018 construction season and represents a nearly 59.3 percent increase from the total estimated tons of RAP used in 2009, when this annual survey was first conducted.

Recycled Asphalt 101: Scratching the Surface

Using foamed asphalt for this project saved over a month of construction time and $2.5 million from a more traditional method. And while coming in under budget was important, the amount of time the roadway was down to traffic was really what mattered for the project.

Managing Your RAP from Start to Finish

With the increase in the amount of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) used in modern mix designs, good RAP management practices need to be deployed across the entire production and paving process

Nationally, the average was more than 21%. This is just one of the findings of NAPA's survey of the asphalt pavement industry, conducted with the support of the Federal Highway Administration, on the use of recycled materials and warm-mix asphalt during 2018.

While the hot rubber chip seal (HRCS) construction is similar to a traditional chip seal, it requires a special asphalt binder distributor. Because the reacted rubber modified binder has a high viscosity, a normal distributor that would be used for an asphalt emulsion application would have had difficulties to spray the rubber modified binder.

Some recycled materials, if processed and used properly, can achieve the same or better performance than conventional mixes and the use of these materials is on the rise.

The milling and mixing rotor of the Wirtgen 3800 CR granulates the damaged asphalt layers to a depth of 18 cm. At the same time, cement is mixed in and water and bitumen emulsion or foamed bitumen are injected into the mixing chamber via injection bars. The final mix is transferred via the discharge conveyor directly to the material hopper of the Vögele paver which then paves true to line and level. Afterwards, Hamm asphalt rollers compact the pavement.
