- Abstract
Using reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in road infrastructures is crucial for mitigating the environmental impact while controlling the construction costs. However, poorer low temperature performance may be experienced for mixtures containing RAP. In this paper, the effect of RAP on the material response at low temperature is investigated through mixture creep testing with the bending beam rheometer. Three different mathematical approaches are selected for further evaluation in combination with simple statistical analysis. Based on the experimental data, creep stiffness, m-value, relaxation modulus, thermal stress, and critical cracking temperature are computed and compared. As a result, no differences are found between the virgin mixture and that designed with 15% of RAP. Poorer performance is observed when more than 25% of RAP is incorporated; however, no significant variation was observed for a further increase up to 40% suggesting that higher amount RAP could be used depending on traffic level and climate.
