Quantitative evaluation of low-temperature performance of sustainable asphalt mixtures and binders containing recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) and rejuvenators
The utilization of recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) in HMA pavement applications was investigated via Disk-shaped Compact Tension (DC(T)) mixture testing and an acoustic emission (AE) based technique for estimating the embrittlement temperature of RAS-modified mixtures and asphalt binders prepared …

Investigation of cracking resistance of recycled Superpave mixtures
… use of economical and environmentally friendly recycled asphalt materials has become increasingly popular for asphalt pavement construction. Although reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) are typically used in hot-mix asphalt, increasing the amount of RAP and RAS …

Influence of Recycled Asphalt Shingles on Asphalt Binder Content, Mixture Stiffness, and Laboratory Rutting Performance
<p>Recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) is a technology in which pavement costs can be reduced significantly and pavement properties may be enhanced. Also, incorporating shingles into pavements reduces the impacts of waste shingles in landfills, preserving our environment. However, for this new …

Cracking potential of short- and long-term aged binder with various levels of ABR
It is widely accepted that using reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) could improve the sustainability of asphalt concrete (AC), in terms of cost savings and environmental factors. This should be only valid when short- and long-term pavement performance are not …

Performance analysis of asphalt mixtures modified with ground tire rubber and recycled materials
… research has been done on rubber-modified asphalt due to its distinct performance benefits, resulting in advancements in the existing rubber modifier technologies. This study focuses on two such new rubber-modifier technologies- an Engineered Crumb Rubber (ECR), and a terminal-blend Rubber …

An analysis of impact factors on the Illinois flexibility index test
The use of recycled materials in asphalt pavements has become widespread in recent years. Materials such as recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) have been incorporated into the material design of typical pavements. The use of these materials is both economically and …

Effect of specimen geometry and test configuration on the fracture process zone for asphalt materials
In the United States and elsewhere in the world, recycled materials are commonly incorporated into asphalt mixtures, to provide environmental and economic benefits by decreasing the use of virgin materials, such as natural or quarried aggregates and asphalt binder, in newly designed asphalt …

Impact of recycled asphalt shingles on asphalt concrete characteristics
The use of recycled materials in asphalt mixtures such as reclaimed asphalt pavements (RAP) and more recently recycled asphalt shingles (RAS) have become widely accepted in the United States as a replacement for virgin asphalt binder or virgin aggregates. However, the economics and the challenges …

Evaluation of viscous effects in crack tip fields in recycled asphalt pavement materials using digital image correlation
… work, we investigated the fracture behavior of asphalt, a heterogeneous mixture of hard aggregates (usually rock) with a polymeric binder (also called asphalt), used in paving applications. Specifically we studied the dependence of asphalt fracture response on loading rate, temperature, and …
