State four advantages of recycling asphalt pavement materials. Why can we not mix the RAP materials with aggregates in a conventional hot-mix asphalt concrete plant? Show the proper ways of recycling the RAP materials in the two types of hot-mix asphalt plants.
What are the components of hot-mix asphalt? What is the functions of each component in
the mix?
The mixture maximum specific gravity at
5.0 % asphalt binder content is 2.495. The
asphalt specific gravity is 1.030. Compute
the aggregate effective specific gravity.
Estimate the mixture maximum specific
gravity at 6.0 % asphalt binder content.

However, the method lacks a strength test to verify the suitability of the Superpave mixes. Research completed in NCHRP Project 9-19 developed "simple performance tests" for asphalt concrete (Witczak et al., 2002), currently called the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester, AMPT, Figure 9.34. The AMPT is not currently a requirement for Superpave mix design, but implementation studies are underway. In addition, the test method was designed to capture the material properties needed for the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design System, MEPDS. The equipment and associated protocols of the AMPT tests are designed to cap- ture the viscoelastic behavior of asphalt concrete. Tests based on measurement of dynamic modulus (for both of permanent deformation and fatigue cracking), flow time (permanent deformation), and flow number (permanent deformation) were selected for further field validation.
