This chapter presents the most recent and innovative testing techniques for evaluation of new composites incorporating recycled materials in civil engineering infrastructures, namely concrete structures and pavements. Recycled materials are commonly used in transport infrastructures through the incorporation in unbound and bound layers of pavement roads and, more recently, in concrete structures as well as various types of mortars. Moisture damage, affinity, durability, and mechanical performance are some important concerns within the conformity assessment of recycled aggregates, binders, asphalt and hydraulic mixes under special climate and traffic conditions. Regarding concrete and mortars, it is important to understand the influence of new recycled materials on their deterioration process. In an infrastructure produced with conventional constituent materials, concrete and mortars will probably deteriorate gradually and not suddenly and catastrophically. Usually, the deterioration process can be more relevant only after some time, depending on numerous factors such as quality of concrete and environmental and durability requirements. Thus, associated with the use of recycled materials, it is essential to determine the infrastructures’ performance in measurable terms at the time of its completion and during its service life. Therefore, a detailed survey on the main testing techniques, in relation to the main deterioration mechanisms (physical, mechanical, and chemical processes) of concrete and pavement, is presented.
