Properties of pavement quality concrete prepared with coarse RAP containing different percentages of asphalt
ABSTRACTThe present study was carried out to establish the proportion of Coarse Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (C-RAP) containing varying percentages of asphalt for preparing Pavement Quality Concrete (PQC) mixes. RAP was collected from the 5-year-old pavement and separated into coarse RAP (C-RAP) and fine RAP (F-RAP) aggregates using a 4.75 mm sieve. Asphalt content in the C-RAP and F-RAP was found to be 4.12% and 4.33%, respectively. The C-RAP was immersed in the toluene solvent for a different predetermined time and asphalt content was reduced to 3.05%, 2.12%, and 1.24%. Using this exercise, C-RAP containing four different percentages of asphalt (4.12, 3.05, 2.12, and 1.24%) was produced. Then, the cement concrete mixes were prepared in the laboratory by replacing Natural Coarse Aggregate (NCA) with C-RAP varying from 25% to 100% with an increment of 25% in each type. Manufactured Sand (M-Sand)/Crushed Stone Sand (CSS) was used as a fine aggregate. Altogether, 17 concrete mixes (one control and 16 mixes containing C-RAP) were produced while keeping the water–cement ratio unchanged in all the mixes and evaluated their fresh and hardened concrete properties. As the asphalt presence in the RAP is sensitive to the temperature, the strength of concrete containing RAP at different temperatures was also examined. The current study showed that the amount of NCA substituted by C-RAP and the quantity of asphalt present in the C-RAP influenced the properties of concrete. The study also established that NCA up to 100% could be replaced with the C-RAP containing low asphalt content. Using test results, empirical models were developed to estimate the properties of hardened concrete by considering the percentage of C-RAP, percentage of asphalt in C-RAP, and compressive strength of concrete as predictor variables. The developed models were found statistically significant, supported by [Formula: see text].
