Recycling Asphalt Concrete on State Route 36
A heater-scarifier was used to heat the old asphalt concrete and loosen the top 3/4 inch plus or minus for recycling. The top 3/4 inch that was loosened was then treated with Reclamite, combined with new hot asphalt concrete, and relaid in the roadway as a recycled mix. Air pollution appeared to be excessive from the heater-scarifier, and the final recycled mix, although looking good, produced a series of erratic test results. Performance monitored for three successive years was less than desirable due to the rapid development of severe reflection cracking. The recycled AC was somewhat less effective than a 1-inch overlay of new AC in resisting this reflection cracking.
