Pavement Recycling
Guidelines for State and Local Governments. Federal
Highway Administration Report FHWA-SA-98-042, December
1997.
The above referenced comprehensive manual on asphalt pavement
recycling was prepared by Prithvi S. Kandhal, Associate Director, and Rajib
B. Mallick, Senior Research Associate, National Center for Asphalt
Technology (NCAT), Auburn University, Alabama, USA. The project was
sponsored by the US Federal Highway Administration. This manual was
used by Kandhal and Mallick to conduct field workshops throughout the US
to train highway engineers of state and local governments, contractors, and
consultants. Twelve two-day workshops were conducted by them in different
parts of the country to train engineers of all 50 states. This comprehensive
manual addresses all issues related to recycling such as performance of
recycled mixes; selection of appropriate type of recycling; economics of
recycling; and structural design of recycled pavements. Four types of
recycling have been described in detail: Hot mix recycling; Hot in-place
recycling; Cold asphalt recycling (both central plant and in-place); and Full
depth reclamation. Each recycling method has been described in terms of
construction methods & equipment; materials & mix design; and case
histories and QC/QA (quality control/quality assurance).

The reader can download any or all of the following chapters by clicking on
URL given under each chapter (or CTRL plus click or copy and paste in
URL). For example, if the reader is interested in cold in-place recycling only,
then Chapters 13, 14, and 15 would be appropriate. Use the main reference
above if any material is quoted from any chapter. The copyright of this
manual is held solely by the US Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
