This course contains guidance for preparing plans and specifications and for ensuring the quality of recycled bituminous concrete. In addition, the course provides useful information to design engineers, laboratory personnel, and inspectors concerning the mix design, plant production, and laydown of recycled pavement mixtures.

Recycling pavement materials has proved to be a feasible process to rehabilitate worn-out pavements. Since recycled pavements will not always be cost-effective, recycling should be carefully considered as an option when repairing or rehabilitating existing pavements.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

• Describe the technology and equipment used in pavement recycling.
• Explain surface recycling.
• Describe cold-mix recycling.
• Explain hot-mix recycling.
• Compare the advantages and disadvantages of asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete pavement recycling.
• Describe the application of rejuvenators.
• Explain the heater-planing and scarifying processes.

Certificate of Completion

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 15 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
