Abstract
This report covers the design and testing of a hot mix recycling process. The process involved the crushing and sizing of old pavement removed from an airport runway and the inclusion of this salvaged material in the production of a hot mixed asphalt concrete base course mixture. The mix was produced by a heat transfer method through a modified bath plant. The field testing includes condition surveys and post construction analyses of the paving mixture and pavement structure. The initial results indicate an acceptable asphalt concrete mixture can be produced utilizing the heat transfer method of production. Further field evaluations will be necessary in order to draw definite conclusions with regard to long-term pavement performance.
