Abstract:
This report describes Connecticuts first experience with Portland Cement Concrete Recycling. The test location was on I-84 in Waterbury, Connecticut, a major expressway which required extensive realignment and widening. The primary concern was to obtain the technical expertise to design and place a recycled pavement. Secondary factors also investigated were the analysis of environmental, economic and energy factors relative to the option of recycling or new construction of a portland cement concrete pavement.
