Abstract:
History will view the first three quarters of the twentieth century in the United States as a period of growth and technical advancement unparalleled in the world. Much of this progress has been attributable to plentiful, inexpensive, petroleum products. Recently the plentiful, inexpensive petroleum products have become scarce and expensive as sources of this nonrenewable resource become limited. Out of necessity therefore, conservation has become mandatory. One method of conservation that is being pursued by the highway industry is the reuse, or recycling, of pavement materials. This new idea comes at a time when increased emphasis on protecting the environment restricts methodology accordingly. This project was developed within the framework of accomplishing its purpose by using a fresh technique which conserves energy and natural resources, and meets environmental safeguards.
