Abstract
The asphalt waste dust as a sustainable material for stabilizing pavement recycling, which is cold in-place recycling (consists of reclaimed asphalt pavement, crushed rock aggregate base, and ordinary Portland cement), was presented in this study. To understand the effect of asphalt waste dust on stabilizing pavement recycling, 10–30 wt% asphalt waste dust was added and compared with the behavior of pure old-asphalt pavement material and old-asphalt pavement material mixed with 3.5 % OPC. The compaction test, unconfined compressive strength test (UCS), indirect tensile strength tests (IDT), and scanning electron microscope analysis were conducted under various mixing conditions. The addition of asphalt waste dust up to 20 wt% achieved desirable results of UCS and IDT involved with microstructural development, which were beyond the standard requirements of the base course from the Department of Rural Roads and the Department of Highway. A maximum of 20 wt% asphalt waste dust can be utilized for practical use with pavement recycling in the base course.
