State four advantages of recycling asphalt pavement materials. Why can we not mix the RAP materials with aggregates in a conventional hot-mix asphalt concrete plant? Show the proper ways of recycling the RAP materials in the two types of hot-mix asphalt plants.
Q2: A: Name three methods of asphalt pavement recycling. Which one of them is the predominant method? Briefly summarize this method.
B: What is the fiber saturation point? What is the effect of the fiber saturation point on the shrinkage of wood in the different directions? How does this phenomenon affect the properties of lumber?
Define what is meant by temperature susceptibility of asphalt. Discuss the effect on the
performance of asphalt concrete pavements. Are soft asphalts used in hot or cold climates?
