Recycled Plastic Fibers for Asphalt Mixtures

Résumé du livre

The use of recycled fibers in asphalt mixtures was found to be beneficial in some cases only such as when fishing nets were used. The final conclusion of the program was to pursue a systematic study primarily based on using the Superpave design schedule. The final approach was to use virgin fibers first to clearly understand how fibers affect the mechanical properties of the mixture, and then apply the results to the use of recycled fibers -- all the work was to follow the Superpave design approach. A comprehensive review of the results is included in this report.
