  • Abstract:
    Since 1990, it has been the policy of the State of Arizona that the recycling and reuse of

    waste tires are the highest priority. The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT)

    has long supported the use of recycled waste tire rubber in asphalt rubber hot mix. AR

    mixtures have been shown to perform successfully and have several added benefits such

    as the reduction of highway noise, providing better surface drainage characteristics to

    enhance visibility and skid on wet pavement surfaces. Furthermore, some aspects of life

    cycle costs have also been conducted and demonstrated the potential impacts on

    maintenance and rehabilitation savings to ADOT. Joint ASU/ADOT research activities

    related to Asphalt Rubber (AR) mixtures started in July 2001 and are continuing. In this

    work we test the hypothesis that AR-ACFC road surface layer results in less tire wear

    than PCC road surface layer.
