• Abstract:
  The recycling of old bituminous bound pavements in central plant operation has gained popularity since 1976. Procedures for the design of these mixtures have not been standardized; however, several producers and user-producer groups have published guides for design purposes (1-6). A mixture design method is outlined below based on these references together with information collected by the authors on studies sponsored by the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation, the National Cooperative Highway Research Program and the Federal Highway Administration. The method outlined should be considered as the existing state-of-the-art as of July 1980. Improvements in this design methodology are expected over the next several years.
