How might we fix these roads?
Why Pavement Recycling?
- Additional tools in the road construction toolbox
- FDR: Full Depth Reclamation
- CIR: Cold In-Place Recycling
- CCPR: Cold Central Plant Recycling
- Using less resources, proven construction methods
- Engineered process, engineered technology
Learning Objectives
- Construction Technique Overview
- Project Selection Guidance
- Project Case Studies

Pavement Recycling Processes
Full Depth Reclamation (FDR)
Typical Depth: 5 - 12 inches Stabilizer: Emulsified/ Foamed Asphalt or Portland Cement
Cold In-place Recycle (CIR)
Typical Depth: 3 – 5 inches Stabilizer: Emulsified/ Foamed Asphalt
Cold Central Plant Recycle (CCPR)
Typical Depth: 3 - 6 inches Stabilizer: Emulsified/ Foamed Asphalt Agency Usage:
- Alternate to Reconstruction
Agency Usage:
- Alternate to Deeper Mill and
Fill Agency Usage:
- Structural Base Layer
Distress Categories
- Surface Defects CIR, CCPR
– Raveling, Potholing, Bleeding
- Non- Load Associated Cracking
– Block, Longitudinal, Transverse, Reflective
- Load Associated Cracking
– Fatigue, Edge
- Deformation
– Rutting, Shoving

What Is FDR?
- Deepest Recycle Treatment
(5 - 12 in.)
- Uniformly crushed,
pulverized and blended with stabilizer
- Results in stabilized base
course
- Requires Wearing Course
2/8/2019 5
Full Depth Reclamation
- Three Types of FDR
– Mechanical Stabilization
- Pulverization
- Compaction
– Bituminous Stabilization
- Emulsified Asphalt
- Foamed Asphalt
– Chemical Stabilization
- Cement

Samaria Road
- Original Construction in 1964
– Length of roadway 10.3 miles – Non Reinforced 8” concrete pavement – 18” dowel bars on center joint at 24” spacing – Designed as “floating” concrete pavement
- MDOT turned roadway over to the County
– With no funding to maintain
- Severe deterioration for last 20 Years
- Fall 2013 Michigan Legislature sets aside $5
million for reconstruction
How to reconstruct for $5 Million?
- “Normal” construction techniques would exceed
budget
- Project needed to be completed in phases
- Access to residents and businesses to be
maintained
- Profile could not be raised
- Project Completion date set for November
2/8/2019 7
How to reconstruct for $5 Million?
- Contractors had excess amounts of RAP stockpiled
- County to use removed concrete as aggregate for
- ther road projects
- Buy-in from the County Road Commission to use
recycled materials for the new construction
- Contractors bids ranged from $5.8 million to $4.5
million

CIR Operation
IL SR 130: Philo Rd
- Composite Pavement
- 8 in JRCP
- ~4” HMA
- 6k – 7k ADT
- Less than 3% Trucks
- Solution:
- 4.0 inch CIR
- Multiple Lift HMA Overlay
- 1.25” Leveling
- 1.5” Surface
CIR cost equivalent to 1.25 inches of leveling binder
2/8/2019 12
IDOT SR 130 IDOT SR 130 IDOT SR 130
Construction Issues
- CIR Processing Occurred Late May
– early June
- Then it started to rain
- CIR Material Set Up
- Moisture remained in the CIR
- Bath tub Effect with Shoulders
– High moisture made paving HMA Difficult to Compact
- Drains Installed September
- CIR Carried Traffic for 3 Months
- CIR Surfaced with 2 Lifts of HMA
