NAPA Updates Asphalt Recycling Guide

The National Asphalt Pavement Association announces the publication of a new update to the popular technical document Recycling Hot-Mix Asphalt Pavements. The text of this guide to the processing of reclaimed asphalt pavement at the hot-mix asphalt plant has been significantly expanded. The publication has also been enhanced with new photographs and illustrations.

The revised 27-page publication explains the how-to of RAP: how to reclaim, size, store, and process the material. The various types of HMA plants are covered. Calculations for determining the value of using RAP are also provided.
