Recycled asphalt as a suitable alternative to quarry aggregates for compacting unbound construction layers of cycling and hiking paths

Original language description

The idea of access to land for the purpose of recreational use should not only entertain socio-economic aspects but also the technical solution. One suitable environmental-friendly alternative is the use of recycled materials in the actual implementation of the project. The presented technical arrangement deals with the possible use of recycled asphalt for reinforcing cycling and hiking paths instead of natural quarry aggregates. For this purpose three test sections were constructed using differing technological reinforcement variants on the existing forest road near the popular tourist location of Brno city. The first section was created by mechanical chip seal technology (MCS), the second section was constructed by vibrated gravel technology (VG) and the third section was created by removing the original upper structural layer and replacing this with recycled asphalt according to operational reinforcement technology (OR). For each section of technological reinforcement deformation the characteristics of the pavement layer construction were monitored by using the static load test. This demonstrated whether recycled asphalt can be a suitable alternative for the reinforcement of recreational trails. This solution is technically simple, efficient, ecological and realisable for small owners.
