Abstract:

The most sweeping changes and innovations in asphalt pavement recycling in North America in the past 10 years have occurred in hot in-place recycling (HIPR). Improvements in equipment and techniques since the first asphalt pavement was placed in the United States in 1870 have enabled asphalt pavement recycling to become a common procedure in the transportation industry. This article describes the three basic HIPR processes, which are heater scarification, repaving, and remixing, gives examples of HIPR use, discusses why HIPR is not always the best resurfacing alternative, and reports the results of a survey that examined the extent of HIPR use in the United States. Concluding remarks on the HIPR process outline the areas where further investigation is needed.
