Cold Central Plant Recycling (CCPR)
Equipping you to apply soil stabilization and modification treatments with confidence & success.
Pre-Construction Testing
| Evaluation of Existing Pavement Structure | If pavement distreses suggest weak subgrade, or if traffic levels are forcast to increase, check the strength of pavement and subgrade layers with Falling Weight Deflectomer (FWD) or Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) | Recommended |
| Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) | Verify thickness and consistency of existing asphalt and granular layers | Optional |
| Pavement Sampling | Obtain material for mix design and verify thickness of asphalt layers | Required if RAP coming from existing pavement |
| Stockpile Sampling | Obtain material for mix design | Required if RAP coming from existing stockpile |
| Mix Design | Conduct mix design for emulsified asphalt in accordance with ARRA CR201 or AASHTO PP 86-17 and MP 31-17. Conduct mix dsign for foamed asphalt in accordance with ARRA CR202. | Required |
