In light of requirements that rubber be mixed with any asphalt used in projects receiving federal aid beginning in 1994, and the general increase in the problem of what to do with waste material, 17 papers from a December 1992 symposium in Miami discuss some of the technical and economic considerati

Use of Recycled Plastics in Eco-efficient Concrete looks at the processing of plastic waste, including techniques for separation, the production of plastic aggregates, the production of concrete with recycled plastic as an aggregate or binder, the fresh properties of concrete with plastic aggregates, the shrinkage of concrete with plastic aggregates, the mechanical properties of concrete with plastic aggregates, toughness of concrete with plastic aggregates, modulus of elasticity of concrete with plastic aggregates, durability of concrete with plastic aggregates, concrete plastic waste powder with enhanced neutron radiation shielding, and more, thus making it a valuable reference for academics and industrial researchers. - Describes the main types of recycled plastics that can be applied in concrete manufacturing - Presents, for the first time, state-of-the art knowledge on the properties of conventional concrete with recycled plastics - Discusses the technological challenges for concrete manufactures for mass production of recycled concrete from plastic waste

This is the first report of 6 tasks to be performed in an effort to establish locally-based quality and performance criteria for asphalts, and ultimately to develop performance-related specifications based on simple physicochemical methods. Three of the most promising chemical methods (high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), thermal analysis, and X-ray diffraction were selected to analyze 4 different types of samples. The results will indicate the fundamental asphalt property variables that directly affect the field performance in Iowa. The details of the materials and procedures employed are described, and the results of the tests are presented.
