From page 62...
... 62 The use of RAM, including RAP and RAS, has increased in highway construction due to potential engineering, economic, and environmental benefits. Although the use of RAM in new asphalt mixtures can reduce the amount of virgin and nonrenewable materials required and increase the rutting resistance of pavements, it may also compromise cracking resistance.
From page 63...
... Summary of Major Findings 63   not extensively evaluated the long-term performance of asphalt mixtures with RAs. The literature review shows that a loss of RA effectiveness over time is a major concern for RA-treated binder blends and asphalt mixtures.
