Abstract
The aim of the research project is to investigate the influence of rubber modification on the aging behavior and the reuse potential of reclaimed asphalt. In addition to extensive optimization processes, the investigations include numerous behavior-oriented laboratory tests to characterize and describe the mechanical behavior of rubber-modified bitumen and asphalt. Based on the results, forecast calculations are made in order to estimate the expected useful life of selected pavements, taking into account rubber-modified asphalt.
