Summary of literature on current trends in FBS of recycled materials on pavements

AuthorResearch objectivesRecycled materials utilisedKey findings and associated advantagesKey findings and associated challenges
Maghool et al., 2022 Evaluate strength and deformation of FB-stabilised waste materialsRCA, RAP, RG, and recycled plasticFB and hydrated lime mixtures showed improved deformation resistance due to synergistic effectsHigher RAP, RG, and recycled plastic contents reduced strength
Bodin et al., 2020 Study deformation of FBS materials and effects of RAP increase50% RAP with crushed rockMinimal pavement surface deformation and low rates of deformation under accelerated loading in both early-life and cured statesAdding 50% RAP raised deformation rate but stayed below the control asphalt at similar temperatures
Doan et al., 2024 Evaluate one-part FA and S geopolymers for stabilising C&D aggregatesRCA, crushed brick and RAPStrength gains occurred at 0.1 activator ratio for CB and RCA, and 0.05 for RAP, exceeding traditional geopolymersLonger curing improved one-part geopolymer strength more than higher temperaturesLow fine contents notably reduced strength, especially at 10% precursor dosage
Mohammadinia et al., 2016 Investigate geopolymer-stabilised C&D materials using FA and S with varied activator-to-binder ratiosRCA, crushed brick and RAPGeopolymer stabilisation was most effective for RCA, with S binders giving higher strength than FA bindersCrushed brick had low strength, with 7-day curing and additives showing little improvement
Barisoglu et al., 2023 Evaluate cold-recycled FB mixes with 100% RAP for base layers100% RAPS-based geopolymer boosted tensile strength, and all active fillers improved moisture resistance by 30%–35%Adding S-based geopolymers with FB didn’t raise wet indirect tensile strength but reduced moisture sensitivity
