The purpose of this report is to identify factors to consider in selecting a hot in-place recycling project for asphalt pavements. This report discusses the different types of recycling processes and several selected hot in-place recycling processes that are becoming so popular today. The types of asphalt pavement distress and their causes are discussed to provide a working knowledge of possible applications for this process. Discussions on project selection, design, and construction considerations will also provide an awareness of considerations relative to this type of asphalt-pavement rehabilitation. An understanding of these topics will be helpful when selecting hot in-place recycling. The information that this report is based upon was obtained from various sources. A literature search included technical reports, periodicals, and advertisements. Personal contact was made in the form of interviews with a number of representatives in the industry and on site inspection of Cutler Repaving, Inc. and Remixer Contracting Co., Inc. operations.
