Project Abstract

Abstract
The utilization of recycled materials in construction projects has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential to promote sustainability and reduce environmental impact. This research focuses on the analysis and design of sustainable road infrastructure using recycled materials. The main objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of incorporating recycled materials in road construction to enhance sustainability and reduce the reliance on virgin resources. The research methodology involves a comprehensive literature review to examine the current trends, challenges, and benefits associated with using recycled materials in road infrastructure projects. Various recycled materials such as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), recycled concrete aggregate (RCA), and recycled plastic are considered for their suitability and performance in road construction applications. The study also includes a detailed analysis of the mechanical properties, durability, and environmental impact of incorporating recycled materials in road infrastructure. Various testing methods such as laboratory experiments, field trials, and numerical simulations are employed to evaluate the performance and long-term sustainability of recycled materials in road construction. The findings of this research highlight the potential benefits of using recycled materials in road infrastructure, including reduced carbon footprint, cost savings, and conservation of natural resources. The study also identifies key challenges and limitations associated with the use of recycled materials, such as variability in material properties, quality control issues, and regulatory constraints. In conclusion, the analysis and design of sustainable road infrastructure using recycled materials offer a promising approach to enhance the sustainability of transportation infrastructure and contribute to the overall goal of achieving a more environmentally friendly and resource-efficient construction industry. The research provides valuable insights and recommendations for engineers, policymakers, and stakeholders to promote the adoption of recycled materials in road construction projects, ultimately leading to a more sustainable and resilient infrastructure system.
