Improving Quality in Recycled Pavement

Posted: 2/16/2026

WEBINAR: February 17, 2026, 2:00PM - 3:00PM PT [CLOSED]

Join the UC Pavement Research Center's David Jones and Stephanus Louw for an informative, research-focused webinar Improving Quality in Recycled Pavement to explore how construction timing affects the quality and lifespan of recycled pavement.

Delays during construction can significantly compromise pavement performance, making timing a critical factor in achieving durable, cost-effective roadways. This informative session shares findings from a comprehensive research study on cold recycling practices, revealing how delayed compaction and stockpiling directly impact pavement strength and stiffness. Understanding these relationships is essential for agencies working to maximize the performance of recycled pavement while minimizing long-term maintenance costs.

The webinar covers why enforcing the two-hour compaction window is critical for quality outcomes and how construction variability from delays impacts pavement design. Attendees will gain recommendations to improve quality control procedures and reduce variability that can undermine pavement performance.

For transportation professionals, contractors, and quality control specialists working with recycled pavement, this session demonstrates how proper timing during construction makes the difference between a strong, long-lasting road and costly repairs down the line.
