Join the Caltrans Division of Research, Innovation & System Information (DRISI) to discover how Rubberized Hot Mix Asphalt—Dense Graded (RHMA-D) is advancing pavement performance while supporting California’s sustainability and recycling goals.

This session introduces how recycled tire rubber is incorporated into RHMA-D through various technologies, compares its properties with other asphalt mixes, and highlights its economic and environmental benefits.

Presenters will also share insights from a recent pilot project. Attendees will gain practical guidance on when to use RHMA-D, how to approach pavement and mix design, and key considerations for successful construction.

Learning Objectives:

• How recycled tire rubber is incorporated into RHMA-D
• Key performance differences between RHMA-D and other asphalt mixes
• Environmental and economic advantages of RHMA-D
• Lessons learned from a recent pilot project
• Pavement design considerations and construction best practices

Presenters:

• John Harvey, Director, University of California Pavement Research Center
• Angel Mateos,Principal Investigator, University of California Pavement Research Center
• Jeff Buscheck, Research Engineer, University of California Pavement Research Center
