The project aimed to assess and demonstrate the viability of incorporating other-than-truck tyres crumb rubber into asphalt applications from an operational and constructability standpoint. Following the initial part of the project that assessed the readiness of the tyre recycling and asphalt industries to handle crumb rubber from any sources of end-of-life tyres, the demonstration project in Tasmania showed no significant differences among the three asphalt mixes, suggesting that more attention should be directed towards crumb rubber produced from tyres other than trucks – some of which are only minimally recycled despite their significant volume.

This webinar, presented by Robert Nucifora from Fulton Hogan and Tony Aloisio from the Australian Flexible Pavement Association, will provide a detailed overview of the demonstration project in Tasmania and its findings.

There will be question and answer opportunities during the session.
