Environmental concerns and the State's commitment to recycle as much roadway material as economics permit have influenced rehabilitation methods. Consequently, over the past 21 years, Caltrans rehabilitation strategies have increased in number with new materials, interlayers, recycling of existing pavements, and the addition of waste products (such as rubber) in asphalt concrete. The manual is intended as a tool to provide guidance to those who are recommending asphalt concrete pavement rehabilitation for planning, design and maintenance of the state's highways.
