ABSTRACT
A new approach in terms of common procedures (used not only in Slovakia) was implemented in the reconstruction of a deteriorated cement concrete pavement. The hydraulically bound layer with the robust final thickness of 40 cm was made by technology of cold recycling in situ from the concrete slab, base, and subbase layers. This layer formed the basis for new asphalt layers. Testing and comprehensive evaluation of bearing capacity of reconstructed pavement by FWD proved significantly increase in bearing capacity of pavement. The analysis also confirmed the used technology of recycling is suitable to achieve high stiffness of homogenized recycled layer and ensure acceptable homogeneity.
