Abstract

The LIFE NEREiDE project wants to demonstrate the use of new porous asphalt pavements and low noise surfaces composed by recycled asphalt pavements and crumb rubber from scrap tires. These materials will be mixed with binders at warm temperatures to produce warm mixture asphalt
pavements with specific benefits:
1) to reduce the disposal of waste materials, that by this way will be recycled, and to reduce the use of virgin materials (promote resource efficiency and waste management);
2) to achieve acoustical performance better than those currently available, allowing a significant reduction of noise in urban areas and health improvement;
3) to improve safetyin urban areas by obtaining draining and good textured surfaces;
4) to improve air pollution due to asphalt laying.
The new pavements will be laid in 2 selected urban areas in Tuscany, and will be tested with innovative instrumentation, based on methods currently available in literature. It will be placed in a mobile laboratory and used for measuring absorption.
Specific guidelines, used by Road Administrations, will be developed for the construction of new porous asphalt, low-noise and low carbon footprint road surface.
