Abstract
This systematic literature review evaluates reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in concrete con-struction, targeting reduced natural aggregate use and lower construction carbon footprint. It comprehensively covers RAP in concrete, including mechanical properties, durability, test methods, mix design, performance, influencing factors, RAP content, processing, admixtures, curing, and environmental aspects. RAP concrete matches traditional concrete mechanically while increasing sustainability through waste reduction. Durability parameters, like permea-bility, freeze-thaw resistance, and chloride penetration, suggest long-term structural enhance-ment. Reliable testing methods and standards are vital for RAP in concrete assessment. The review explores RAP in mix design, considering content, gradation, and processing. Admix-tures and additives optimize RAP concrete. Curing and environmental conditions influence RAP concrete performance. Gaps indicate a need for long-term studies, understanding mech-anisms, specific environmental exploration, standardized testing, and economic assessment. The study recommends future research directions to guide sustainable construction practices.
