Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA)
Technology that allows the reduction of mixing
and compaction temperatures by 20 to 100 F
50 F typical
Acts as a lubricator
Reduces surface tension of asphalt binder
Allows binder to flow and coat aggregates
![Page 27: Sustainable Transportation Initiatives...2012/01/17 · shingles and tear-off (TO) shingles Up to 5% shingles No more than 30% of total binder from RAS/RAP Iowa requires mix fracture](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050120/5f50a448d0b07765ae1c2c5a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Benefits of WMA
Environmental
Lower greenhouse gas emissions
Lower fuel consumption
Operational
Better compaction
More comfortable working conditions
More uniformity
Performance
Can use RAP and/or shingles with WMA
Eliminates bumps in overlays
Reduced binder aging – reduced cracking

Crush and/or screen to
size
Best practices for
material handling
0-50% RAP used
throughout country
15% national average
![Page 31: Sustainable Transportation Initiatives...2012/01/17 · shingles and tear-off (TO) shingles Up to 5% shingles No more than 30% of total binder from RAS/RAP Iowa requires mix fracture](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050120/5f50a448d0b07765ae1c2c5a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
RAP Benefits
Reduce carbon footprint of product
Conservation of natural resources
Conservation of landfill space
Stabilize material costs, i.e. raw material costs
continually fluctuate
Mixture durability (cracking potential, moisture
damage) can be a concern
![Page 32: Sustainable Transportation Initiatives...2012/01/17 · shingles and tear-off (TO) shingles Up to 5% shingles No more than 30% of total binder from RAS/RAP Iowa requires mix fracture](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022050120/5f50a448d0b07765ae1c2c5a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS)
Contain sand, (very stiff) asphalt, fiber
MnDOT allows both manufactured waste (MW)
shingles and tear-off (TO) shingles
Up to 5% shingles
No more than 30% of total binder from RAS/RAP
Iowa requires mix fracture test if above 30%
Mixture durability is again a concern
