Cradle-to-Site Life Cycle Assessment of Road Pavement Structures: Effects of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement, Functional Road Category, and Structural Alternatives
Road pavement construction generates a significant initial carbon footprint, mainly related to material production, transport and construction processes. This study comparatively assesses the “cradle-to-site” carbon footprint of selected road pavement structures, with the aim of supporting low-carbon pavement design ch...
