RAP Incentive System, spearheaded by Robert C. Rea, P.E., promotes the use of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) in road construction by offering incentives to contractors. The system aims to address challenges like stockpile management, binder shortages, and escalating costs. Through a structured approach, it incentivizes the use of RAP, leading to cost savings, resource efficiency, and environmental benefits. The system involves reimbursement incentives, binder savings, and a focus on increasing RAP content in asphalt mixes.

  2. RAP Incentive System 1. History 2. How it works 3. Post Consumer Recycle Content Label

  3. RAP Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement Millings from the roadway 5 % Binder (Oil) 95 % Aggregate

  4. 1 Ton of RAP 5 % Binder (Oil) $35/ton 95 % Aggregate $14/ton ____________________ $49/ton material value

  5. Driving factors 1. Millings stockpiles scattered around the state as many as 75 large stockpiles and hundreds of sites some called mountians of millings 2. Couldn t store any more 3. 2008 Polymer and Binder shortage, binder cost doubled

  6. Average RAP Content 30 27.3% RAP 25 20 15 10 6.9% RAP 5 0 2007 2009

  7. How Does it Work ? Binder Savings Incentive RAP Source RAP coming from an ON-project source1 State supplied RAP coming from an OFF-project source2 Contractor supplied RAP3 % Reimbursement 15 35 50 % Incentive To Contractor To NDOT 15 % 35 % 50 % 85 % 65 % 50 % 1 - 2 - 3 -
