The Benefits of RAP and Milling In any paving project, improving efficiency and cutting costs is key. Utilizing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) can help you complete your project on time and under budget. The Value of RAP RAP can be processed and used to replace virgin aggregate and liquid asphalt. Recycled aggregate and liquid AC will have the same value as the virgin material they replace if the RAP is processed into the same size and shape as the original. Additionally, the rock in recycle is the same age as rock coming from a quarry, and liquid asphalt in recycle is the same age as that fresh from an oil well. Because RAP can function identically to virgin materials if processed correctly, it provides considerable cost savings, especially as the cost of virgin materials rises.
