The use of recycled concrete aggregates (RCAs) as an unbound pavement material is a perfect alternative to effectively manage the construction and demolition (C&D) wastes. However, the presence of constituents in RCA is led for inconsistent properties. The reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) material is one of the major constituents that can be mixed at the recycling process of demolished concrete. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of RAP as a constituent in RCA, on its characteristic properties as an unbound pavement material. To achieve the objectives of the study, five RCA samples were produced by mixing different percentages of RAP by weight. A series of standard laboratory tests were conducted on each sample. The results were then compared with the properties of standard granular pavement materials specified by Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (QDTMR), Australia. The analysis depicted that the presence of RAP as a constituent in RCA up to 15% was not significantly affected on the physical properties of RCA as an unbound pavement material.
