Based on an analysis of the cold regeneration mechanism of emulsified asphalt, the emulsified asphalt binders and cement were applied to prepare the cold recycled mixtures, and the main technical performances of the designed mixtures were evaluated, including high-temperature stability, water stability, and fatigue characteristics. A high content of 65% recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) material was used with some new aggregates and mineral powders, and the optimal emulsified asphalt binder and cement dosages were determined as 2.9% and 1.5% respectively. The technical performance test results show that: (1) The well-designed emulsified asphalt cold recycled mixtures have good high-temperature stability and water stability, and can meet the requirements of the road base layer and the lower layer. (2) When the stress level is lower, the fatigue performance of mixtures with lower emulsified asphalt binder dosage and lower cement content is better, but when the stress level is higher, the high dosage of emulsified asphalt binder is more favorable, while the cement content has little effect on the fatigue property. (3) The emulsified asphalt cold recycled mixtures have relatively poor fatigue resistance, and their fatigue life is significantly lower than that of the hot mixed asphalt mixtures.
