- ItemEnergy consumption comparison for different asphalt pavements rehabilitation techniques used in Chile(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2007) Thenoux, Guillermo; Gonzalez, Alvaro; Dowling, RafaelIn developing countries without the availability of reliable pavement management systems, recycling techniques may offer the best alternative for pavement structural rehabilitation. However, for many government officials and contractors there is a clear understanding of the technical advantages of recycling but not a clear perspective of cost saving. Since cost is a relative value among different regions of any country the following work makes an energy analysis of the construction process of the three different rehabilitation techniques available in Chile. Three different structural pavement rehabilitation alternatives were studied and compared using an energy consumption methodology:
