DIRECT-MAT (Dismantling and Recycling Techniques for Road Materials - Sharing knowledge and practices) is a European project in the Seventh Framework Programme. The project consists of 20 partners in 15 countries. The purpose of this project is, in a European perspective, share knowledge and experiences about recycling of road materials into new roads. The results will be presented in a web-based database where manuals, guides, national documents, references and literature studies are easily accessible. Case studies that exemplify the practical use of methods from the participating countries will also be available. The project is divided into four groups that concentrate on recycling of different types of road materials. They are: - unbound road materials, - hydraulically-bound road materials, - asphalt-based materials, - other materials (e.g. ash, slag, rubber tires, contaminated sediment and vegetation from ditches). This VTI report summarizes the Swedish experience of demolition, and recycling of road materials for use in new roads.
