    The incorporation of waste materials into road materials provides an excellent opportunity for partial reductions in virgin material consumption while providing a valuable alternative destination for the would-be waste. However, the incorporation of these materials and the performance limitations of the resulting asphalt need to be carefully examined, especially with regards to the asphalt cracking susceptibility. The current study focuses on the use of construction waste fillers as partial aggregate replacement in semidense asphalt (SDA) mixtures. Both concrete waste in the form of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and mixed construction and demolition (C&D) waste are examined. The indirect tensile (IT) stiffness modulus was found to not be affected significantly by the filler replacement. The IT fatigue resistance was found to be somewhat lower with the waste material using the classical approach, but similar when looking at the damage rate. In addition to the smaller-scale testing, larger-scale testing was conducted on the control and RCA filler mixtures using the Mobile Model Load Simulator (MMLS3), and similar cracking resistance was found for both mixtures while advancing a novel crack length measurement method using digital image correlation. The results showed that the incorporation of RCA filler into semidense asphalt mixtures is a viable solution reducing the need for virgin filler.

    Cement-stabilized rammed earth (CSRE) finds applications in structural walls. The CSRE walls subjected to compression and flexure show brittle failures. The inclusion of short fibers into the CSRE matrix enhances the straining capacity and postcrack response, promoting ductile failures. Although the effect of fiber reinforcement on the mechanical behavior of the fiber-reinforced CSRE composites has been well explored, there are limited focused studies on the durability of natural fiber–reinforced CSRE composites. Establishing the durability of such composites is essential for promoting the use of natural fibers in CSRE construction. The present study focuses on the durability of coir fiber–reinforced CSRE elements. The investigations examined (1) the durability of coir fibers in the highly alkaline environment, (2) the interfacial bond strength of coir fibers in the CSRE matrix subjected to accelerated weathering tests, and (3) strength, stiffness, straining capacity, and postpeak response after subjecting the composite to accelerated durability tests. The investigations revealed that after exposure to accelerated cyclic weathering tests (1) the fiber–matrix bond strength in the CSRE composite is partially reduced, (2) there is a marginal variation in compressive strength and increased stiffness, (3) the composite retains a considerable amount of straining and energy absorption capacity, and (4) it shows satisfactory durable characteristics. Investigations revealed that the coir fiber–reinforced CSRE composite is a durable material.
