Transportation Research Record, 1978•trid.trb.orgEnergy requirements for typical pavement rehabilitation, maintenance, and construction
operations are defined. Detailed energy requirements associated with equipment,
production and manufacture of materials, hauling, laydown, and compaction are
summarized. Energy requirements to construct, rehabilitate, and maintain pavements over a
20-year period are of the order of magnitude of 378.6 MJ/sq m (300,000 Btu/sq yd) of
pavement. About 0.1 percent of total energy used in the United States is consumed in …
