California Rubberized Asphalt 101 from Doug Carlson on Vimeo.

Overview of the history, production and placement of asphalt modified by scrap tire rubber in California. Rubberized Asphalt Concrete beneficially reuses 2000 tires per lane mile to help prevent cracking in roads and can be used in thinner layers, 2:1 reduction compared to regular asphalt.
The video was produced by the California Scrap Tire program to help educate public works engineers that are interested in trying the material.
