The concept of sustainability is considered essential in the development of the asphalt mixtures industry, due to its economic and environmental benefits. This study attempts to highlight the potential benefits of sustainability using Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP). It reviews previous studies conducted on RAP to obtain the most important characteristics in how to use the optimal content of RAP and its effect on some basic properties such as resilient modulus, susceptibility to moisture, permanent deformation, and fatigue. This study mainly focuses on the advantages of using RAP materials in hot mix asphalt (HMA). The results indicated that adding 30% of RAP to virgin asphalt mixtures gives the best performance in terms of the most studied characteristics.
