        abstract = {The construction industry generates a substantial amount of demolition waste every year, leading to environmental concerns and depletion of natural resources. Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA), obtained from crushed waste concrete, has emerged as a sustainable alternative to natural aggregates in pavement construction. This study investigates the performance of bituminous mixtures incorporating recycled concrete aggregate. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the physical and mechanical properties of natural aggregates, recycled concrete aggregates, and VG-30 bitumen. Marshall Mix Design was employed to evaluate stability and flow characteristics of bituminous mixes containing varying percentages of RCA. Experimental results revealed that RCA satisfies the required standards for pavement construction and can effectively replace natural aggregates up to an optimum replacement level of 30%. The study concludes that RCA-based bituminous mixtures offer an environmentally friendly and economically viable solution for sustainable road construction.},
