Material Costs. A major part of the installation is the cost of the paving material itself. Some rough estimates per square foot of paved area are as follows [ 7 ]: Gravel and other natural aggregates: $0.50 – $2.00. Asphalt and Permeable Asphalt: $1- $5. Concrete and Permeable Concrete: $3 – $10. Concrete Interlocking Pavers: $10 – $50.

In the construction and maintenance of asphalt pavement, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) is being widely used as a cheaper alternative to the conventional hot mix asphalt (HMA). HMA incorporated with a high RAP content (e.g., 40%), which is the most commonly used, may have prominent adverse effects on life cycle, performance properties, and related costs.
