Bukit Jimbaran - Faculty of Engineering Udayana University held a National Seminary on Re-coated Road Pavement  on Thursday (31/08/2017) in the framework of the Badan Kekeluargaan Fakultas Teknik (BKFT) 52nd at Wiswa Karma Hall, Faculty of Engineering Bukit Jimbaran Campus. This seminar was aimed at maintaining the harmony of environmental elevation along the road, so it is necessary to conduct recycling in the form of long road pavement rolling before coating / overlay of the road.

The seminar presented the speakers from the Provincial Public Works Office of Bali with the topic " Kebijakan Pemprov Bali Dalam Daur Ulang Perkerasan Jalan " and resource persons from Balai Besar Pelaksanaan Jalan Nasional VIII Jatim-Bali with the topic " Daur Ulang Jalan di Indonesia ".

Furthermore Prof. Ngakan Suardana conveyed to avoid that we can follow the developed countries that do Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement. One method that can be used is the recycling method that is an effort to optimize the reuse of old material into new pavement material is much stronger.
