Due to the fact that the overall performance of concrete pavement was typically equivalent during the full-service life, the use of the chosen addition made it possible to recycle a substantial proportion of reclaimed asphalt pavement at mid-service and high-service temperatures. One of the advances in building materials is RCC (Roller Compacted Concrete), which is a combination of cement, water, and coarse and fine particles that are compacted by rolling. This surplus is required for road paving construction, particularly on routes that will be quickly utilized or constructed during the rainy season. Recent paper focused on determining the ideal level of compaction for the RCC pavement model. The most important part of this paper is to do a compressive strength study under different levels of compaction for field application. The outcomes of experiment will be explored upon acquiring data on the RCC surface as a result of repeated load cycles. The form of study employed is actual experimental research on the RCC pavement model, which has a width of 70-cm, a length of 240 cm, and various thicknesses. The results indicated that the RCC thickness was compacted 12 times, 16 times, 20 times, 24 times, 32 times, and 40 times with varying compaction numbers as the level of compaction. The degree of compaction represented by compaction number, CN has a substantial influence on the roller compacted concrete performance especially affecting the compressive strength. The optimum compaction number, CN for the 5cm, 6cm and 7cm thickness were determined to be 43, 48, and 58 times respectively. © 2023, Horizon Research Publishing. All rights reserved.
