About Vince Aurilio

Vince Aurilio, P.Eng. is currently the senior technical director of Sripath Technologies, providing technical support across the Sripath Group of Companies to customers and partners worldwide.

With over 40 years of experience as a licensed professional engineer and as an expert in pavement design and materials engineering, Vince Aurilio brings critical expertise and knowledge of industry best practices and trends to every client and project. This includes experience spanning paving solutions for roadways and airports for both private and public transportation.

Aurilio has extensive experience in materials spanning hot mix and warm mix asphalt design and testing, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) mix design, and stone matrix asphalt (SMA) mix design. He is an advocate of balanced mix design (BMD), which seeks to improve pavement performance through consideration of asphalt mix performance properties rather than relying solely on the characteristics of the binder to meet specifications.

Aurilio is also knowledgeable in geotechnical investigation, non-destructive deflection testing (FWD), in-place pavement recycling and full depth reclamation, asphalt performance testing, pavement evaluations, forensic studies, and life cycle cost analysis.

In addition to his work with Sripath, Aurilio is the owner and president of VA Asphalt Pavement Technologies, an independent engineering firm specializing in asphalt materials, pavement design, asphalt mix design, construction QC/QA, forensic evaluations, and training. Aurilio is consulted by global experts and has authored or coauthored over 30 peer-reviewed papers. He is also a sought-after presenter for keynotes focused on paving materials and design.

Aurilio holds a number of affiliations including with the Transportation Research Board, Transportation Association of Canada, and Canadian Asphalt Technical Association, among others. He also held the position of executive director for the Ontario Asphalt Pavement Council (a council of ORBA) from 2015-2019. Based in Ontario, Canada, he has been a licensed member of Professional Engineers Ontario since 1985.

All About Recycled Asphalt

Recycling asphalt is a cornerstone of sustainable road construction that offers economic, environmental, and performance benefits. Understanding recycled asphalt, its uses, performance considerations, and asphalt rejuvenation technologies is critical for contractors and mix designers looking to build durable, eco-friendly roadways. What is Recycled Asphalt? Recycled asphalt, often referred to as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), is asphalt material removed from old roadways and reused in new pavement mixtures. Rather than sending old [...]

High-RAP Roadways, Long-Term Aging Concerns, and Asphalt Rejuvenation

Using reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) has become a cornerstone of modern roadway mix designs as the asphalt paving industry continues pushing for sustainable practices. RAP offers environmental benefits including reduced reliance on virgin binder and aggregate and potential to lower greenhouse gas emissions. However, when proposed RAP levels rise above 25%, concerns about long-term pavement performance also [...]

Balancing Asphalt Performance and Sustainability with Warm Mix Additives

Paving industry professionals are increasingly struggling to address two critical priorities: enhancing roadway performance and meeting sustainability goals. With governments, contractors, and material producers under increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, technologies that support energy efficiency and a lower carbon footprint are increasingly in demand. Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) and warm mix additives have risen in [...]

Video: Balanced Mix Design Benchmarking Strategies

Balanced mix design, or BMD, focuses on engineering asphalt mixes that meet a variety of performance specifications. Going beyond traditional volumetric requirements, BMD requires thorough benchmarking strategies to produce satisfactory results. Benchmarking starts with clearly defined performance standards. These include setting guidelines for resistance to cracking, rutting, fatigue, and moisture damage. Standards should reflect local traffic demands, [...]
