This article studies the practical road performance of recycled materials from construction waste, relying on the paving test section of the supporting project for the Qingdao Cross-Sea Bridge. The research focuses on the construction technology and road performance of using recycled construction waste materials in urban road sub-base construction. Through indoor tests such as sieving and unconfined compressive strength tests, relevant technical indicators were obtained and analyzed. Additionally, periodic core sampling, compaction tests, and rebound deflection tests were conducted on-site according to relevant standards to thoroughly investigate the specific effects of using construction waste in practice and to analyze and evaluate the actual feasibility of the materials for road use. The results indicate that the particle gradation of the construction mix in the test section aligns well with the target gradation, and the dosage of the mixing agent meets the design requirements. The 7-day unconfined compressive strength already satisfied the technical requirements for heavy and extremely heavy traffic on highways as specified in the "Technical Specifications for Construction of Highway Pavement Subbase" (JTG/T F20-2015), with the 14-day strength generally reaching 7 MPa. Core sampling revealed good aggregate gradation, smooth and straight profiles, and the thickness and strength of all parts meet the specifications. The compaction levels met the testing requirements, the surface deflection values showed a decreasing trend, and the deformation resistance was good, consistent with the general development patterns of semi-rigid sub-bases.
