Cold recycling techniques emerged in road construction to recycle deteriorated pavements as bases and surfaces. A detailed review is carried out in the current study on the design, evaluation, performance, and advances in the emulsified asphalt-treated bases (EATB). The mix-design of EATB is a complex procedure in which the performance is based on optimizing water, additives, and emulsified asphalt contents. This paper covers the design methods, compaction characteristics, curing periods, additive contents, strength development, strength parameters, determination of the optimum emulsified asphalt content, and finally, the performance evaluation of EATB. From the detailed review, indirect tensile strength (ITS) is the most influencing parameter considered in the mix design of the EATB. Maximum dry density, Marshall Stability, and ITS are considered as primary performance indicators of the EATB. Modulus, rutting, and fatigue being consider secondary performance indicators. Overall, the recycled bases using emulsified asphalt proved sustainable and economical compared with the natural aggregates (NA).
