The reinforcing fabric includes at least one glass fiber, wherein the at least one glass fiber includes a binder, the binder including a polymer resin and a filler, the filler including a recycled asphalt shingle. Further included is a method of reinforcing pavement with the aforementioned reinforcing fabric. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A reinforcing fabric comprising at least one glass fiber, wherein the at least one glass fiber comprises a binder comprising a polymer resin and a filler, the filler comprising a recycled asphalt shingle. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the polymer resin comprises a styrene-based polymer, poly vinyl chloride (PVC), poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC), an acrylic polymer, a polyvinyl alcohol, a polyvinyl acetate, an olefinic polymer, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), a polyamide, an acrylamide, a vinyl ester, or combination thereof. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The reinforcing fabric of claim 2, wherein the styrene-based polymer comprises a styrene butadiene resin, a styrene acrylic resin, or combination thereof. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the filler is present in a range of about 1% by weight to about 99% by weight, such as about 1% by weight to about 80% by weight, or even about 5% by weight to about 50% by weight of a dry coating based on total binder formulation. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the filler has a particle size wherein 90% of the particles are less than about 1,300 microns, less than about 1,000 microns, less than about 500 microns, less than about 100 microns, less than about 50 microns, or even less than 34 microns. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the binder further comprises a crosslinker. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the at least one glass fiber comprises a first set of strands and a second set of strands, wherein the first and second set of strands are oriented at an angle. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The reinforcing fabric of claim 7, wherein the first and second set of strands have an opening between adjacent strands. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the strands comprise E-glass filaments, C-glass, or combination thereof. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the binder provides a substantially uniform coating on the at least one glass fiber. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the binder is present on the reinforcing fabric in an amount of about 1% by weight to about 50% by weight, such as about 1% by weight to about 30% by weight, or even about 5% by weight to about 15% by weight based on the total weight of the reinforcing fabric. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the binder is substantially free of an asphalt resin. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, further comprising a tack film, a release liner, a release coating, or combination thereof on a major surface of the reinforcing grid. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, having an adhesive bond to asphaltic paving. ### Claim 15 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein a surface of the reinforcing fabric has an increased surface roughness compared to a binder without the recycled asphalt shingle filler. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The reinforcing fabric of claim 1, wherein the reinforcing fabric has an increased tensile strength compared to a binder without the recycled asphalt shingle filler. ### Claim 17 A method of reinforcing paving comprising: providing a reinforcing fabric over a lower layer of paving, wherein the reinforcing fabric comprises at least one glass fiber, wherein the at least one glass fiber comprises a binder, wherein the binder comprises a polymer resin and a filler, the filler comprising a recycled asphalt shingle; and applying an upper layer of paving on the reinforcing fabric. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The method of claim 17, wherein reinforcing fabric forms an adhesive bond to the lower layer of paving and the upper layer of paving. ### Claim 19 (depends on 17) The method of claim 17, wherein the polymer resin comprises a styrene-based polymer, poly vinyl chloride (PVC), poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC), an acrylic polymer, a polyvinyl alcohol, a polyvinyl acetate, an olefinic polymer, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), a polyamide, an acrylamide, a vinyl ester, or combination thereof. ### Claim 20 (depends on 17) The method of claim 17, wherein the filler is present in a range of about 1% by weight to about 99% by weight, such as about 1% by weight to about 80% by weight, or even about 5% by weight to about 50% by weight of a dry coating based on total binder formulation.
