Book Investigation of Roller Compacted Concrete for Use in Pavements in Virginia

Download or read book Investigation of Roller Compacted Concrete for Use in Pavements in Virginia written by M. Shabbir Hossain and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is a stiff mixture of aggregate, cementitious materials, and water with zero slump. RCC is consolidated or compacted in the fresh state by use of a roller with or without vibration. RCC typically is placed with asphalt paving equipment in thicknesses of 4 to 8 in for pavement application. RCC has gained the attention of the paving industry in recent years because of its history of low cost, rapid construction, and durable performance. The Virginia Transportation Research Council conducted this laboratory study to gain familiarity with RCC technology and to develop guidelines for its use in the field. RCC mixtures were successfully produced in the laboratory using locally available materials, and their properties were measured. These mixtures achieved compressive strengths around 5,000 psi in 28 days and had properties similar to those of conventional concrete in terms of compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, and splitting tensile strength. A special provision was developed and used in the two field projects. The special provision was subsequently modified based on the field experience and is provided in the Appendix. VDOT should implement the RCC specification developed in this study for regular VDOT use of RCC. Use of RCC should be considered in future field applications, particularly where fast construction of rigid (concrete) pavement is needed; an example of such an area would carry heavily loaded, slow-moving vehicles such as at intersections and access roads to truck or bus parking areas. VDOT should annually monitor the long-term performance of the two constructed RCC projects reviewed in this study over a period of at least 10 years. Evaluations should document joint efficiencies for load transfer (through testing with the falling weight deflectometer), any visual evidence of deterioration of asphalt at joints, and any other general signs of pavement distress that may occur.

Book Application of Roller Compacted Concrete  RCC  Technology to Roadway Paving  Construction Productivity Advancement Research  CPAR  Program

Download or read book Application of Roller Compacted Concrete RCC Technology to Roadway Paving Construction Productivity Advancement Research CPAR Program written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project was to investigate the performance of a roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavement for use as a high-speed surface. A test section consisting of a small parking lot and a two-lane roadway was constructed. During construction, three major parameters were varied: paver speed, rolling amount, and joint spacing. The paver speed was varied to determine what effect, if any, this has on average lay-down density, average final density, rideability, skid resistance, load transfer, and density profiles. The average lay-down and final densities of the RCC pavement were determined using a nuclear density device, which determined the density of various depths throughout the pavement. The load transfer was determined at transverse joints and transverse cracks by using falling weight deflectometer data. The rolling amount was varied to determine its effect on all of the same properties as paver speed except lay-down density. The joint spacing was varied to examine an optimum spacing that would not develop intermediate cracking and would provide the desired rideability and load transfer. From this project, it was determined that no adjustments in paver speed, rolling (types of patterns), or joint spacing will significantly enhance RCC pavement properties so that it may be used for high-speed applications.

Book Guide for Roller compacted Concrete Pavements

Download or read book Guide for Roller compacted Concrete Pavements written by Dale S. Harrington and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is an economical, fast-construction candidate for many pavement applications. It has traditionally been used for pavements carrying heavy loads in low-speed areas because of its relatively coarse surface. However, in recent years its use has expanded into commercial areas and local streets and highways. This guide provides owner-agencies, contractors, material suppliers, and others with a thorough introduction to RCC and its many applications. Based on current research and best practices, the guide provides detailed overviews of RCC properties and materials, mixture proportioning, structural design, and production and construction considerations, plus troubleshooting guidelines and an extensive reference list for more comprehensive information.

Book A Study on Performance of Roller Compacted Concrete Pavement in Accelerated Pavement Tests

Download or read book A Study on Performance of Roller Compacted Concrete Pavement in Accelerated Pavement Tests written by Chamroeun Chhorn and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roller-compacted concrete pavement, or RCCP, is well-known for its low cost and fast construction. Through compaction, the friction induced by aggregate interlock provides additional load carry capacity at the beginning of construction. Although its construction procedure is quite different from typical conventional concrete pavement, RCCP consists of the same basic ingredients as conventional concrete pavement. The characteristics of RCCP make it an excellent alternative for port, intermodal, street, and highway applications. Even though this pavement has been used for decades, research on and experiences in its application are still limited, particularly in Korea. In order to evaluate the performance of RCCP, two phases of an accelerated pavement test were conducted. In Phase One, the performance of RCCP at two different strengths (35.6 and 30.4 MPa) is evaluated. In Phase Two, the performance of RCCP with different thicknesses (5, 7.5, and 10 cm) is investigated. The number of load repetitions to fatigue crack occurrence in each section is compared to the estimated fatigue failure determined from the fatigue equation for RCCP. The crack development in each section is compared to the crack model for jointed plain concrete pavement. Overall, it is confirmed that RCCP has equal or better performance compared to the estimation in terms of fatigue cracking.
