Book excerpt: The site conditions just about always dictate the basic layout of a structure. The choices of materials and appearance are usually made by the engineer. The materials going into the structure get a great deal of attention, but unfortunately the appearance too frequently does not. It is not unusual then to find a very few structures with deficiencies stemming from the materials used, but many with deficiencies in appearance. This report is intended to acquaint the designer of highway structures with the more popular and presently used architectural concrete finishes to help him enhance the appearance of his structures. The various architectural concrete finishes obtainable from cast-in-place and precast processes are presented. General considerations such as appearance, weathering, and specifications for these finishes are discussed. A discussion is presented of the costs and practical considerations that need to be taken into account in selecting architectural concrete finishes for highway structures. The report does not deal with concrete paints or other superficial coatings.

Download or read book Concrete in Highway Engineering written by D. Raymond Sharp and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Series of Monographs in Civil Engineering, Volume 4: Concrete in Highway Engineering focuses on the design and construction of highways. The book first offers information on concrete as a material. Cement, aggregates, water, concrete mixes, and curing concrete are then explained. The text examines the design of pavements. Principles of design, traffic loading, design of flexible and concrete pavements, and types of pavement are underscored. The text looks at subgrade soils, sub-bases, and drainage. Topics such as moisture control and drainage; control of surface and subsoil water; and layouts for subsoil drainage and for surface water drainage are discussed. The text also examines the composition of concrete roads, prestressed concrete roads, and maintenance and repair techniques. The book then discusses the appearance and surface characteristics of concrete and construction in extreme weather conditions. The selection is a reliable reference for readers wanting to know about the design and construction of highways.

This book was released on 1962 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paper 1: Modern technology has made available new and improved materials, equipment, and techniques that contribute substantially to more economical construction of bridges. Emphasis in this report is placed upon the fields and categories in which advances have been made. A discussion is conducted of the economies that can be achieved by a designer with a complete awareness of shop practices in fabricating plants, form building processes and devices, falsework types available, welding equipment, and new materials. Paper 2: Establishment of structural concrete slabs on three-span continuous structures is usually accomplished by segmental placement. This results is difficulty in obtaining properly constructed, smooth riding surfaces. When composite design and construction was adopted, the segmental practice introduced other undesirable side effects. a request was received to place the structural slab with integral wearing course on the three-span continuous units on the Bruckner Expressway in the Bronx, New York.

This book was released on 2000-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the procedures for designing, placing and finishing wax beaded portland cement concrete. Also discussed are the guidelines and procedures for heating the cured concrete surface in order to melt the beads. Specifications for the wax beads, their shipment and storage, mix design, water cement ratio, finishing techniques an heat treatment are given, along with several testing procedures related specifically to wax beaded concrete.Steel rebar corrosion, caused by deicing salts or ocean spray, is considered the major cause of early deterioration of reinforced concrete bridge decks. Preventing chloride intrusion into the concrete has been widely studied as a means of eliminating the problem. One promising solution is set forth in this manual. It outlines and discusses step-by-step the use of wax beads to internally seal concrete and prevent the intrusion of the chloride ion.
