Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research is to develop statistically based acceptance/rejection plans and payment adjustment schedules for five specifications covered under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular (AC) No. 150/5370/10, Standards for Specifying the Construction of Airports, namely: Excavation and Embankment, Crushed Aggregate Base Course, Cement Treated Base Course, Econocrete Subbase Course, and Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. Previously, the Pennsylvania State University developed plans for Specification P-401, Plant Mix Bituminous Pavements, which were adopted for use in 1984. This report includes the statistical analysis of data, development of payment adjustment plans (PAP), and development of PAP computer diskette system. Test data used for this effort were collected from field sources. The developed PAP formulas, schedules, and computer diskette system were verified using new pavement construction projects. This report is divided into two volumes with Volume I, Development, describing the development of PAP, and Volume II, Computer Operator's Manual, describing the operation details of the PAP diskette system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was undertaken to extend the use of statistically based airport pavement materials specifications that incorporate price-adjustment features. During the course of the project, data on the physical characteristics of pavement materials were collected from thirteen airport pavement construction projects. A statistical analysis of this data permitted the determination of the parameters (mean and standard deviation) on existing airport construction projects, and these parameters were then used to develop acceptance plans and price-adjustment factors. Operating Characteristics (OC) curves and curves of expected payment were used to determine the appropriate acceptance plans, which were based on the percentage of material falling within specification limits (PWL). By using a continuous rather than a discrete price-adjustment schedule, it was possible to avoid the problem of large differences in payment associated with relatively small differences in quality (as measured by PWL). A computer program was developed to approximate the expected payment curves associated with different continuous price-adjustment systems. This program is applicable to one-sided specification limits such as density. For properties such as air voids, which require both an upper and a lower specification limit, the OC curves were determined by computer simulation of 10,000 randomly drawn samples. (Author).

L Burati (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two aspects concerning evaluation by the Marshall method of bituminous airport pavement construction were addressed. Results from field Marshall and extraction tests were analyzed to identify correlations among the Marshall properties--stability, flow, and air voids--and asphalt content and aggregate gradation, This was done to evaluate the implementation of a multiple price adjustment system based on Marshall properties, and for the development of mathematical models for estimating each property from the percent asphalt content and aggregate gradation. Data were obtained from 5 airport paving projects; however, 2 of these had such small tonnages that there were not sufficient data to prove meaningful. A moderately low negative correlation exists between stability and air voids, while no statistically significant correlation was found to exist between stability and flow. The flow and air voids correlations were not consistent among the two projects considered, with one suggesting a moderately low negative correlation, and the other no statistically significant one. The mathematical models developed for stability, flow, and air voids from extracted asphalt content and aggregate gradation were not good predictors of those properties. This is probably due to primarily to the relatively high sampling and testing variability associated with the field extraction tests. Keywords: Acceptance Plans, Marshall Properties, Price Adjustments, Statistical Quality Control, and Correlation.
