Download or read book Gravel Roads written by Ken Skorseth and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Download or read book Evaluation of Aggregate Subgrade Materials Used as Pavement Subgrade granular Subbase written by Hasan Kazmee and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With recent focus on sustainable construction practices and the ever-increasing transportation costs and scarcity of natural resources, integration of large-size and marginally acceptable aggregates and recycled materials (e.g., reclaimed asphalt pavement [RAP]) with current construction specifications is becoming imperative. As an incentive, the Illinois Department of Transportation has been using large-size rocks, popularly known as aggregate subgrade. However, adequate scientific knowledge about material performance is largely unknown. To this end, a research study was undertaken at the Illinois Center for Transportation to evaluate the adequacy and field performances of IDOT's new aggregate subgrade specifications. A state-of-the-art image analysis technique was used to characterize the size and shape as well as the texture and angularity properties of selected aggregate subgrade materials. For field evaluation, 24 combinations of pavements were constructed over subgrade with controlled low immediate bearing value (IBV) or unsoaked California bearing ratio (CBR) strength properties. Construction quality control was achieved through inplace density and modulus measurements on aggregate layers using a nuclear gauge, lightweight deflectometer, and soil stiffness gauges. Periodic rut measurements were carried out on the pavement surface throughout the accelerated loading process using an Accelerated Transportation Loading Assembly (ATLAS). Contributions of the underlying pavement layers to the total rut accumulation were evaluated through innovative applications of groundpenetrating radar (GPR), a lightweight variable-energy penetrometer device, known as the PANDA, and a geoendoscopy probe. Layer intermixing and material migration at the aggregate subgrade-subgrade interface improved the foundation layer stiffness properties and pavement performance results significantly. RAPcapped construction platforms consistently exhibited a higher magnitude of rutting. Performances of flexible pavement sections were governed by the as-constructed HMA thicknesses, which varied considerably during the paver operation because of RAP subbase sinkage and the weak subgrade. Adequate validation and potential revisions to current IDOT specifications were recommended.

Download or read book Pavements Unbound written by Andrew Dawson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly all highway, airport, dock and industrial pavements contain large quantities of untreated aggregate in the form of unbound pavement layers. In many pavements, which are lightly or moderately trafficked, crushed rock or gravel derived aggregates comprise the majority of the construction or, in the case of unsealed pavements, all of the structure. This book provides studies of the performance and description of this material that will help the reader to better understand its characteristics and behaviour both alone and as part of the pavement structure it forms. This work will be useful to practitioners, policy makers, researchers and students. It forms a sequel to the earlier book "Unbound Aggregates in Road Construction" also published by Balkema
Download or read book Significant Findings from Full scale Accelerated Pavement Testing written by Wynand JvdM. Steyn and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2012 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 433: Significant Findings from Full-Scale Accelerated Pavement Testing documents and summarizes significant findings from the various experimental activities associated with full-scale accelerated pavement testing (f-sAPT) programs that have taken place between 2000 and 2011. The report also identifies gaps in knowledge related to f-sAPT and where future research may be needed. NCHRP Synthesis 433 is designed to expand the f-sAPT base of knowledge documented in NCHRP Syntheses 325 and 235, both with the same title of Significant Findings from Full-Scale Accelerated Pavement Testing. f-sAPT is the controlled application of a wheel loading, at or above the appropriate legal load limit, to a pavement system to determine pavement response in a compressed time period. The acceleration of damage is achieved by one or more of the following factors: increased repetitions, modified loading conditions, imposed climatic conditions, and thinner pavements with a decreased structural capacity which have shorter design lives"--
