Download or read book Ultra thin Portland Cement Concrete Overlay Extended Evaluation written by James K. Cable and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iowa ultra-thin project demonstrated the application of thin portland cement concrete overlays as a rehabilitation technique. It combined the variables of base preparation, overlay thickness, slab size, and fiber enhancement into a series of test sections over a 7.2-mile length. This report identifies the performance of the overlays in terms of deflection reduction, reduced cracking, and improved bonding between the portland cement concrete (PCC) and asphalt cement concrete (ACC) base layers. The original research project was designed to evaluate the variables over a 5-year period of time. A second project provided the opportunity to test overlay rehabilitation techniques and continue measurement of the original overlay performance for 5 additional years.

Book excerpt: This report presents the latest information on the design, construction and performance of portland cement concrete (PCC) overlays. It describes the four types of PCC overlays that are commonly used in highway pavement applications: bonded PCC overlays, unbonded PCC overlays, conventional whitetopping and ultra-thin whitetopping. Recommended applications, critical design elements, current overlay design methodologies, recommended construction practices, and performance highlights are described for each overlay type. Information is also provided on the selection of PCC overlays as possible rehabilitation alternatives for existing pavements. Taken together, this document addresses the current "state of the technology" of PCC overlays placed on both existing PCC pavements and on existing hot-mix asphalt pavements.

Book Performance of Nongrouted Thin Bonded P C C  Overlays

Download or read book Performance of Nongrouted Thin Bonded P C C Overlays written by Mark K. Kaler and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iowa road system has approximately 13,000 miles of Portland Cement Concrete Pavements, many of which are reaching the stage where major rehabilitation is required. Age, greater than anticipated traffic, heavier loads and deterioration related to coarse aggregate in the original pavement are some of the reasons that these pavements have reached this level of distress. One method utilized to rehabilitate distressed or underdesigned PCC pavements is the thin bonded Portland Cement Concrete overlay. Since the introduction of thin bonded overlays on highway pavements in 1973, the concrete paving industry has made progress in reducing the construction costs of this rehabilitation technique. With the advent of the shotblast machine, surface preparation costs have decreased from over $4.00 per square yard to most recently $1.42 per square yard. Other construction costs, including placement, grouting and sawing, have also declined. With each project, knowledge and efficiency have improved.

Book Portland Cement Concrete Resurfacing

Download or read book Portland Cement Concrete Resurfacing written by Kenneth H. McGhee and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 1994 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis report will be of special interest to pavement designers, materials engineers, and others seeking information on portland cement concrete resurfacings (overlays) placed over both portland and asphalt cement concrete pavements. Information is presented on the various practices in use for the design, material selection, and construction techniques associated with each pavement type. Additional information is provided on resurfacing experience and performance, including an Appendix cataloging more than 700 existing resurfacing projects in North America. Transportation agencies in the United States are continuing to develop pavement management systems which take an objective and structured approach to life-cycle cost analysis requirements for pavement rehabilitation project analysis. This report of the Transportation Research Board also discusses the considerations involved in the selection of technically feasible resurfacing alternatives. Based on the longitudinal experience of 375 resurfacing projects that were cataloged in 1982 and the more than 700 projects identified in 1993, much useful information on the performance characteristics of portland cement concrete resurfacing is presented.

Book Structural Overlay Strategies for Jointed Concrete Pavements

Download or read book Structural Overlay Strategies for Jointed Concrete Pavements written by Walter P. Kilareski and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major field study and evaluation has been conducted into the effectiveness of three structural overlay types for portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. These include sawing and sealing asphalt concrete (AC) overlays of PCC pavements, cracking and seating PCC pavements prior to AC overlay, and constructing a thin bonded PCC overlay on top of the existing PCC pavement. Condition surveys, deflection testing, and roughness measurements were performed on a total of 55 sections. The performance of these sections was evaluated and the effectiveness of each overlay type analyzed.

Book Evaluation of Performance and Design of Ultra Thin Whitetopping  Bonded Concrete Resurfacing  Using Large Scale Accelerated Pave

Download or read book Evaluation of Performance and Design of Ultra Thin Whitetopping Bonded Concrete Resurfacing Using Large Scale Accelerated Pave written by Scott Newbolds and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2008-05-01 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultra-Thin Whitetopping (UTW) is a pavement rehabilitation technique that involves the placement of a thin Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) overlay, 2 inches (50 mm) to 4 inches (100 mm) thick, over a distressed Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) pavement. Typically, the HMA pavement is milled and cleaned which helps to create a bond between the existing HMA pavement and the PCC overlay. The bond between the two layers promotes composite action of the pavement section and as a result has a direct impact on the performance of the UTW Pavement. This composite action allows for the reduced thickness in the UTW layer. Additionally, a short joint spacing is typically used, which reduces the UTW flexural and curling stresses. In this study three different test areas were constructed in the INDOT/Purdue University Accelerated Pavement Testing facility. Each test area had different lanes that varied by concrete mix design, bonding preparation, and pavement crosssection. These sections were subjected to 300,000 to 560,000 load applications. An additional test area was constructed outside the facility to evaluate pavement thicknesses and environmental effects. The project resulted in a modified UTW design methodology that takes into account the stiffness of all underlying pavement layers. Additionally, the project provides insight into the effects of pavement section, UTW mix design, mechanical loading, bond conditions, and environmental loading on the performance of UTW.
