This book was released on 2007 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1994, a ramp containing two AC and two PCC sections in the SPS-8 experiment was constructed on the Ohio SHRP Test Road. In 1996, 36 more sections in the SPS-1, SPS-2 and SPS-9 experiments were opened to traffic on the mainline pavement. The response and performance of these sections, climatic information from an on-site weather station, subsurface environmental conditions from sensors installed in several test sections, and traffic loading from an on-site weigh-in-motion (WIM) system have been monitored and incorporated into the national LTPP database. Analyses of these data have been published in a number of reports, technical papers and bulletins. The research project documented in this report was the latest effort by ODOT to continue monitoring the response and performance of many of the original 40 test sections and several sections constructed later to replace the lighter designs which, as anticipated, showed early distress. Data in this report cover the years 2000-2005. In addition to the new response and performance data obtained on the test road, this report includes: an analysis of current methodologies to mathematically model AC and PCC pavement structures, a petrographic analysis of concrete from three different PCC pavement mixes and a lean concrete base, and an in-depth analysis of WIM data. Three other experimental pavements have been constructed on ATH 50, LOG 33 and ERI/LOR 2 to evaluate the response and performance of specific parameters of interest to ODOT. These parameters included: high performance concrete containing ground granulated blast furnace slag and different types of dowel bars on ATH 50, different types of base material under flexible pavement on LOG 33, and different types of base material under rigid pavement on ERI/LOR 2. This report also contains data collected on these three pavements during 2000-2005.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highway agencies across the nation are moving towards implementation of the new AASHTO Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) for pavement design. The benefits of implementing the MEPDG for routine use in Ohio includes (1) achieving more cost effective and reliable pavement designs, (2) lower initial and life cycle costs to the agency, and (3) reduced highway user impact due to lane closures for maintenance and rehabilitation of pavements. Implementation of the MEPDG is a process that requires time and agency resources (staffing, training, testing facilities including equipment, and so on). A key requirement is validating the MEPDG's nationally calibrated pavement distress and smoothness prediction models when applied under Ohio conditions and performing local calibration if needed. Feasibility of using the MEPDG's national models in Ohio was investigated under this study using data from a limited number of LTPP projects located in Ohio. Results based on limited data showed inadequate goodness of fit and significant bias in a number of the MEPDG new HMA pavement and JPCP performance prediction models. Limited recalibration of these models showed promising results indicating that a full-scale recalibration effort using a more extensive database assembled from projects located throughout the state is feasible.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NCHRP Report 583 explores the effects of subsurface drainage features on pavement performance through a program of inspection and testing of the subsurface drainage features present in the Long-Term Pavement Performance SPS-1 (flexible hot-mix asphalt pavement) and SPS-2 (rigid portland cement concrete pavement) field sections.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Route 30 bypass of Wooster, Ohio, in Wayne County, "WAY-30", was constructed to demonstrate two types of extended service pavements, a long-life Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement on the eastbound lanes and an asphalt concrete (AC) perpetual pavement on the westbound lanes. Both pavements are designed to provide 50 years or more of service with minimal maintenance (e.g. resurfacing). The PCC pavement structure features a thick and extra-wide slab on an asphalt treated base, while the AC pavement structure features a Superpave surface and a Fatigue Resistant Layer (FRL). Two sections in each direction were instrumented with pressure cells to monitor subgrade pressures and deep and shallow LVDTs to record pavement deflections. The AC test section also had transverse and longitudinal strain gages. A weather station was also used to monitor environmental conditions. Nondestructive testing of the subgrade was conducted prior to pavement placement. Pavement materials and samples were tested in the laboratory to determine material parameters. Controlled vehicle load and falling weight deflectometer tests were applied to the AC pavement shortly after the road opened to traffic in December 2005 and again under hot weather conditions in July 2006. Similar tests on the PCC pavement were conducted in December 2005 and August 2006. The response on both types of pavement met their respective design criteria. A verification analysis of the AC pavement response using the elastic layer system (ELS) simulation using material properties derived from laboratory and field sample data yielded unsatisfactory matches, suggesting that some refinement of the approach is needed

This book was released on 1996 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis, which describes the state of the practice for full- scale accelerated pavement testing (APT), will be of interest to state department of transportation (DOT) pavement design and materials engineers; DOT research staff, including field and laboratory materials testing personnel; and private industry APT equipment suppliers. State DOT administration and management personnel will have a particular interest in the application of APT results toward more efficient and effective pavement designs. Local transportation agencies may also have an interest in the topic. This synthesis reviews the capabilities and limitations of the major APT facilities available worldwide and describes the role and application of full-scale accelerated pavement testing in the development of pavement technology. This report of the Transportation Research Board (TRB) presents data obtained from a review of the literature and a survey of the state DOTs, Canadian transportation agencies, and international organizations. A brief historical overview of APT, a discussion of the application of APT to research, and the application of APT to practice are included. Profiles of APT facilities throughout the world are included in an appendix.
