Book Evaluation of Typical Pavement Drainage Systems Using Open Graded Bituminous Aggregate Mixture Drainage Layers

Download or read book Evaluation of Typical Pavement Drainage Systems Using Open Graded Bituminous Aggregate Mixture Drainage Layers written by Ernest J. Barenberg and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was aimed at evaluating the performance of pavement drainage systems that can be used in the State of Illinois using locally available aggregate sources for construction of these drainage systems. The study was limited to investigations on the use of open-graded, hot-mixed bituminous aggregate mixtures (OGBAM), for use in the pavement drainage system. A preliminary investigation was carried out in the laboratory to evaluate the permeability and the stability of the OGBAM. Specimens were prepared according to the procedures given by ASTM D 1559, Resistance to Plastic Flow of Bituminous Mixtures Using Marshall Apparatus. Permeability test (using a constant-head permeameter that allowed the measurement of permeability at low heads) and stability test were performed on the same specimen. Using the results of the preliminary investigations, six test pavements (4 feet long) incorporating different design concepts were tested in the University of Illinois Test Track. Dynamic loading was applied to the test pavements and water was passed through the OGBAM drainage layers to simulate surface and lateral infiltration. Permeability tests at constant head were carried out regularly on the pavement test sections. The progress of rutting in the test pavements was also recorded. Results of these limited tests indicate that OGBAM possess a very high order of permeability, and that care must be taken to prevent the migration of subgrade fines into the OGBAM layers for satisfactory performance of OGBAM layers with regards to drainage. The report outlines some of the methods that can be used to ensure satisfactory performance of pavements using OGBAM layers.

Book Performance Evaluation of Drained Pavement Structures

Download or read book Performance Evaluation of Drained Pavement Structures written by T. S. Rutkowski and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research study focused on positive drainage of pavement structures. The open-graded base course concepts included non-stabilized, asphalt cement concrete (AC) stabilized and portland cement concrete (PCC) stabilized. Drainage systems included pipe in trenches, fin-type, pipe beneath transverse joints and retrofitted pipe. Non-drainage elements included 3.05 m (14 ft) wide driving lanes, and a 30.48 cm (12 in.) layer of "select embankment". Twelve projects were monitored, both portland cement concrete surface and asphaltic concrete surface. Measurement surveys included Pavement Distress Index (PDI), transverse joint faulting, International Roughness Index (IRI) ride quality, and coring at the transverse joints.

Book Pavement Drainage  Theory and Practice

Download or read book Pavement Drainage Theory and Practice written by G L Sivakumar Babu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SUMMARY This book provides complete coverage of surface and subsurface drainage of all types of pavements for highways, urban roads, parking lots, airports, and container terminals. It provides up-to-date information on the principles and technologies for designing and building drainage systems and examines numerous issues, including maintenance and designing for flood events. Practical considerations and sophisticated analysis, such the use of the finite element method and unsaturated soil mechanics, anisotropy and uncertainties, are presented. This book allows civil engineers to make the best use of their resources to provide cost effective and sustainable pavements. Features Presents a holistic consideration of drainage with respect to pavement performance. Includes numerous practical case studies. Examines flooding and the impacts of climate change. Includes PowerPoint slides which include quizzes, schematics, figures, and tables.
