Book excerpt: This study presents the evaluation of low-temperature performance of seal coat in terms of friction performance and aggregate-loss performance. In addition, factors affecting the seal-coat performance at low temperature were also investigated. Ten seal coats on U.S. highways and State Roads in Indiana were selected and the friction tests were conducted in spring and fall for approximately 4 to 6 years after the construction. Three emulsions and seven aggregates consisting of CRS-2 P, RS-2 P, and AE-90 S for emulsions and trap rock, sandstone, blast furnace slag, steel slag, limestone, dolomite, and crushed gravel were used for the Vialit test for aggregate-loss performance, the zeta potential test for the effect of electrostatic property, and the bending beam rheometer (BBR) test and thermomechanical analysis (TMA) test for the effect of mechanical and thermo-properties of emulsion. Friction numbers on ten seal coats constructed in Indiana from 2007 and 2013 showed that the winter season has a more significant impact on the friction reduction than the impact the summer season has. The Vialit test result showed that an increase in aggregate loss occurred as the temperature decreased, regardless of aggregate-emulsion combinations. The low-temperature aggregate loss is more sensitive to the emulsion type than to the aggregate type. The higher zeta potential of emulsion resulted in better aggregate-loss performance at low temperatures below -17°C. However, the effect of electrostatic interaction between the aggregate and emulsion particles on aggregate-loss performance was found to be statistically insignificant. The emulsion with a softer binder (lower stiffness) performed better than the emulsion containing a stiffer binder in terms of aggregate-loss performance at low temperatures. Last, the coefficients of thermal expansion of emulsion residues were not an influence on factors affecting the low-temperature aggregate-loss performance using the three emulsion types.

Download or read book Seals and Sealing Handbook written by Robert K. Flitney and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wherever machinery operates there will be seals of some kind ensuring that the machine remains lubricated, the fluid being pumped does not leak, or the gas does not enter the atmosphere. Seals are ubiquitous, in industry, the home, transport and many other places. This 5th edition of a long-established title covers all types of seal by application: static, rotary, reciprocating etc. The book bears little resemblance to its predecessors, and Robert Flitney has re-planned and re-written every aspect of the subject. No engineer, designer or manufacturer of seals can afford to be without this unique resource. - Wide engineering market - Bang up to date! - Only one near competitor, now outdated
Download or read book Chip Seal Best Practices written by Douglas D. Gransberg and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2005 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 342: Chip Seal Best Practices examines ways to assist in the development and implementation of pavement preservation programs by identifying the benefits of using chip seal as part of a preventive maintenance program and by highlighting advanced chip seal programs in use around the world. The report includes approximately 40 best practices in the areas of chip seal design methods, contract administration, equipment practices, construction practices, and performance measures. According to the report, the increased use of chip seals for maintenance can be a successful, cost-effective way of using preventive maintenance to preserve both low-volume and higher-volume pavements.

Download or read book Antarctic Environments and Resources written by J.D. Hansom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antarctica is no longer a 'pole apart'. From a scientific perspective, the Antarctic ice sheet, ocean and climate systems are intimately linked with the global climate and are now seen to be of international significance for understanding climate change. From an economic perspective, the Antarctic is perceived to have great potential as a source of marine resources although the extent of speculated mineral and hydrocarbon resources is unknown. From a conservation perspective, the continent of Antarctica represents the ideal image of unspoiled wilderness. Antarctic Environments and Resources is an accessible and timely new geography of the Antarctic which examines the differing and sometimes conflicting interests in the great southern continent, the Southern Ocean and the subantarctic islands against a background of the physical and natural systems of the region and their interactions. It charts the development of human involvement in the area, focusing on the exploitation of resources from early sealing to modern fisheries, tourism and science, and it assesses the consequent impacts on the natural environment. The text also reviews the emerging framework for future environmental management developed under the Antarctic Treaty System. This is an ideal text for undergraduates studying glacial geomorphology, environmental management, polar regions and the Antarctic.
