Book Preservation Approaches for High traffic volume Roadways

Download or read book Preservation Approaches for High traffic volume Roadways written by David G. Peshkin and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2011 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Report S2-R26-RR-1: Preservation Approaches for High-Traffic-Volume Roadways documents the state of the practice of preservation treatment on asphalt and concrete pavements on high- and low-volume roadways. The report also includes general guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways. The same project that produced SHRP 2 Report S2-R26-RR-1 also produced SHRP 2 Report S2-R26-RR-2: Guidelines for the Preservation of High-Traffic-Volume Roadways, which explores the state of the practice for preservation treatments on high- and low-volume asphalt and concrete roadways. The report also includes suggested guidelines on the application of preservation treatments on high-volume roadways.

Book Evaluation of Experimental Flexible Pavements

Download or read book Evaluation of Experimental Flexible Pavements written by Kenneth H. McGhee and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A program of construction and performance evaluation of seven Virginia flexible pavements containing at least some experimental features is reported. The objective of the program is to evaluate the performance of the pavements incorporating new or timely design concepts and to assess the flexibility of these concepts for further use. Among the major findings of the study to this point are the following. 1. Pavements having equivalent design thickness indices are not necessarily equivalent in construction cost or in early structural strength, 2. Very early deflection tests do not give good indications of the ultimate strength characteristics of pavements having cement stabilized layers. Full-depth asphaltic concrete pavements can give excellent performance in very poor soil areas, especially when the design is modified through the provision of a cement stabilized subgrade. An unstabilized sandwich layer placed between a cement stabilized layer and asphaltic concrete layers is effective in significantly delaying the reflection of transverse cracking from the cement stabilized layer through the asphaltic concrete layers. There is some evidence that reflective cracks may develop after many years under heavy truck traffic. Such a sandwich layer is weaker than either of the two layers it contacts and can cause a net reduction in pavement strength as compared with the situation where the weaker layer is on the bottom. Transverse shrinkage cracks reflect from a cement treated stone subbase through 3 inches (75 mm) of bituminous concrete in as little as 18 months and through 7 inches (175 mm) of bituminous concrete in less than 5 years. Cement treatment of stone subbases can be omitted in passing lanes with no detriment to performance. (This may not be true with traffic volumes near capacity because of the change in distribution of truck usage as that point is approached.

Book Gravel Roads

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.
