Download or read book Rapid Test Methods for Asphalt Concrete and Portland Cement Concrete written by Woodrow J. Halstead and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to materials and construction engineers, and others interested in the use of rapid test methods for asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete. Information is provided on the various test methods in use for process control and acceptance of these materials, as well as methods under development. State experience with these procedures, as well as discussions from the literature, are presented. There is growing use of rapid test methods for asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete in highway construction. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the current state of the practice with respect to the use of rapid test methods for these materials. Experience with short-cut and rapid test procedures for process control and acceptance is summarized, and a general description of the methods, their advantages and disadvantages, and their time and labor requirements are discussed based on a review of the literature and a survey of the states.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to administrators, including contract and specifications administrators; research, construction, materials, specification, and design engineers; agency project managers and staff; and highway construction contractors. It describes the state of the practice with respect to the development and present status of performance-related specifications (PRS) for highway materials and construction. This report of the Transportation Research Board summarizes the historical events that have prompted U.S. interest in PRS development and describes the underlying concepts. In addition, it describes current practice with regard to PRS implementation and refers to the principal PRS literature with emphasis on performance and cost models. It emphasizes the utility of PRS in providing objective/ rational measures that can be used for special contract conditions, such as incentive or disincentive adjustments.
Download or read book Rapid Test Methods for Field Control of Highway Construction written by John D. Antrim and published by National Academy Press. This book was released on 1970 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research was conducted to determine the state of the art in the development, need, and use of rapid test methods. The first phase comprises a literature survey of current practices in quality control and acceptance testing, along with a study using statistical methods to assess the time limits for rapid tests. The second phase is concerned with the development and evaluation of new rapid test methods or principles to select those worthy of further investigation. thirty-eight state highway departments participated in the study, and interviews were conducted when appropriate. The second phase of the study applied to rapid test methods for asphalt content determination, compaction control, gradation of several types of aggregate, density of base course materials and soils, and moisture content. The results of all tests are appended.

This book was released on 1958 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paper 1: A simple and portable instrument for use in estimating the compressive strength of hardened concrete in place has been developed recently by a Swiss engineer. The device, popularly known as the Swiss hammer, is designed for field use and is not intended as a substitute for control testing. Paper 2: This report describes a freezing and thawing procedure which requires about the same test period as the sulfate soundness test. The accelerated action of this test resulted from the use of a water-alcohol solution as the freezing medium rather than water.
