Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past 20 years, New York has investigated methods to retard reflection cracking in bituminous overlays on rigid pavements. Those actually tried had all been previously reported successful by other agencies. Unfortunately, only a few were successful here and the results provided two reasons for this discrepancy, both of which were resolved during the work. One is that crack initiation is due solely to horizontal movement, and the other that slab length and temperature change, generally not reported elsewhere, are important considerations in reflection cracking.

This book was released on 1975 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of efforts in Virginia to reduce the incidence of reflection cracking when portland cement concrete pavements or bases are overlayed with asphaltic concrete are reported. The methods of reflection crack reduction discussed are: (1) The use of sand as a bond breaker between portland cement concrete pavements and asphaltic overlays, (2) the use of a high tensile strength fabric as a stress relieving layer between two asphaltic concrete overlays of an old portland cement concrete pavement on a weak subbase, and (3) the use of two types of fabric as stress relieving layers between asphaltic layers and a concrete base on a very strong subbase and subgrade. The following conclusions were drawn. 1. Neither sand as a bond breaker nor high strength fabrics as stress relieving layers are effective in reducing reflection cracking where vertical joint movement (differential deflection) is a significant factor. 2. When differential deflections are greater than about 0.002 in (0.05 mm) reflection cracks form early. Such cracking is delayed for lower differential deflection but may occur as the magnitude and frequency of wheel loadings increase. 3. Both an asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric and an unwoven, spun-bonded nylon fabric, when placed to span joints in portland cement concrete base and covered with an asphaltic concrete, overlay, are able to sustain the formation of reflection cracking in the overlaying layer without undergoing damage. 4. An asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric spanning the joints in portland cement concrete pavements, and placed between the pavement and an asphaltic overlay, may be effective in reducing the infiltration of surface water to pavement sub-layers. There is some evidence that pavement pumping may be reduced by this method. 5. Both an asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric and an unwoven, spun-bonded nylon fabric can delay the formation of reflection cracking. There is strong evidence, however, that such cracking is fatigue in nature and will eventually develop under the application of repetitive wheel loadings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crack reflection through a road structure is one of the main causes of premature pavement deterioration. This is a widespread problem in many countries and highway maintenance authorities are having to find economic means of repairing and upgrading their pavements. This book is the eagerly awaited state-of-the-art report which considers all different aspects of the subject including assessment and use of overlay systems.

This book was released on 1962 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paper 1 evaluates the use of welded wire fabric reinforcement to alleviate rutting and/or shoving of pavement at intersections, and compares the effectiveness of extra thickness of asphaltic concrete overlays over portland cement concrete vs the use of welded wire reinforcement in the asphaltic concrete overlay to control reflection cracking in the asphaltic concrete surface. Paper 2 concerns a method of controlling reflection cracks in bituminous concrete overlays over the transverse joints of rigid pavements. Paper 3 concerns the experiences in district no. 4 of the New York State Department of Public Works with the salvage and restoration of old concrete pavements. Paper 4: Maintenance programs during the first 8 years of commercial airline operation at Willow Run Airfield are described.
Download or read book The Use of Fabric Reinforced Overlays to Control Reflection Cracking of Composite Pavements written by Kenneth H. McGhee and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fabric reinforcement was used in an attempt to prevent reflection cracking of two bituminous concrete layers overlying an 8-inch plain (unreinforced, unjointed) concrete base that was underlain by a portland cement stabilized subbase material. On these pavements it was expected that the extremely rigid base and subbase layers would reduce vertical motion to a minimum. Similar pavements constructed with no overlay reinforcement readily showed reflection cracking in the bituminous layers, presumably because of horizontal, thermally induced movements of shrinkage cracks in the concrete base.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major field study and evaluation has been conducted into the effectiveness of three structural overlay types for portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. These include sawing and sealing asphalt concrete (AC) overlays of PCC pavements, cracking and seating PCC pavements prior to AC overlay, and constructing a thin bonded PCC overlay on top of the existing PCC pavement. Condition surveys, deflection testing, and roughness measurements were performed on a total of 55 sections. The performance of these sections was evaluated and the effectiveness of each overlay type analyzed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to pavement designers, maintenance engineers, and others interested in reducing reflection cracking of asphalt overlays on portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement. Information is presented on the technique of breaking or cracking of the concrete pavement into small segments before overlaying with asphalt concrete. Asphalt concrete overlays on existing PCC pavements are subject to reflection cracking induced by thermal movements of PCC pavement. This report of the Transportation Research Board discusses the technique of breaking/cracking and seating of the existing PCC before an overlay as a means to reduce or eliminate reflection cracking.
