Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 537: Impact of Asphalt Thickness on Pavement Quality documents transportation agency policy for lift thickness and minimum compaction requirements on resultant asphalt pavement quality. To achieve expected pavement performance, it is important that asphalt concrete (AC) have adequate density. A critical factor in achieving this density is the ratio of lift thickness to nominal maximum aggregate size (t/NMAS). The information in the report is designed to help make agencies aware of a range of practices other agencies use to achieve a desired t/NMAS ratio, ensuring that density of AC is adequate to meet expected pavement performance.

This book was released on 1989 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis will be of interest to construction and materials engineers, paving contractors, equipment manufacturers, and others who are involved in assessing the performance of asphalt pavements. Information is presented on various issues related to compaction of asphalt pavements. Compaction is one of the most important factors affecting the performance of asphalt pavements. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the theory, methods, equipment, and specifications related to the compaction of asphalt pavements. A brief history of, the importance of, and factors affecting compaction are also discussed. Construction influences, density measurements, and trends are also considered.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a summary of the results of a compaction study using recycled hot mix asphalt concrete conducted during August 1983 in an indoor facility at CRREL in Hanover, New Hampshire. This study compared three kinds of compactors for optimum performance, and also considered such factors as temperature of the asphalt concrete mix, number of passes, size and depth of patches, and the number of lifts to fill the holes. Results showed that a vibratory roller and vibratory plate compactor could both compact patches to the desired 98% of laboratory density, but that a 200-lb lawn roller could not. Temperature of the hot recycled mix is critical, with 250 F being the cut-off temperature. It was shown that if the mix is not compacted promptly after placement and is allowed to cool below 250 F, proper compaction may not be attained. Single lifts of 3-in., 6-in. and 9-in. depth were compacted to 98% density using the vibratory plate compactor on mix above 250 F in 18-x24-in. holes. In larger 3-x4-ft holes, 98% density was obtained only with the steel wheel vibratory roller on patches placed in two 3-in.-thick lifts. The number of coverages of the compactors influences densities obtained. By doubling coverages of the steel wheel vibratory compactor from 6 to 12, the density increased from 96.9% to 99.0%.

Book excerpt: "TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 531: Relationship of Air Voids, Lift Thickness, and Permeability in Hot-Mix Asphalt Pavements provides guidance for hot-mix asphalt pavement construction designed to achieve satisfactory levels of in-place air voids and permeability. This guidance was developed from the findings of a research project that examined the relationship of air voids content to permeability and hot-mix asphalt lift thickness. The full finding of the research were published as NCHRP Web Document 68"--Publisher's description.
