Book Description
Concrete pavements are facing rapid deterioration due to the increasing high traffic volumes. Maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction (MRR) have become major activities for all the state highway agencies. Due to shortage of available funding and continuous aging of pavements, many state highway agencies are now seeking cost-effective MRR strategies. This has led a need to develop a systematic and comprehensive decision process for selecting the optimum MRR strategy that considers pavement, traffic and construction issues. This research is an effort to help the state highway agencies select the maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction strategy for concrete pavements. The research identifies feasibility, suitability and acceptability criteria that every MRR strategy should meet. The rehabilitation strategies satisfying these criteria are then weighed in decision process to determine the optimum rehabilitation strategy. Research also focuses on developing recommendations for statewide methods for rehabilitating jointed concrete pavements so as to minimize reflective cracking. Data was collected from relevant project case studies to assess and improve the framework for decision process. Further research will be required to enhance the selection process.

Performance Report on Jointed Concrete Pavement Repair Strategies in Texas
Author: Tom Scullion
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Pavements, Concrete
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
Project 0-4517 was established to summarize the results from the Lufkin experiment on US 59 and to develop statewide guidelines on how to select rehabilitation strategies for jointed concrete pavements (JCP). This year 1 report reviews the performance of the six experimental sections on US 59 and makes recommendations for statewide implementation. The best performing section in Lufkin was the flexible base overlay, which involved placing high-quality crushed limestone directly over the JCP followed by an underseal and thin asphalt overlay. This was also one of the least expensive treatments used in the experiment. The large stone mix also gave good performance, but the crack and seat and full-depth repair techniques did not perform well. A forensic investigation was conducted to attempt to explain the variation in treatment performance. To complement the Lufkin results, a review is also presented of the performance of other JCP rehabilitation techniques recently evaluated by TxDOT districts. An evaluation of crack retarding asphalt layers (Strata(R)), grid layers (GlasGrid(R)) and slab fracturing techniques is also included in the report.
