Book Description
Geotextiles (engineering fabrics) were installed at four locations in Texas to evaluate their potential as cost-effective measures to reduce or delay reflection cracking in asphalt concrete overlays. The overlaid pavements included asphalt concrete, continuously reinforced portland cement concrete, and a freshly cold-milled asphalt concrete. Test pavements were approximately 0.25 mile in length with the fabric installed edge to edge. Nine different types of commercially available geotextiles comprised of nonwoven polypropylene or polyester were tested. One woven experimental product composed of polypropylene and polyester was also tested. Resistance to reflective cracking has been evaluated for up to 10 years.

Book Description
Iowa's first field application of synthetic engineering fabrics was on research project HR-158, "Prevention of Reflective Cracking in Asphalt Overlays". This research placed in September 1971 used three different engineering fabrics. A final report concluding generally favorable performance was distributed in May 1977. There have been a number of Iowa engineering fabric installations since that initial project

Evaluation of Asphalt Rubber and Engineering Fabrics as Pavement Interlayers
Author: Randy C. Ahlrich
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Pavements
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Asphalt-rubber and engineering fabric interlayers have been used to retard reflective cracks in asphalt concrete overlays. These materials have generally performed satisfactorily in warm climates; however, performance in cold climates has been less than desirable. The asphalt-rubber and engineering fabric rehabilitation techniques have been used to retard the reflection of cracks in existing asphalt concrete and portland cement concrete pavements through asphalt concrete overlays. These rehabilitation techniques also decrease the size of cracks that reflect through, thus retarding the amount of water penetrating into the base course and underlying subgrade. Guidance is provided for using asphalt rubber and engineering fabrics to maximize performance in reducing reflective cracking. This study should result in improved performance of overlays and, subsequently, substantial monetary savings to the taxpayers.

ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 950
Book Description
This synthesis will be of interest to pavement designers, maintenance engineers, and others interested in methods and procedures for reducing reflection cracking of asphalt overlays. Information is provided on the use of paving fabrics and membranes in pavement rehabilitation. Reflection cracking of pavement overlays results in decreased pavement performance with respect to ride quality, structural support, skid resistance, and safety. The use of fabrics is one of the alternatives that are available to reduce or delay reflection cracking. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the experiences of agencies in the use of fabrics and membranes for reduction of reflection cracking.
