Thin-surfaced Pavements
Author: Donald N. Geoffroy
Publisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 9780309061230
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
This synthesis report will be of interest to pavement design engineers in local, state, and federal transportation agencies. Pavement materials, construction, and maintenance engineers will also find it of interest. In addition, it will be of interest to local technology transfer centers and pavement research engineers. This synthesis describes the state of the practice for thin-surfaced pavement project selection and structural design. It does not establish preferential design criteria (e.g., mix design) nor does it systematically evaluate existing design methods. This report of the Transportation Research Board describes the conditions in which thin-surfaced pavements are considered appropriate, what thin-surfaced pavement types are considered appropriate for given conditions, and the decision criteria used in their selection. Information for the synthesis was collected by surveying state and local transportation agencies and by conducting a literature search, including foreign resources. Case studies and an extensive collection of survey data are presented.

Asphalt Surfacings
Author: J Cliff Nicholls
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0203477634
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 425
Book Description
Asphalt Surfacings has been written as a reference to the various asphalt course materials and surfacing treatments that are currently available to engineers, enabling them to select the materials and/or treatment that are appropriate for use on specific sites. Appropriate reference is made to the lower structural layers as the properties of all layers interact in producing the required pavement. The current established position in the UK and the emerging developments throughout the UK and Europe are covered. The contributors are all acknowledged authorities on their particular topics selected from every part of the highway engineering industry to achieve a balance between the various approaches required by the different functions they perform.

Asphalt Mixture Specification and Testing
Author: Cliff Nicholls
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351788671
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
This guide reviews the way asphalt mixture can be specified, with particular emphasis on the test methods used to measure performance. The advantages and limitations of the tests are described for measuring the desired property, and engineers can specify a test according to the material’s use. The book starts with a resume of specifications and their relative advantages and disadvantages for different situations. Then different properties are discussed in terms of: their specification; the test methods that can be used (primarily the EN 12697 suite of European methods, of which the author has been responsible for drafting); the extent to which the results predict performance; the levels that can be achieved with different asphalt mixes and types; what levels, if any, should be specified in various situations and pavement layers; and which other properties are adversely affected by enhanced performance. The final section covers various aspects of sustainability, with a strong emphasis on durability. Better understanding should enable clients and consultants who specify pavements to produce durable asphalt pavements more economically, and also help asphalt producers and students trying to understand the black art of asphalt.

Development of an Economical, Thin, Quiet, Long-lasting, and High Friction Surface Layer

Category : Asphalt cement

Pages :
Book Description
This project provides techniques to improve hot-mix asphalt (HMA) overlays specifically through the use of special additives and innovative surfacing technologies with aggregates that are locally available in Illinois. The ultimate goal is to improve pavement performance through optimized materials while also controlling cost by efficiently using local materials. Therefore, the proposed new mixes use locally available aggregates when possible. The project also considered the use of alternative aggregates such as steel slag to increase the friction quality of the HMA and therefore improve pavement performance. To evaluate the newly developed wearing course mixtures and evaluate their performance under actual traffic loading, test pavements were constructed, including control mixtures, between August and November 2010 in northern Illinois. The newly proposed mixtures include fine dense-graded HMA and stone matrix asphalt (SMA). The fine dense-graded HMA was designed using the Bailey method and developed with the hope of improved compactability for thinner asphalt layers. The SMA contained a 4.75-mm nominal maximum aggregate size (NMAS) that allows for layers as thin as 0.75 in.
