Concrete Pavement Design, Construction, and Performance
Author: Norbert Delatte
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1482288486
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 391
Book Description
Addressing the interactions between the different design and construction variables and techniques this book illustrates best practices for constructing economical, long life concrete pavements. The book proceeds in much the same way as a pavement construction project. First, different alternatives for concrete pavement solutions are outlined. The desired performance and behaviour parameters are identified. Next, appropriate materials are outlined and the most suitable concrete proportions determined. The design can be completed, and then the necessary construction steps for translating the design into a durable facility are carried out. Although the focus reflects highways as the most common application, special features of airport, industrial, and light duty pavements are also addressed. Use is made of modeling and performance tools such as HIPERPAV and LTPP to illustrate behavior and performance, along with some case studies. As concrete pavements are more complex than they seem, and the costs of mistakes or of over-design can be high, this is a valuable book for engineers in both the public and private sectors.

Accelerated Testing for Studying Pavement Design and Performance (FY 2003)

ISBN:
Category : Pavements

Pages : 194
Book Description
The Midwest States Accelerated Pavement Testing Pooled Fund Program, financed by the highway departments of Missouri, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, has supported an accelerated pavement testing (APT) project to compare the performance of stabilized clayey embankment soil when Portland cement, fly ash, lime and a commercial product were used as stabilizing agents. The project aimed to improve the practices related to the design of flexible pavements when the top of the subgrade is improved by chemical stabilization. The experiments were conducted at the Civil Infrastructure Systems Laboratory (CISL) of Kansas State University. The test program consisted of constructing four flexible pavement structures and subjecting them to full-scale accelerated loading test. The study indicated that cement and lime are the most effective stabilizers for the studied soil. These stabilizers resulted in lower vertical compressive stresses at the top of the subgrade and lower rut depth at the pavement surface than the fly ash-treated soil. After more than two million axle load repetitions, the pavement with cement stabilized embankment soil exhibited much less surface cracking than the pavement with fly-ash stabilized embankment. The commercial product proved not to be effective in stabilizing the non-sulfate clayey soil used in this experiment, when the embankment is constructed at the same moisture content and compaction level as for the other three chemicals. The unconfined compression strength measured on laboratory prepared samples of soil stabilized with the commercial chemical compound was very similar to that of the untreated soil.

Book Description
This report covers the Fiscal Year 2002 project conducted at the Accelerated Testing Laboratory at Kansas State University. The project was selected and funded by the Midwest Accelerated Testing Pooled Fund Program, which includes Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. The objective of this research was to determine the effectiveness of the use of foamed asphalt stabilized Recycled Asphalt Pavement from full-depth reclamation (FAS-FDR) as base material for flexible pavements. The experiment consisted of constructing four pavements, one with a 9-in. conventional Kansas AB-3 granular base and three with 6-, 9-, and 12-in. FAS-FDR, and subjecting them to full-scale accelerated pavement test.
