Field study of a shredded-tire embankment / by Hoppe, Edward J.(CARDINAL)314794; Virginia.Department of Transportation.(CARDINAL)291718; Virginia Transportation Research Council.(CARDINAL)195142;
Includes bibliographical references (page 15).Interim report.This report presents interim data from the ongoing field study of an experimental shredded-tire embankment constructed near Williamsburg, Virginia. Approximately 1.7 million tires were used. This constitutes the largest reported use to date of waste tires in a structural fill in the United States. The aim of this study is to conduct a comparative performance analysis of conventional and shredded-tire embankments. The results to date indicate that the settlement of a shredded-tire embankment significantly exceeds that of a soil embankment. After construction, expansion of the shredded-tirefill was also observed.Sponsored by the Virginia Department of Transportation and the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, under contract no.
