Evaluation of modified single seal surface treatments / by Maupin, G. W.(CARDINAL)754762; Payne, Charles W.(CARDINAL)314552; Virginia.Department of Transportation.(CARDINAL)291718; University of Virginia.(CARDINAL)141178; Virginia Transportation Research Council.(CARDINAL)195142;
Includes bibliographical references (page 16).Final report.This report describes a field study of a multicourse asphalt emulsion chip seal, designated as a modified single seal. The treatment, already used in North Carolina, consists of an application of emulsion and coarse aggregate followed by another application of emulsion and a final layer of fine aggregate. Sixty sections were placed in three districts in 1986-88, totaling approximately 400 lane-km of surfacing. These sections were evaluated periodically by a team of local operations personnel and research staff. The operations personnel also provided estimates of service life for conventional single chip seals, used for a cost-benefit analysis. The modified seals performed better and were more cost-effective than conventional surface treatments. Also, the hazard of broken windshields caused by loose aggregate was virtually eliminated on the modified seal treatments. The report includes recommendations for ensuring that the final product is of high quality. The recommendations include using a pilot vehicle, limiting the speed of construction traffic, using clean dry blot aggregate, applying the coarse aggregate not more than one stone thick, and using the proper nozzles on the asphalt distributor.Sponsored by the Virginia Dept. of Transportation and the University of Virginia. Performed by Virginia Transportation Research Council, under project no.

Rehabilitation of prestressed concrete bridge components by non-electrical (conventional) methods / by Whiting, D.(David)(CARDINAL)317085; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839; Construction Technology Laboratories (Portland Cement Association)(CARDINAL)286967;
Includes bibliographical references (page 119).Introduction -- Technology review and field surveys -- Specimen preparation and treatment -- Results -- Summary, conclusions, and recommendations -- References.Final report;This report describes a technology review, field surveys, and laboratory investigations into the corrosion of prestressed concrete highway bridge elements and conventional repair methods used for these structures. Details of the technology review and field surveys are given in an Interim Report (FHWA-RD-95-041). Subsequent to completion of the field surveys, a laboratory program designed to evaluate corrosion performance of conventional concrete repair materials was initiated. Test specimens were precorroded by application of anodic current while exposed to chloride solutions. In order to study conventional concrete repairs, it was necessary to remove concrete from preselected areas on each purposely corroded test specimen and replace the chloride-contaminated/deteriorated original concrete with repair materials. Materials evaluated included conventional portland cement concrete, latex-modified fiber-reinforced patching mortar, and silica fume concrete containing either organic or inorganic corrosion inhibitors. Specimens where concrete was not removed were used to study the effects of sealers and coating applied on concrete surfaces to mitigate ongoing corrosion. All specimens were exposed for approximately 200 weeks to a 15% solution of sodium chloride after repair. At the conclusion of exposure, patches were removed from repair specimens and the steel and the applied coatings were examined.Performed by Construction Technology Laboratories, Inc., under contract no.
