Use of the impact-echo method in nondestructive measurements of the thickness of new concrete pavements / by Clemeña, G. G.(Gerardo G.)(CARDINAL)314479; Virginia Transportation Research Council.(CARDINAL)195142;
Includes bibliographical references (page 31).Final report;The nondestructive impact-echo (IE) method offers a simple means for introducing compressional stress waves into a concrete element or slab and measuring the resonance frequencies associated with the reflections of the waves from any internal voids and the bottom of the slab. It is relatively effective for detecting internal voids or delaminations in concrete, which is the application for which it was developed. It may also be possible to use the method for indirect measurement of the thickness of a slab if the wave propagation velocity in the concrete is known. This study was conducted to determine whether the IE method, by itself, could replace the use of coring for quality-assurance measurements of the thickness of concrete slabs in newly built pavements. The results from tests conducted on three pavements indicated that the wave velocity varied so much, not only between pavements but also within a pavement, that unacceptable errors can result when an average velocity is determined (through limited coring) for a pavement and subsequently assumed for the entire pavement. To reduce the error to an acceptable level, the wave velocity at any test location must be measured to within an acceptable accuracy by another independent method. In pursuit of this approach, an indirect-transmission procedure based on ultrasonic (UT) measurement was incorporated and tested. This combined IE/UT procedure was able to measure thickness with absolute errors of 5 mm in one pavement and 7 mm in another, at a 90% probability. These results can be considered encouraging since the current procedure requires that the length of a core reported to the nearest 3 mm be the average of several measurements around the core and, in some cores, these measurements can have a spread of as much as 13 mm. In addition, it is expected that these errors can be reduced easily with the use of a transducer with a smaller contact face that would be less sensitive to roughness on the surface of grooved concrete pavements.Sponsored by Virginia Department of Transportation, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration, under project no.

Ground penetrating radar surveys to characterize pavement layer thickness variations at GPS sites / by Maser, Kenneth R.(CARDINAL)323073; INFRASENSE, Inc.(CARDINAL)323072; Strategic Highway Research Program (U.S.)(CARDINAL)298325;
Includes bibliographical references (page 39).Executive summary -- Introduction -- Principles of ground penetrating radar -- Design and conduct of the test program -- Data analysis and results -- Discussion and evaluation of results -- Conclusions -- References --Appendix: Pavement layer thickness calculations and representative raw data samples for 10 SHRP GPS sites.A new nondestructive, noncontact method for thickness measurement is available and can be implemented from a survey vehicle moving at highway speed. The technology incorporates horn antenna radar equipment coupled with customized processing software. This report describes an accuracy evaluation of this technology in which results from 10 Strategic Highway Research Program Long Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) asphalt pavement sections in 10 states were compared to core data. The results were evaluated and reported in two steps--blind and calibrated.

The thick and the lean / by Porter, Chana,1984-author.(CARDINAL)814620;
"In the quaint religious town of Seagate, abstaining from food brings one closer to God. But Beatrice Bolano is hungry. She craves the forbidden: butter, flambé, marzipan. As Seagate takes increasingly extreme measures to regulate every calorie its citizens consume, Beatrice must make a choice: give up her secret passion for cooking or leave the only community she has known. Elsewhere, Reiko Rimando has left her modest roots for a college tech scholarship in the big city. A flawless student, she is set up for success ... until her school pulls her funding, leaving her to face either a mountain of debt or a humiliating return home. But Reiko is done being at the mercy of the system. She forges a third path--outside of the law. With the guidance of a mysterious cookbook written by a kitchen maid centuries ago, Beatrice and Reiko each grasp for a life of freedom--something more easily imagined than achieved in a world dominated by catastrophic corporate greed"--
