Improving Long-Term Interlayer Bond Performance by Developing Quality Control Technologies and Certification Procedures for Tack Coats

Creator:

Villarreal, Richard C., III

Abstract:

The tack coat bond is known to affect the longevity of asphalt pavements. Proper interlayer bonding prevents successive pavement layers from acting independently of one another and creating non-uniform stress and strain profiles in the pavement structure. Poor bonding between pavement layers can result in various pavement failures such as...

Developing Performance-Based Specifications to Improve the Fatigue Life of Asphalt Pavements in Oregon

Creator:

Sreedhar, Shashwath

Abstract:

Asphalt concrete fatigue cracking is recognized as a major distress mode in the U.S. The widespread nature of this distress and the data from agency Pavement Management Systems (PMS) suggest that it is an issue with asphalt mixture design and production processes and is not a problem specific to certain...

Reducing Centerline Rumble Strips Effects on Pavement Performance

Creator:

Weaver, Joshua D.

Abstract:

Centerline rumble strips (CLRS) have proven to be a cost-effective safety measure in reducing lane departure crashes. However, there are often unintended consequences associated with the installation of CLRS, particularly in rural mountainous areas or snow zones. These consequences include the accumulation of water and ice on the roadway and...
