Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lack of funding and a desire to effectively manage the pavement network has resulted in the widespread use of chip seals by local agencies in Ohio. With the 2002 Construction and Materials Specifications (CMS), the Ohio Department of Transportation's (ODOT) made major revisions to the chip seal specification to incorporate best practices applicable for pavements on the state highway system. However, the new specification may be burdensome and costly for local agencies to adopt due to lack of inspection personnel and a required level of quality which may not be necessary to achieve satisfactory performance on the local system. Many local agencies construct chip seals using local work crews and application rates based on experience, or with contractors using local specifications or older version of the ODOT specification. Consequently, success has been varied, with some excellent applications and some failures. The purpose of this research was to gain a better understanding of chip seal practices of the local agencies and identify best practices for low traffic volume roads. The goal of this research was to assess the current state of practice for chip sealing on county, township, and municipal-maintained roads. The objective was to develop a matrix of best practices for chip sealing low-volume roads in Ohio and design a study to aid in the future assessment of long-term performance creating protocols for data collection. As part of this study a literature review was completed, county and municipal engineers, and township trustees were surveyed regarding their chip seal practices, and follow-up interviews were conducted with eleven agencies. Based on the information collected a matrix of best practices for chip sealing on local roadways was developed and a study to collect long-term performance was designed. The best practices matrix identifies best practices as defined in the literature and by local agency personnel and is provided in this report. A plan and data collection software for a long term monitoring and evaluation of chip seals is also provided.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research-on-call (ROC) task was conducted to assist the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) in gaining a better understanding of slag materials that can be used as chip seal aggregates and the potential benefits and drawbacks from using these materials with chip seal treatments. An online survey was conducted in this study to gather information from state and local transportation agencies regarding the use of slag as a cover aggregate for chip seal treatments. The responses to the online survey indicated that slag is more commonly used by local transportation agencies as a cover aggregate for chip seal treatments than by state departments of transportations, with air-cooled blast furnace slag (ACBFS) being more widely used than basic oxygen furnace (BOF) or electric arc furnace (EAF) slags. Several local public agencies in northeast Ohio reported using #8 ACBFS with their chip seal treatments, even though it is more expensive than washed #8 limestone, due to its many advantages including less dust than limestone aggregates, darker surface resulting in better striping visibility and better public perception, better chip retention, improved durability and skid resistance, better resistance to polishing, and longer chip seal service life. One local public agency in northwest Ohio reported using #8 EAF slag as a cover aggregate for chip seal treatments. This agency reported being very satisfied with the performance of these chip seal treatments, but one concern that was raised regarding the use of EAF slag was the potential for vehicle/windshield damage due to the high density of this slag. A closer examination of the available slag sources in Ohio also revealed the availability of #8 BOF slag in eastern Ohio. However, this slag has not been commonly used for chip seal treatments due to its high percentages of fines. Based on the findings of this study, it was recommended to modify ODOT C&MS Item 422 (Chip Seal) to allow the use of ACBFS and EAF slag with chip seal treatments as an alternative to washed limestone or washed dolostone. Additional recommendations were provided in this study to help promote the successful implementation of chip seals with ACBFS or EAF slag by ODOT.

Book Synopsis Effectiveness of Chip Sealing and Micro Surfacing on Pavement Serviceability and Life by : Arudi Rajagopal
Download or read book Effectiveness of Chip Sealing and Micro Surfacing on Pavement Serviceability and Life written by Arudi Rajagopal and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the details of an investigation to evaluate the effectiveness of Ohio Department of Transportation's prevailing chip seal and micro surfacing practices. The investigation focused primarily on two issues namely, optimal timing of treatment placement and cost-effectiveness. Data was derived from ODOT's Pavement Management Information System and included location, limits, data of installation, and annual performance data for 225 chip seal and 214 micro surfacing projects. At the end, this study resulted in a critical review and comprehensive understanding of the chip seal and micro surfacing program in Ohio and provided the basic data needed to determine when and where such preventive maintenance treatments are appropriate form the standpoint of both economics and performance. Based on the results obtained, the following conclusions are made: 1. Chip seals are cost effective treatments. They provide maximum benefits when applied on pavements whose Pavement Condition Rating is in the range 66 to 80. Under such conditions, chip seals can extend the service life of pavements up to seven years. 2. Micro surfacing treatments on general system (2-lane state routes) are reasonably effective. The best range of prior PCR for their installation is 61 to 70. Life of micro surfacing treatments on general system is nine years. 3. Micro surfacing treatments on priority system (4-lane or more) are marginally effective. The best range of prior PCR for their installation is 61 to 70. Micro surfacing on priority system can extend the service life of treated pavements by eight years.
