This book was released on 1994 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been estimated that over 60 asphalt mix designs are being specified by the various local governments and design consultants in the Denver metropolitan area. As material batches are ordered for delivery to these various agencies, the producers are required to constantly change their mixing formulations and plant operations. This constantly changing process results in inefficiencies in production time and cost to the buyer, as well as variability in the process. The problem is intensified when towns and communities order small amounts of material for a local street project. In March, 1994 a Government Forum was held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association. At this forum, a decision was made to organize a Task Force to address this problem and provide recommendations for asphalt paving materials in the Denver Metropolitan area. This report presents the recommendations of that Task Force. The recommendations include gradation, asphalt cement type, additives, RAP, voids, and laboratory design properties. Four standard mixes were identified.

Book Synopsis High Performance Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements for Intersections by : Timothy Aschenbrener
Download or read book High Performance Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements for Intersections written by Timothy Aschenbrener and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A program has begun in Colorado to prove that HMA pavements can be effectively constructed at intersections and provide significant benefits to the owner. To many highway agencies, performance, construction speed, and cost are the three key issues to consider when rehabilitating or reconstructing high traffic intersections. Therefore, demonstration projects were organized by the Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association (CAPA) to demonstrate performance, construction speed and cost advantages over PCC pavements at high traffic intersections in Colorado. This paper documents the planning, design, and construction processes that were followed to successfully build an HMA pavement at an intersection carrying over 7.7 million 18 kip (8200 kg) ESALs for a 20-year design.

Book Synopsis Using Ground Tire Rubber in Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements by : Donna S. Harmelink
Download or read book Using Ground Tire Rubber in Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements written by Donna S. Harmelink and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Documents the construction and performance of the research study which was initiated to address section 1038(d) of the 1991 Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA). The project selected to demonstrate the crumb rubber process was located on Platt Canyon (SH 75) from Bowles to C470 in the Denver metropolitan area. The project was a low volume roadway and quantities of crumb rubber introduced into the mix were minimal. This was to reduce risk in terms of premature failure and Colorado's limited experience with crumb rubber. Because of this limited experience, the "dry" process was selected. The project contained four different mix designs. A mix containing 1% [20 lb/ton (10 kg/Mg)] crumb rubber, a mix containing 1 lb/ton (0.5 kg/Mg), a mix containing 3 lb/ton (1.5 kg/Mg) and a mix which contained no rubber were placed on the project.

Download or read book Determining the Degree of Aggregate Degradation After Using the NCAT Asphalt Content Tester written by Randolph Reyes and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the research conducted was to determine if aggregate degradation takes place and to measure the possible degree of degradation after bituminous mixtures are heated inside the NCAT Asphalt Content Tester. A study was conducted which compared the original aggregate blend (control specimens) to the residual aggregate blend (experimental specimens) obtained after several bituminous mixtures were heated inside the NCAT Asphalt Content Tester. The control specimens and the experimental specimens used to produce the bituminous mixtures were the result of an aggregate sample which was split three times. Two methods of analysis were used to review the gradation results.

Book Synopsis Common Performance Measures Practitioner's Guidebook by : Sarosh I. Khan
Download or read book Common Performance Measures Practitioner's Guidebook written by Sarosh I. Khan and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook presents a methodology that uses performance measures common to various transportation modes to perform simplified corridor/project analyses. Evaluation of performance across alternatives and modes is done through a series of manual worksheets by applying an approach based on five core areas including measures of mobility, agency cost, safety, user costs, and air quality. The evaluation can be limited to an analysis based on measures of effectiveness (MOE) or completed to include a measure of economic efficiency. To calculate the measures for each of the core areas, the analyst must describe the corridor or project to be analyzed, conceptualize the alternatives to be examined, collect baseline data pertinent to those alternatives and the chosen analysis framework, and aggregate the corridor into logical segments. For cases where some local data are unavailable, the guidebook includes a series of reference tables with default and average values for variables and parameters involved in the evaluation. After the MOEs under the baseline, No-build, and alternative conditions for each analysis year are summarized, the analyst can employ a multi-criteria ranking approach to select the best alternative action based on performance measures or perform an economic efficiency analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the post-construction evaluation of the fast track pavement in Sterling, Colorado. The field evaluation consisted of visual inspection, fault measurement, profile measurement and distress survey. A set of falling weight deflectometer (FWD) measurements was also acquired to assess the structural responses and to evaluate load transfer efficiency between the slabs. The results of this study demonstrated that fast track concrete can be as durable as the conventional concrete pavement. After seven years of being in service the pavement has shown no sign of fatigue, only some minor distresses unrelated to fast track techniques.

Book Synopsis Dynamic Traffic Modelling of the I-25/HOV Corridor by : Bruce N. Janson
Download or read book Dynamic Traffic Modelling of the I-25/HOV Corridor written by Bruce N. Janson and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic modelling is one means of being able to predict time-varying traffic conditions in an urban roadway network to support traveler information systems and traffic management advisories. The development and testing of DYMOD (a dynamic traffic assignment model) was implemented in the Denver metro area to predict observed volumes and speeds during a typical weekday peak period (5am - 10am). On average, predicted flows agreed to within 12% of actual 5-minute volumes on I-25 through lanes at the detector locations. DYMOD was also able to model incident conditions to generate route diversion planning strategies during lane blocking accidents and to estimate vehicle hours of delay.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrosion of reinforced concrete structures has been a significant problem for many state and transportation agencies since the application of deicing salts was introduced. Much research has been conducted to develop corrosion protection systems that can prolong the life span of reinforced concrete structures. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has several routine and experimental measures to prevent corrosion of the rebar including epoxy-coated rebar, calcium nitrite admixture, organic corrosion inhibitors, a thick cover of quality concrete, and a waterproofing membrane covered by an asphalt overlay. An extensive literature review was performed to collect information on various corrosion protection systems that have been used in the U.S. and around the world. Current CDOT practices in terms of corrosion protection measures were reviewed. A draft inspection plan for Colorado's bridge structures was proposed.
Book Synopsis Final Report on Environmentally Sensitive Sanding and Deicing Practices by :
Download or read book Final Report on Environmentally Sensitive Sanding and Deicing Practices written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growth in the Denver-metro area has led to an increased impact on the environment due to winter maintenance activities. According to the Regional Air Quality Council, the use of sand as a traction aid contributes up to 45% of the particulate air pollution (PM sub 10) in the Denver area. The Environmentally Sensitive Sanding and Deicing Practices at the University of Colorado at Denver investigated literature and current practices from a wide variety of sources to arrive at a document which summarizes the current state of knowledge about deicing practices and their effect on human health and the environment. Topics include: properties of snow and ice, roadway traction, anti-skid materials, air quality impacts of anti-skid materials, water quality impacts of deicing chemicals, deicing chemicals, equipment to apply deicers, snow and ice management practices, and current practices obtained from interviews and site visits. Topics for further research are also discussed. This report recommends that the use of sand be reduced, that sand be swept up as soon as practical, that the use of alternative deicers be considered, that winter maintenance activities be timed for optimal efficiency, and that the Colorado Department of Transportation conduct technology transfer seminars around the State to increase awareness of environmental impacts.
