This book was released on 1975 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of efforts in Virginia to reduce the incidence of reflection cracking when portland cement concrete pavements or bases are overlayed with asphaltic concrete are reported. The methods of reflection crack reduction discussed are: (1) The use of sand as a bond breaker between portland cement concrete pavements and asphaltic overlays, (2) the use of a high tensile strength fabric as a stress relieving layer between two asphaltic concrete overlays of an old portland cement concrete pavement on a weak subbase, and (3) the use of two types of fabric as stress relieving layers between asphaltic layers and a concrete base on a very strong subbase and subgrade. The following conclusions were drawn. 1. Neither sand as a bond breaker nor high strength fabrics as stress relieving layers are effective in reducing reflection cracking where vertical joint movement (differential deflection) is a significant factor. 2. When differential deflections are greater than about 0.002 in (0.05 mm) reflection cracks form early. Such cracking is delayed for lower differential deflection but may occur as the magnitude and frequency of wheel loadings increase. 3. Both an asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric and an unwoven, spun-bonded nylon fabric, when placed to span joints in portland cement concrete base and covered with an asphaltic concrete, overlay, are able to sustain the formation of reflection cracking in the overlaying layer without undergoing damage. 4. An asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric spanning the joints in portland cement concrete pavements, and placed between the pavement and an asphaltic overlay, may be effective in reducing the infiltration of surface water to pavement sub-layers. There is some evidence that pavement pumping may be reduced by this method. 5. Both an asphalt impregnated polypropylene fabric and an unwoven, spun-bonded nylon fabric can delay the formation of reflection cracking. There is strong evidence, however, that such cracking is fatigue in nature and will eventually develop under the application of repetitive wheel loadings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflective cracking in asphalt pavement is a problem that is rampant in the construction industry. It involves cracks or breaks in the underlying layers of the asphalt pavement because of movements experienced due to an original crack. Due to the continuous movement of existing asphalt pavements, discontinuities like joints and cracks spread through the pavement leading to reflection cracking. It becomes a challenging issue that troubles many engineers particularly those who work in the road maintenance and rehabilitation industry. Research into the problem can reveal important ways that the problem can be dealt with to offer a solution to an issue that has remained troublesome for many years. The need for rehabilitation methodologies that will improve the performance of asphalt pavements continues to grow create the need for a detailed review of existing treatment methods that can reduce the incidences of reflective cracking. This research summarized the current published literature until 2022 and identified the methods used in some states on how they deal with the reflective cracking problem that facing the roads. A Questionnaire survey consisting of several important points was created and sent to transportation agencies (departments of transportation) (DOTs) in all of the fifty states in the U.S. Replies from 20 states were and carefully investigated for figuring out the details related to the reflective cracking and remedies. The most prominent of these points were about whether the state faces this problem in their roads. Some of the questions asked where to inquire the details of how the DOTs determine the crack, the time for the first crack to appear and beginning to become a serious issue threatening the roads. The questionnaire also include the prevention as well as the treatment methods for solving the reflective cracking problem. The goal of this survey is to compare how each state DOTs deal with the reflective cracking issue and to benefit from the DOTs experience to find the most appropriate way to prevent and treat the reflective cracking keeping in view to achieve a good quality of the pavements and reduction in the cost of repair and maintenance for the best economic factor.

This book was released on 1972 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report encompasses the results of a literature search, a survey of state highway departments, and an on-site field inspection of techniques used by state and federal agencies to control reflection cracking in asphaltic concrete overlays principally on portland cement concrete pavements. Procedures were generally for the purpose of isolating the overlay from the effect of movement in the underlying pavement or reinforcing the overlay. These procedures are made more effective by measures designed to prevent or minimize the underlying pavement movement. The methods found helpful in reducing reflection cracking include wire mesh reinforcement in the asphaltic concrete (AC) overlay; use of bond-breakers between the portland cement concrete (PCC) and the AC overlay; addition of an aggregate base course over the PCC followed by an AC overlay; pretreatment of the old PCC, such as mudjacking, subsealing, or cracking the old pavement by heavy rolling or with a hydraulic or pneumatic hammer; use of additives and other modifications in the AC composition. Many of the test installations inspected are 3 to 13 years old and in good to excellent condition. Normally, when using regular AC overlay procedures, reflection cracking begins to show up within 1 year or season cycle and cracks are larger than when special techniques are used. Results of the study indicate that there is no known 100% effective method for eliminating reflection cracking. Overall, a number of techniques have substantially delayed serious transverse reflection cracking, appear to have reduced longitudinal reflection cracking at pavement widening joints, and have reduced maintenance considerably.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflection cracks are caused by discontinuities (cracks or joints) in underlying layers, which propagate through a hot-mix asphalt (HMA) overlay due to continuous movement at the crack prompted by thermal and traffic loading. If the new overlay is bonded to the distressed layer, cracks in the existing pavement usually propagate to the surface within one to five years and even as early as few months have been reported. Excessive seasonal temperature variations and movements of a cement-treated base layer may also result in shrinkage cracking, which extends to the pavement surface to cause reflection block cracks. Reflection cracking leads to premature failure of overlays by allowing water infiltration through the cracks, which cause stripping in HMA layers and weakening and deterioration of the base and/or subgrade. Since the early 1930s, considerable resources and efforts have been spent to find new and relatively inexpensive techniques to delay reflection cracking. Different methods, including the use of interlayer systems (e.g., glassgrid, stress absorbing membranes, paving fabrics, etc.) and rubblization, have been suggested for enhancing pavement resistance to reflective cracking. Experimental investigations of these crack control treatments indicate that their performances have been mixed and cannot be considered conclusive. Louisiana has experience with various techniques and treatments to control reflection cracking since the 1970s; however, the cost-effectiveness and performance of these methods have not been reliably evaluated. In addition, scientific evaluation and testing of these treatment methods was not performed on many projects. To ensure successful control of this distress and effective allocation of maintenance funds, there is a critical need to assess the performance of pavement sections across the state built with various treatment methods and to determine the most cost-effective techniques to delay or to prevent reflection cracking in composite pavements.

Book excerpt: Many techniques have been used in an attempt to prevent reflection cracking in asphalt overlays including stress relieving membranes, fabrics, bond breakers, and changes in mix design. Glass fiber reinforcements have been used in the plastics industry for increasing the fatigue life and fracture toughness of plastic products for many years. This paper describes the successful development of the use of glass fiber reinforcement in conjunction with an asphalt polymer to minimize reflection cracks in an asphalt overlay. The system is also used to reduce excavation of deteriorated cracks and joints before overlaying.
