Book Synopsis Synthesis of Optimal Usage of Available Aggregates in Highway Construction and Maintenance by : Benjamin William Skidmore
Download or read book Synthesis of Optimal Usage of Available Aggregates in Highway Construction and Maintenance written by Benjamin William Skidmore and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The optimization of available aggregates for highway construction and maintenance is vital both from an economic and environmental perspective. By not optimizing the aggregate supply, project costs escalate as a simple response to supply and demand. Just as important is the fact that aggregate is a natural resource and a limited one; it is crucial that it is used as efficiently as possible. This study examined specifically the use of aggregates by the South Carolina Department of Transportation, but can easily be adapted to any state. Through DOT surveys and an examination of aggregate gradation specifications, it was determined what specific sieve sizes were significantly different than other states. These specific sizes were then examined to determine if an adjustment of the specifications could better utilize the available aggregates. It was found that times of high construction greatly affect the balance of aggregates, but also that gradation specifications could be adjusted to better use the available aggregate sizes. In South Carolina, hot mix asphalt pavements are the primary causes of over and under utilization of certain aggregate sizes. The 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch aggregate sizes have been the most over utilized, and these sizes have a relatively tighter specification than other states. Based on the findings of this study, several recommendations have been made. It is recommended to further research the performance of possibly wider specification bands that will utilize some of the more available aggregates in the state. In addition, it is recommended to investigate the use of the maximum dust to binder ratio as well as the possibility of a base substitution, which could possibly better utilize the graded aggregate base materials such as crusher run. As long as performance and cost can be maintained, these changes could possibly better optimize the usage of the available aggregates in construction and maintenance. Finally, it is recommended that the SCDOT consider methods to forecast future aggregate needs and communicate this with the suppliers, who can then be better prepared to meet the demand.

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.

Download or read book Promising Replacements for Conventional Aggregates for Highway Use written by Charles R. Marek and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the current status of availability of acceptable aggregates for highway construction, and notes areas where shortages now exist or can be expected to occur in the forseeable future. Various possible ways for alleviating shortages, including techniques for benefiting existing low-quality natural aggregates, and processes for manufacturing synthetic aggregates from various source materials, including waste materials, are suggested. The research effort was confined to a workshop-conference and a supplemental literature study that provided a good overview of the aggregate situation, both present and future. 14 principal areas for research were identified in the study.
