Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The surface transportation system forms the biggest infrastructure investment in the United States of which the roadway pavement is an integral part. Maintaining the roadways can involve rehabilitation in the form of widening, which requires a longitudinal joint between the existing and new pavement sections to accommodate wider travel lanes, additional travel lanes or modification to shoulder widths. Several methods are utilized for the joint construction between the existing and new pavement sections including vertical, tapered and stepped joints. The objective of this research is to develop a formal recommendation for the preferred joint construction method that provides the best base layer support for the state of Wyoming. Field collection of Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) data, Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) data, base samples for gradation and moisture content were conducted on 28 existing and 4 newly constructed pavement widening projects. A survey of constructability issues on widening projects as experienced by WYDOT engineers was undertaken. Costs of each joint type were compared as well. Results of the analyses indicate that the tapered joint type showed relatively better pavement strength compared to the vertical joint type and could be the preferred joint construction method. The tapered joint type also showed significant base material savings than the vertical joint type. The vertical joint has an 18% increase in cost compared to the tapered joint. This research is intended to provide information and/or recommendation to state policy makers as to which of the base widening joint techniques (vertical, tapered, stepped) for flexible pavement provides better pavement performance.

Download or read book Partial-lane Pavement Widening written by National Research Council (U.S.). Transportation Research Board and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information from many highway departments and agencies was assembled and analysed in this effort to record and evaluate current practices in the use of partial-lane pavement widening. Specific problems on partial-lane pavement widening projects (narrow work areas, acquisition of additional right-of-way, variable subgrade, reconditioning of existing pavement, reflective cracking, structure widening, surface and subsurface drainage, traffic during construction, access for abuting owners, and funding projects) have been addressed and practices have been developmed to meet specific needs. Nearly all partial-lane widening projects include provisions for placing an overlay over both the old and new pavement. In a few cases the overlay may be placed during the following construction season. The modification of the existing surface drainage, alignment improvement (by shifting the widening, where possible, to the inside of curves; replacement of small angles by a smooth curve), minimizing reflection cracks by provision of good subsurface drainage, compaction of widening trench at or near the optimum moisture content, provision of good shoulder support, and the use of substantial overlay to cover the joint) are some practices described. The open trench hazard, and advance coordination with abutting residents and businesses to avoid inconvenience are also discussed. Safety, capacity and maintenance are important factors in planning the widening projects. Long-range and short-range plans, project selection, citizen participation and factors which affect the decision-making process are outlined. The various aspects of design and construction are covered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This design guide is designed to guide Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) engineers through the process of pavement widening and to enable TxDOT designers to make more informed and better decisions regarding pavement design and construction. These guidelines should result in better utilization of resources, reduced maintenance costs, and improved public safety. This design guide was compiled based upon the responses of a multi-district survey within TxDOT, interviews with district personnel, observations of field performance of various widening methods, and reviews of existing published guidelines and manuals relevant to flexible pavement widening.

Download or read book A Guide for Achieving Flexibility in Highway Design written by and published by AASHTO. This book was released on 2004 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context-sensitive solutions (CSS) reflect the need to consider highway projects as more than just transportation facilities. Depending on how highway projects are integrated into the community, they can have far-reaching impacts beyond their traffic or transportation function. CSS is a comprehensive process that brings stakeholders together in a positive, proactive environment to develop projects that not only meet transportation needs, but also improve or enhance the community. Achieving a flexible, context-sensitive design solution requires designers to fully understand the reasons behind the processes, design values, and design procedures that are used. This AASHTO Guide shows highway designers how to think flexibly, how to recognize the many choices and options they have, and how to arrive at the best solution for the particular situation or context. It also strives to emphasize that flexible design does not necessarily entail a fundamentally new design process, but that it can be integrated into the existing transportation culture. This publication represents a major step toward institutionalizing CSS into state transportation departments and other agencies charged with transportation project development.

Download or read book Assessing and Managing the Ecological Impacts of Paved Roads written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-01-22 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All phases of road developmentâ€"from construction and use by vehicles to maintenanceâ€"affect physical and chemical soil conditions, water flow, and air and water quality, as well as plants and animals. Roads and traffic can alter wildlife habitat, cause vehicle-related mortality, impede animal migration, and disperse nonnative pest species of plants and animals. Integrating environmental considerations into all phases of transportation is an important, evolving process. The increasing awareness of environmental issues has made road development more complex and controversial. Over the past two decades, the Federal Highway Administration and state transportation agencies have increasingly recognized the importance of the effects of transportation on the natural environment. This report provides guidance on ways to reconcile the different goals of road development and environmental conservation. It identifies the ecological effects of roads that can be evaluated in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of roads and offers several recommendations to help better understand and manage ecological impacts of paved roads.
