Bridge Resurfacing With Silica Sand-Asphalt Mixture, Loren H. Strunk

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The bituminous section has been engaged in testing silica sand-asphalt mixtures composed of various penetration grades of asphalt and sands from sand and sandstone deposits from several different areas of the state since early this year. The purpose of this study was to develop a surfacing mixture which would provide a skid-resistant surface and which could be machine laid in thin courses.

Skid Prevention Studies In Kentucky, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Laboratory apparatus, consisting essentially of a torque generator and a torque meter, in which a rubber annulus is driven against a plane surface of a rock core or pavement specimen, as in an ordinary friction clutch, was used to study variations in the coefficients of friction with respect to texture and material characteristics. Dry friction coefficients were found to be rather high in magnitude. and fairly constant throughout wide variations in surface textures. In contrast, wet friction coefficients were very high for rough textures but very low for polished surfaces. Wet friction values correlated in an approximately hyperbolic manner with …

Differential Thermal Analysis Of The Freeze-Thaw Mechanisms In Concrete, James H. Havens, Knox R. Burchett

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The freezing of water in concrete may create highly disruptive internal forces, depending upon the degree of saturation of the voids and the extent of the resulting dilations. Heretofore, it has not been possible to measure the internal pressures accompanying freezing; and it is this aspect of the automatic freeze-thaw testing of concrete with which the present study was concerned. By the use of thermocouples, imbedded in concrete and referenced to an ice-water bath, it was possible to plot, on an automatic multivolt potentiometer recorder, an isothermal phase change for the absorbed water, and to demonstrate a depression of the …

Recommendations For Special Specifications, Covering Basic Lead Silico-Chromate, Oil-Alkyd, Vinyl-Alkyd Paints For Bridges, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This specification covers the material requirements for a Basic Lead Silico-Chromate, Oil-Alkyd Paint System intended for use on exterior iron and steel structures (bridges), for either new or re-paint work, except where exposed to severely corrosive conditions such as within the splash-zone from bridge decks or on other members likely to be affected by de-icing salts or persistent moisture conditions. This system shall consist of a primer-, intermediate-, and finish-coat paint as hereafter specified. Uses of the component paints other than as an integral part of this system are specifically excluded.

An Evaluation And Summary Of The 16-Year Performance Of A Concrete Test Pavement, Milton Evans Jr.

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Presented herein are a summary and evaluation of the performance of a reinforced concrete section of U.S. 27 in north central Kentucky which has been in existence since the summer of 1941. The pavement, totaling 7.89 miles, was constructed in 10 experimental test sections, as shown on the layout map in Figure 1. Five blends of cement, containing normal portland, natural, and two additives, were used with two types of coarse aggregate, limestone and gravel. Since the construction of the pavement in the summer of 1941, several reports and memoranda have been released dealing with various aspects of the over-all …

A Study Of The Use Of A Local Fly Ash In Concrete Mixes, Frank D. Whitney

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The widespread use of powdered coal in industrial furnaces has, since its introduction in the 1930's, produced considerable increases in efficiency for many industrial processes. In its wake, however, it has brought its own unique problems, and chief among these has been the problem of collecting and disposing of the residue which results from the combustion of the powdered or ground coal. This residue, known commonly as fly ash, is a nuisance if it is allowed to be dispersed into the atmosphere; and if collected it presents a difficult disposal problem. In present industrial practice it is almost always collected, …

A Study Of Lime And Fly Ash With Regard To Soil Stabilization, James F. Hardymon

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The paving of roadways originally developed from the inadequacy of natural soils to support vehicles and pedestrian traffic. Thus a pavement serves as a nearly rigid covering which distributes otherwise highly concentrated surface loads over wider areas of the underlying soils, Most natural soils are deficient for direct roadway service unless such a covering is provided or unless the soil itself is solidified, concreted, or otherwise reinforced, Attempts to compensate soils for these inadequacies in order to minimize the thickness of pavement needed have developed into a specialized aspect of highway design and construction known as soil stabilization.

Comparative Laboratory Evaluation And Field Observations Of A Modified Class I Base, Loren H. Strunk

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

A number of materials and methods have been used in the continuing search for a satisfactory initial bituminous treatment. Towards this end, three traffic bound roads were given initial treatment, in the summer of 1956, with three inches of Kentucky a Standard Class I Base mixture. The large size coarse aggregate -- either No. 36 or No. 48 stone -- in this mixture made the material difficult to work, however, and caused severe segregation during handling. Although a well integrated mixture of the type could have been compacted to about eight percent voids, the excessive segregation left many areas of …

An Engineering Soil Survey Of Fayette County, Kentucky, Robert C. Deen

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The need for soils data in the site selection, design, construction and maintenance of any major structure is generally appreciated by the engineer. The "rule of thumb" methods often used in developing smaller structures can prove unsatisfactory, or even disastrous, when applied to larger projects.

A Study Of The Polishing Characteristics Of Limestone And Sandstone Aggregates In Regard To Pavement Slipperiness, William J. Stutzenberger, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The coefficient of friction on dry highway surfaces regardless of stone composition and texture has in most cases been at least 0.6 or above. However, some of these same surfaces when lubricated by a small amount of water have given test results dangerously lower. Some interesting theoretical aspects of this situation are presented here along with results from a laboratory study of the fundamental factors affecting tractive friction.

A machine is described for measuring the coefficient of friction between the plane surfaces of four-inch diameter stone specimens and a rubber annulus of slightly smaller diameter. Measurements were made both wet …
