Summary Of Pavement Surface Texture Measurement Methods, Kentucky Department Of Highways

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This tabular summary represents an expanded version of a draft prepared under the direction of Prof. Bob M. Gallaway of Texas A & M University. The table was compiled from a literature survey conducted during spring 1970. A survey of all states and agencies engaged in quantitative measurements of surface texture would be helpful for updating and finalizing the table. In the meantime, any comments or suggestions concerning any of the tabular entries or other methods of surface texture measurement should be addressed to Dr. J. G. Rose, Research Engineer, Division of Research, Kentucky Department of Highways, 533 South Limestone, …

Hot-Mix Coal-Tar Concrete Pavement, Donald C. Newberry Jr., Jerry G. Rose

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The principle objectives of this research were:

1. To compare the economics and performance of coal tar to asphalt cement;
2. To develop reliable coal-tar construction specifications;
3. To familiarize personnel with coal-tar construction; and
4. To implement Section 201, Subsection d and e, of the Appalachian Regional Development Act of 1965.

To accomplish these objectives, a 6.6-mile experimental section utilizing coal-tar (RT-12) concrete base and surface and 5.1-mile and 5.7-mile control sections utilizing asphalt (PAC-5) concrete base and surface were placed on relocated KY 15 in Perry, Knott, and Letcher Counties during the 1969 and 1970 construction seasons. The pavement consisted of an …

Forage Sorghum And Forage Pearl Millet Performance Lexington, Kentucky 1970, Roy E. Sigafus

Agronomy Notes

Most livestock producers, especially dairy farmers, have a need for a high quality roughage in summer when cool-season grass pastures are normally low in production. Alfalfa and clover-grass mixtures grazed rotationally, and small grain and "grass" silage or hay are common sources of summer feed . There is an increasing interest, however, in forage sorghums and forage millets for grazing or green-chop .

Effect Of Nitrogen Fertilization On Yield Of Burley Tobacco, J. L. Sims, W. O. Atkinson, Jones H. Smiley, Allen M. Wallace

Agronomy Notes

Relatively large amounts of nitrogen from fertilizers and manures commonly are used in burley tobacco production. Growers are currently estimated to apply between 150 and 400 pounds of actual N per acre. Fertilization of burley with nitrogen significantly affects the physical and chemical characteristics of cured leaf and produces changes in yield and value. On most soils, leaf yields usually are increased by applications of N fertilizer, but the amount of yield increase per unit of applied fertilizer N varies widely between soils. High rates of N applied preplant or at planting often retard early plant growth, delay maturity, and …

Experimental Installations Of Impact Attenuation Devices, Bruce S. Siria, William M. Seymour, Don L. Cornette, James L. Miller

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The expanding system of limited access, multilane highway facilities in the United States has enhanced traffic service between many varied origins and destinations. As a result, these facilities have not only reduced travel times and travel costs, but have generated additional travel by virtue of their technological splendor. The increasing dominance of multilane highways in terms of percentage of total vehicle miles travelled has produced a revolution in highway engineering philosophy. Higher design speeds, increased lane widths, lateral separation of opposing traffic streams, absence of passing restrictions, and increased traffic capacities were attributes intuitively sought. An ironic result is the …

Development Of An Electronic Means Of Weighing Vehicles In Motion, Ben W. Carr Jr., Rolands L. Rizenbergs

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

An in-stream weighing platform was designed and installed in the eastbound lane of I 64 and 75 near Lexington, Kentucky. The broken-bridge scale platform was designed with the outer edges of the two sections supported on hinges and contiguous edges supported by two 20,000-pound capacity load cells. The assembled scale measures 4'-6" x 10'-1/2" with a total weight of about 2,000 pounds.

The electronics developed for the system included digitizing circuitry which processed the load cell signals and recorded the data on digital magnetic tape. Computer processing of the field data produced tabular information on vehicle speed, axle spacing, number …

Experimental Concrete Pavement Containing Fly-Ash Admixtures [1971], James R. Philpot

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

The report enclosed is somewhat routine inasmuch as it documents a repeat of a portion of an earlier experimental project. The previous project was on Poplar Level Road; our final report was dated July 1966 (KYHPR-64-1). Special Provision No. 70 was used also on the Jefferson Freeway project. However, there was no "control section" involved in the current project. The Jefferson Freeway project was authorized by the BPR under P.P.M. 60-2 only (now PPM 20-6.3).

The most significant findings from both projects concern the water requirements the concrete containing the fly-ash admixture. Whereas laboratory tests indicated reasonable expectations of a …
