Evaluation Of Traffic Paint In 1952, A. C. Peed Jr.

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Following the program of in-service transverse stripe evaluation coupled with laboratory study of traffic paint samples submitted by various manufacturers who propose to bid on the Departments paint requirements, field stripes were placed August 19, 1952. For this test stripes were placed in the same general location as that used the two previous years (U.S. 27 south of Lexington at the junction of the concrete and bituminous pavements). Gradings contained herein were made December 27, 1952, and thus represent a somewhat premature five-month evaluation. However, the set of stripes placed in 1951 were scrutinized since they had sixteen months of …

A Limestone-Calcium Chloride Stabilized Base, William B. Drake

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This report is mainly concerned with the calcium-chloride stabilized portion of a combination base. A 4-inch course of waterbound macadam was placed over a 1-inch insulation course overlying an existing traffic-bound stone surface. The next 4 inches of base above, the water bound material consisted of two 2-inch layers of calcium-chloride stabilized limestone of a design not used heretofore by the Department.

Bituminous concrete binder and surface courses laid over the base brought the total mat thickness to more than 11 inches. The surface width was 30 feet, and the length of the project was 1.1 miles.

Although the road …

Head Determinations For Structures On U.S 23 That Are Affected By Raising The Normal Pool Elevation Of Ohio River Lock And Dam No. 30 At Greenup, Kentucky, Eugene M. West

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

During a visit to this office on July 3, 1952, Mr. J.O. Cornell requested the assistance of the Hydraulics Section of the Research Laboratory in investigating the possible head to be expected on the drainage structures on U.S. 23, that would be influenced by the proposed raising of the normal pool elevation of Ohio River Lock and Dam No. 30 at Greenup, Kentucky.

In order to better evaluate the head to be expected, I have approached the problem from an analytical standpoint, outlining and comparing the results from three suggested methods. The results of the analysis of the three separate …

Corrosion Of Highway Structures By Acid-Bearing Drainage Water In Hopkins County, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

Pursuant to your conversation with Mr. Hopgood concerning the above matter, Mr. Peed and I contacted Mr. Charlie Rogers, Resident Engineer, Madisonville, and made an inspection of the locations in question. In specific connection with this, you will recall from our Progress Report No. 1 on "A Survey of Acidity in Drainage Waters and the Condition of Highway Drainage Installations" that the acid conditions in Hopkins County were rated as extremely severe, if not the most critical in the state. It was, in part, due to the prevailing severity there that led to the selection of a location at Mortons …

Proposed Special Specification For Reflectorizing Glass Spheres, James H. Havens

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

In response to your request for a specification that will apply to glass beads for reflectorizing surfaces of signs, paints, and other night driving aids, we recommend the attached material which is drawn up in the form of a proposed specification. In general, the procedures. and ranges of performance characteristics conform with things that have been discussed by the A.S.T.M. Subcommittee on Traffic Paints. Actually, A.S.T.M. has not adopted a specification, but probably they will have one within the next year or two.

You will note the refractive index and size distribution or gradation are referred to in the specification, …

Field Trip To Daviess And Henderson Counties For Inspection Of Gravel-Bituminous Roads, Ellis G. Williams

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

This series of inspections started April 28, with inspection of pavements containing gravel located in Daviess County. It was found that most pavements containing this aggregate has been resurfaced last year using a crushed limestone aggregate. There were, however, three hot-mix and one road-mix pavements remaining.

A Study Of Runoff From Small Drainage Areas And The Openings In Attendant Drainage Structures, Eugene M. West, J. O. Cornell

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

In 1926, John T. Lynch read to the Kentucky Academy of Sciences a paper entitled, "The Relation Between Drainage Area and Waterway Required for Culverts and Small Bridges in Kentucky." The paper was based on a study of many small drainage structures then existing in the highway system, and a general evaluation of the performance of the structures in relation to rainfall and runoff from contributing watersheds.

As a result of this report, and in accordance with the suggestions contained in it, the Department of Highways adopted a system of runoff coefficients applicable to different sections of the state and …

A Test Road For The Evaluation Of Sandstone As An Aggregate In Plant-Mix Bituminous Pavements, Ellis G. Williams

Kentucky Transportation Center Research Report

In eastern Kentucky, deep deposits of sandstones and shales overlie the vast deposits of limestones that prevail throughout the central part of the state. Whereas locally available limestones of high quality comprise the major sources of crushed stone or aggregate for highway paving in the central part of the state, some areas of eastern Kentucky are so far removed from sources of these and other high-type aggregates that transportation of materials becomes a major cost item. It is a matter of record that these costs frequently approach or even exceed the cost of the material at the source, Since aggregate …
