Concrete Pavement Repair Manuals of Practice


Book Description

This publication includes two pavement maintenance manuals intended for use by highway maintenance agencies and contracted maintenance firms in the field and in the office. Each is a compendium of good practices for Portland cement concrete joint resealing and partial-depth spall repair, respectively, and stem from two Strategic Highway Research Program studies. The first manual covers the need for joint resealing, the planning and design, construction, and evaluation of joint seal performance. The second manual gives a description of procedures and materials recommended for partial-depth spall repair in jointed Portland cement concrete pavements. The manual covers the details of planning and design, construction, and evaluation of performance.




Gravel Roads


Book Description

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.
