DENSE-GRADED, HOT-MIXED SURFACES - ABRIDGMENT

THIS UPDATES INFORMATION PRESENTED IN HIGHWAY RESEARCH RECORD 173 REGARDING A COMPARISON OF YIELD AND COST OF APPLICATION OF HALF-INCH BITUMINOUS CONCRETE SURFACES ON ASPHALT PAVEMENT AND ON OLD CONCRETE PAVEMENT. PERFECT DIX SEAL, RUBBERIZED SAND ASPHALT, NEW JERSEY SP-1 MIX, EMULSION HOT MIX, AND MARYLAND SMOOTH SEAL WERE COMPARED AS TO MIXING, APPLICATION, AND PERFORMANCE. IRREGULARITIES THAT OCCURRED FOR EACH MIX WERE RECORDED. IT WAS RECORDED THAT DENSE-GRADED, HALF-INCH SURFACES PROVIDE A SMOOTH, QUIET RIDING SURFACE; PROTECT OLD, SPALLED, AND CRACKED CONCRETE SURFACES; AND CAN BE USED INSTEAD OF LIQUID SEAL ON ASPHALT PAVEMENT. /ARTICLE/
