ASPHALT PLUG JOINT USAGE AND PERCEPTIONS IN THE UNITED STATES

The University of Wyoming is developing design guidelines for asphalt plug joint use and application under the sponsorship and guidance of the Wyoming and Colorado departments of transportation. As a first step in this research a survey of 50 state departments of transportation was conducted to assess use, perceptions, and installation guidelines. Fifty states responded. The survey results are presented and the trends are summarized.
