SLIP-FORM TODAY AND TOMORROW
THE LATEST SLIP-FORM PAVING DEVELOPMENTS AND TECHNIQUES ARE DISCUSSED AND ILLUSTRATED. AMONG THESE ARE THE COMPATIBILITY OF SLIP-FORM PAVERS WITH CENTRAL-MIXED CONCRETE AND THE MOST RECENT TECHNIQUE OF USING TWO SLIP- FORM PAVERS TO CONSTRUCT CONCRETE PAVEMENTS HAVING MESH DOWEL DESIGNS. NEW EQUIPMENT AND RECENT MODIFICATIONS TO CURRENT SLIP-FORM PAVERS ARE ALSO DESCRIBED IN ORDER TO PRESENT THE LATEST RESULTS OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT BY ALL SLIP-FORM MANUFACTURERS. EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS, CONTRACTORS, AND HIGHWAY ENGINEERS PREDICT THAT WITHIN A FEW YEARS SLIP-FORM PAVING WILL BE THE STANDARD METHOD OF CONCRETE PAVEMENT CONSTRUCTION. IN ONLY 15 YEARS, THE SLIP-FORM PAVER HAS PROVED ITSELF. /AUTHOR/
