SALVAGING RIGID PAVEMENT IN GEORGIA

THIS PAPER DESCRIBES THE METHODS OF SALVAGING RIGID PAVEMENTS IN GEORGIA. THE USE OF THE PAVEMENT BREAKERS FOR SEATING ROCKING SLABS AND REMOVAL OF EXTREMELY BROKEN-UP PAVEMENT AND REPLACING WITH PREMIXED SOIL-BOUND MACADAM PORTLAND CEMENT-STABILIZED BASE COURSE MIXTURE ARE DESCRIBED.
