Crumb Rubber Chip Seal East of Punkin Center

摘要

The project was initiated in March, 1978 to evaluate the performance of rubber-asphalt binders as chip seal materials in eastern Colorado. Documents the performance of rubber asphalt binders as chip seal materials. The test sections consisted of two rubber-asphalt binders, a rubberized cutback (RC-800, the standard chip seal at the time of construction), and a plain AC-10 chip seal. The rubber asphalt binders had performed as well as the rubberized RC-800; however, from an economic standpoint the rubberized RC-800 is recommended for use as a chip seal binder on low-volume highway.
