Evaluation of Steel Paving Mesh.

摘要

The purpose of the Steel Paving Mesh is to prevent reflective cracks in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) overlays on distressed Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) or Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) Pavements. This report covers the constructability evaluation of steel paving mesh. Steel Paving Mesh is a woven wire mesh material that resembles a gabion basket. The material is placed on a distressed concrete pavement, a micro-surfacing paving course is then applied, and a 3-inch minimum depth HMA overlay is placed.
