Crack-Reduction, Pavement-Reinforcement, Glasgrid

摘要

The main objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a reflective crack reducing method. To do this, two locations were selected for evaluation. The first location was located on I-70, west of the Eisenhower Memorial Tunnel. On the project, the section containing Glasgrid, a type of reflective cracking treatment, was evaluated and compared to an equivalent section containing the material (Trevira Spunbond) that was initially selected by the contractor. Both the Glasgrid and Trevira Spunbond test sections were compared to an untreated section. The second location was on U.S. 40, east of Hayden.
