Description:The crack and seat (C & S) method of rehabilitating concrete pavements has been proposed to reduce the incidence of reflective cracking in asphalt overlays. These cracked pieces help reduce the thermal effects on lateral joint movement while the seating of slab pieces reduces vertical movement. This 1986 project demonstrated that a 0.6 m x 0.9 m (2 ft x 3 ft) cracking pattern was optimal to retard reflective cracking in an asphalt overlay. The best performance among three C & S test sections was section 4 with a 0.6 m x 0.9 m (2 ft x 3 ft) cracking pattern and 7.6 cm (3 in) overlay. Structural ratings determined from the Road Rater indicated little difference between each C & S section with varying AC thicknesses and crack spacings. Although reflection cracking is reduced in the early years after construction, the effectiveness of the C & S method diminishes over time.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
