Life-cycle cost analysis of SMA pavements and SMA application guidelines
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2006-08)
The objective of this research project was to provide a comparative cost analysis of pavements constructed using stone matrix asphalt (SMA) mixtures versus those built with Wisconsin Department of Transportation's (WisDOT?s) ...
Guidelines for the surface preparation/rehabilitation of existing concrete and asphaltic pavements prior to an asphaltic concrete overlay
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2005-07)
A large percentage of the asphaltic paving projects performed in Wisconsin are asphaltic overlays of existing concrete or asphaltic pavements. Due to varying performance of overlay, a standard set of guidelines is needed ...
Effects of heavy loading on Wisconsin's concrete pavements
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2005-05)
Wisconsin DOT District 7 filed a Report of Early Distress for a 6.5-mile stretch of USH 8 and an 8-mile stretch of USH 51 near Rhinelander in 2001. An investigation of the causes for the premature failures concluded that ...
Performance evaluation of open graded base course with doweled and non-doweled transverse joints on USH 18/151, STH 29, and USH 151
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2010-09)
The objectives of this study were to investigate the performance of 20-year old doweled/non-doweled and dense-graded/permeable base test sections on three concrete pavement segments in Wisconsin: USH 18/151 in Iowa and ...
Research and development of the application of the Federal Highway Administration's HIPERPAV model to Wisconsin
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2006-04)
This report summarizes the work involved in customizing the HIgh PERformance PAVing (HIPERPAV)? software for the state of Wisconsin. Under this research project, HIPERPAV was customized to use the same terminology and ...
Performance of shoulders adjacent to concrete pavements: final report to the Wisconsin Highway Research Program
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2003-07)
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) maintenance staff in both the Districts
and Central Office discussed the less-than-optimum performance of the current asphalt shoulder
design and standard being constructed ...
Wet pavements crash study of longitudinal and transverse tined PCC pavements
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2007-06)
This report provides crash statistics for Longitudinally Tined (LT) Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) and Transversely Tined (TT) PCC pavement surfaces. The statistics were compiled for urban and rural freeways, classified ...
Early opening of Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements to traffic
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2005-09)
This report presents the results of a detailed stress analysis and a field and laboratory test program which investigated the early-age strength gain for selected portland cement concrete (PCC) paving mixtures used in ...
Guidelines for improving full-depth repair of PCC pavements in Wisconsin
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2008-03)
This document presents recommendations for improving full-depth repair of portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements in Wisconsin. It is not intended to be used as a standard by itself, but rather as a supplement to current ...
Analysis of concrete pavement joints to predict the onset of distress
(Wisconsin Highway Research Program, 2007-10)
This report documents the investigation of a 15-mile segment of doweled plain jointed concrete pavement located on Interstate 90/94 in Juneau and Sauk Counties in the State of Wisconsin. This section has experienced a ...
