Partial Depth Repair Patch Area Primed for TechCrete
Crafco Product TechCrete Repair area after removal and sandblasting
Conventional Diamond Grinding • Cuts a 10’ – 14’ Flat Surface • From wheels behind the grinding head • To the front wheels
Diamond Grinding Some asphalt was left in localized low areas
Ride Quality Data • 2007 IRI (microsurfacing) = 160.94 in/mi • IRI (after asphalt milling) = 222.80 in/mi • IRI final (after CPR and diamond grinding) = 112.00 inches/mile
Project Costs Polyurethane Slab Stabilization: $4.32 /pound for 150,000 pounds ($648,000) Pre-Cast Panels: $472.89/s.y. for 4,900 s.y. ($2,317,161) Synthetic resin Partial-Depth Repairs: $1,113.95/s.y. for 490 s.y. ($545,835.50) Diamond Grinding: $7.63 s.y. for 266,750 s.y. ($1,963,280)
Another Example of “Buried Treasure”:Washington SR 522 • 2002 WashDOT rehab project • Old overlays and asphalt patches removed • Full-depth PCC repairs of damaged concrete • Replaced widened asphalt lanes with full-depth concrete lanes • Diamond ground entire surface • Provided final surface texture • Pavement still performing well today
Summary • Innovative, cost-effective pavement maintenance and repair solutions are needed in today’s financially challenging times. • Many concrete pavements “buried” under asphalt can be restored cost-effectively. • The RAP removed from overlaid PCCP has value and can help reduce project costs.
