8 Research Objectives Develop a procedure for the selection of the optimal design for perpetual pavements in Ohio. Investigate various perpetual pavement structure alternatives through varying the thickness and material properties of pavement layers in field test sections. Use data collected at the field test sections to verify the analysis results. Evaluate typical conventional asphalt pavement designs currently used in Ohio and develop an approach to retrofit existing conventional asphalt pavements in good conditions to meet the perpetual pavement requirements

41 Test Sections 8, 9, 10, and 11 inches of AC Cement Stabilized subgrade to 18 inches Highly Modified Asphalt (HiMA) by Kraton Polymers. Tested at two temperatures: 40F and 100F Each lane subjected to 10,000 passes (9000 lb wheel load) at each temperature 41
42 APLF Test Section Data Collected Temperature Profiles Deflection Measurements Strain (Longitudinal and Transverse) Profiles ( To measure surface rutting performance) 42
43 Rut Depth vs Number of Passes ODOT has four classifications for rutting: High, medium, low and none. Rut values did not exceed low threshold of in. Temp 100 F 43
44 Endurance Limit 44
45 Stiffness Ratio Equation NCHRP Project 9 44 SR= *log(E0 ) *log(εt ) *log(n) *tanh(0.8471*rp) *log(e0 )*log(εt ) *log(e0 )*tanh(0.7154*rp) *log(εt ) *tanh(0.6574*rp) *log(n)*log(e0 ) *log(N) *log(εt ) *log(N)*tanh(0.2590*RP) Where: SR=Stiffness Ratio E0=Initial Flexural Stiffness (ksi) εt=applied Tensile Strain (με) RP=Rest Period (seconds) N=Number of Loading Cycles 45
46 Effect of Initial Flexural Stiffness (E0) As the stiffness decreases, the endurance limit increases (mix is more ductile) As the stiffness increases, the endurance limit decreases (mix is more brittle) The value of E0 is dependent on the temperature (higher temperature = lower E0 and vice versa) 46
47 Measuring Initial Flexural Stiffness (E0) Dynamic modulus (E*) was used to estimate E0. The NCHRP Design Guide assumes that the dynamic modulus is equal to the initial flexural stiffness (E0 = E*). Kansas researchers found that the dynamic modulus is about 2 times the amount of the initial flexural stiffness (E0 = E*/2). Kansas researchers also state that the frequency of the dynamic modulus that was used for comparison was 10 Hz. Both assumptions were used to compare the various endurance limits for this analysis (E0 = E* and E0 = E*/2) at a loading frequency of 10 Hz for the dynamic modulus. 47

49 Dynamic Modulus Regression Results Temperatures tested from the field had to be normalized with laboratory tested dynamic modulus temperatures using a 2nd order polynomial function for each mix that was used: E* (T)=aT 2 +bt+c Where: T = Test Temperature ( F) a, b, c = Regression Coefficients AC Base Mix Regression Coefficients a b c R 2 DEL 23 FRL HiMA AC Base (Kraton) AC Base Control

54 Conclusions 54
55 Conclusions DEL 23 All the data obtained from DEL 23 for all the loading conditions, speed, climate conditions, including worst case conditions, such as 5 mph (8 km/h) traffic under high temperature, were analyzed in conjunction with the NCHRP 9 44A endurance limit model. The 13 in thick (33 cm) or greater, constructed on a 6 in (15 cm) aggregate base and stabilized subgrade, met criteria for perpetual pavement, The 11 in (28 cm) section on the same base and subgrade did not. A pavement thickness of 15 in (38 cm) or greater, constructed on an aggregate base and compacted subgrade, also met perpetual pavement criteria. The worst case test conditions, 5 mph (8 km/h) heavy load will not produce a major discrepancy with static load. These conditions may lead to rutting in the surface course, but the rutting will be minimal in the base and stabilized subgrade due to their enhanced stiffness
56 Conclusions APLF Tests Test lanes were constructed in the Accelerated Pavement Load Facility (APLF) which further evaluated thicknesses and included the use of highpolymer content binder, or highly modified asphalt (HiMA). On the builtup sections in the indoor facility, subgrade was stabilized, moisture increase in the subgrade soil typically experienced in the field did not occur, and construction quality was very high. In the APLF, based on data collected, all sections satisfied NCHRP Project 9 44A criteria for perpetual pavement (Witczak et al, 2013). The 8 in (20 cm) thick well constructed HiMA pavement on 304 and stabilized subgrade met perpetual pavement criteria in the highly controlled environment of the APLF. Very little rutting was observed in the test pavements. Comparing HiMA with control sections there was significant improvement in rutting resistance using the high polymer asphalt
