CC6 Rigid Pavement Tests
• Dr. David Brill & Mr. Josh Davis will present update on CC6 testing.

HMA High Tire Pressure Tests
• Ran tests over the winter of 2010/11.• Rutting failure in the PG 64-22 mix.• Will continue testing the PG 76-22 mix
at 17 ºF higher temperature than for the PG 64-22 mix.– High temperature can only be achieved during
the summer.– Delayed because of CC6 testing.– Plan to partially groove section of heated
pavement vs unheated pavement.

Reflective Cracking Test Rig
• Goal: Develop design guidance for asphalt overlay of concrete pavements based upon full scale testing.
• AC 150/5320 - 6D purely empirical solution• AC 150/5320 – 6E FAARFIELD does not address
problem.
• Cracking of asphalt overlays is a complex problem.– Environmental temperature expansion/contraction.– Thermal induced warping– Load induced fatigue

• Instrumentation includes:– Strain gages: concrete, asphalt, and surface – LVDT’s measuring concrete movement– Thermistors
• Crack length monitored with photos.• Dr. Hao Lin of Gemini Technologies will
present data.

Alkali-Silica Reactivity Testing
• Indoor, outdoor, & control slabs.• Periodic dosing with potassium acetate solution whenever
slabs dry out; about every 6 - 8 weeks.• On–going testing of slabs continues with little visual
evidence of ASR. • Planned grooving of slabs to expose aggregate to
potassium acetate.

Planned Facility Upgrades
• Replace fiber optic data communication line – SPUs to control room.
• Add wireless access point for east end of building.
• Charging station for electric vehicles.• 200,000 lb in-ground scale to facilitate
calibration of test vehicle wheel loads.

Future NAPTF Schedule
• Continue Traffic CC6.• Finish testing on CC5 HMA sections that were
suspended due to cold weather.• Remove/reinistall HMA overlay on reflective
cracking rig.• Plan and construct CC7 on the low-strength
subgrade. Proposed testing to look at overload on flexible pavements.
• CC7 to also look at perpetual HMA pavements.

Future NAPTF Schedule (continued)
• Repave the HTP pavement with warm-mix asphalt in conjunction with CC7 HMA construction.
• CC8 concrete pavement test planning beginning. Joint design – load transfer of dowels for thick
slabs on moderate strength subgrades. Joint design – sinusoidal keyways vs. dowels. As-built slab strength vs. predicted slab strength. Slab aspect ratios.
