The purpose of this report is to identify the difference, if any, in AASHTO and OSHD test procedures and results. This report addresses the effect of the size of samples taken in the field and evaluates the methods of determining the moisture content of asphalt concrete mixtures in the determination of asphalt content and gradation.

In November 1980, a contractor requested permission to use a 1.5 inch thick Latex Modified Fibrous Concrete (LMFC) overlay in lieu of a 2.5 inch low slump concrete (Iowa System) or a 2.5 inch unreinforced latex modified concrete. The overlays were to be on four bridge decks within the Sundail-Sandy River Section. The Latex Modified Fibrous Concrete

The performance of the stress absorbing membrane innerlayer was evaluated between 1977 and 1982. Benkelman Beam deflections were measured, cores taken at selected crack locations to determine their origin, and visual inspections wre made to check for rutting, raveling, and cracking. The evaluation noted the start of transverse cracking two years af

The application of chloride deicing salts to roadways has increased dramatically in recent years due to public demand for safer winter driving conditions. Unfortunately, these salts create adverse effects such as corrosion of vehicles and bridge structures. More recently, adverse environmental effects have been attributed to road salt applications.

The intrusion of salt-laden moisture into concrete bridge members has caused considerable damage to bridges along the Oregon coast. The increasing chloride ion content of the concrete fosters a galvanic corrosion cell. This results in the rapid corrosion of the reinforcing steel and the spalling of the concrete. To prevent the intrusion of chloride

Verglimit is the name for a multi-component anti-icing flake which is added to an asphalt concrete wearing surface. As tires travel over the road, a chemical is released continuously and retards the formation of ice and snow on the road's surface.
