• Abstract:
  The primary objective of this evaluation is to determine the effectiveness of the Joint Maker and Precompaction ; Screed, both developed by TransTech Systems, Inc., in achieving higher and more uniform density across the mat of ; a rehabilitated Hot Mix Asphalt pavement by increasing the density in the problem areas. The problem areas consist ; of the rutted areas and the longitudinal joint edges. TransTech Systems, Inc. has developed these two attachments ; for the benefit of doing a single rehabilitation overlay without requiring preparatory work to the problem areas. The ; major advantage would be derived from not having to cold mill or preliminarily level the existing rutted areas prior ; to the surface overlay. This would ultimately reduce project costs.
