Abstract:

It is well-known that longitudinal joint construction quality is critical to flexible pavement life. The maintenance activities caused by longitudinal joint deterioration's direct or indirect effects and raveling problems along the centerline paving joint of asphalt roadways have become challenging for many highway agencies. A poorly constructed joint can lead to premature deterioration of an otherwise sound pavement. Thus, improving the joint’s construction can improve density and decrease permeability. It is probably the single most crucial remedy to enhance pavement performance. A density profiling system (DPS) provides continuous, instead of limited, coverage provided by conventional joint quality evaluation methods. Statistical, probabilistic, and percent-within-limits (PWL) analysis of DPS data suggests avoiding the construction of an unconfined joint. Tapered joints, confined butt joints employing the Maryland method or otherwise, echelon paved, and unconfined butt joints with cut back can produce adequate compaction at the joint.
