• Abstract:
  The focus of this project is to conduct a formal constructability review of the construction and maintenance practices with respect to seal coat projects. The project's objective is to improve state-wide seal coat quality by identifying best practices. The researchers surveyed all 25 TxDOT districts to identify those practices that consistently produce successful seal coat projects throughout the State. Preparation and implementation of a comprehensive training plan on seal coat construction practices for use throughout the State was also done. Deliverables include a draft seal coat construction and maintenance specification, a final report, and district evaluations with individualized training to permit full implementation. This report identifies the changes recommended to the existing seal coat specifications based on the findings of this study.
