Comparison of Repair Methods for Rutting Caused by Horse and Buggy
The research project evaluated repair methods for rutting caused by horse and buggy traffic. The problem is the result of the chiselling action of the carbide tipped horseshoes commonly used in many Amish communities in Pennsylvania. The evaluation included four methods of repair. Three test sections were established on Traffic Route (T.R.) 340 near Bird in Hand, PA. These sections involved the performance of an ID-2 special blend, Ralumac Latex Modified Bituminous Emulsion Mixture, and FJ-1 wearing course with 100% steel slag aggregate. The final test section, located on T.R. 741, was an ID-2 fine binder mix. The research incorporated the evaluation of the performance of the repair materials, as well as the cost and benefits of the construction methods. The experimental test sections were monitored over a period of approximately five years. Results of the evaluation indicate that the use of an ID-2 mix is the most effective method to repair ruts and prevent extensive rerutting. One successfull treatment involved milling the ruts and placing ID-2 wearing in the milled area. A second treatment involved the placement of full-width ID-2 binder and wearing courses.
