Evaluation of Tire Chips for Highway Drainage Applications
A study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using tire chips as a drainage material in roadway construction. Laboratory tests were performed to determine tire chip properties including particle size distribution, compressibility, compacted density, permeability, and the potential effects of tire chips on water quality. A field project was constructed during the summer of 2002 on interstate-90, east of Gillette, Wyoming. This project incorporated two sections of roadway with drainage blankets comprised of compacted tire chips.
