Construction of Rehabilitation Test Sections on US 59 in the Lufkin District
The overall objective of the study is to develop a rehabilitation plan for US 59 in the Lufkin District. The rehabilitation plan covers a relatively long time period and includes numerous performance periods. The report describes the construction and cost of the test sections built as part of the project. Seven of the test sections were constructed on rigid jointed concrete pavement (constructed in the 1940s) that had previously been overlaid with asphalt concrete pavement (ACP). The remaining seven test sections were cnstructed on a flexible pavement structure (constructed in the mid-1960s) that had been overlaid several times since initial construction. Rehabilitation design strategies included removal of old ACP, the application of new base material, joint and crack repair, crack and seating, and the use of differently sized aggregates in the ACP materials. Because the cost of these strategies ranges from approximately $4.78/m2 ($4.00/yd2) to $39.47/m2 ($33.00/yd2), this initial cost and construction information will be essential in evaluating long-term performance.
