The report deals with the effectiveness of 'Reclamite' when used as a sealant and compare it with the material now in use (catonic emulsfied asphalt-RS-3K). The evaluation was limited to reflection cracks developed in HMAC pavements placed on PCC pavements or Portland Cement stabilized bases. The results indicated that neither sealant was satisfactory for use and that further studies should be made to evaluate other materials. This study noted that at two specific locations, the joints were 78% sealed with foreign matter. It was recommended that observations continue on these untreated sections to determine the effects of not sealing and if sealing is even necessary or desirable. (Author)
