A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This synthesis report will be of interest to construction, maintenance, pavement design, and materials engineers, pavement contractors, and others interested in the use of Open-graded friction course (OGFC) mixes which is a permeable surface asphalt mixture intended to enhance surface friction, particularly in wet weather. The report describes the current state of the practice on the use of OGFC mixes. This includes information regarding design, materials, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation strategies. Alternative treatments to traditional OGFC are also identified and discussed. Information for the synthesis was collected by surveying U.S. and Canadian transportation agencies and by conducting a literature search to gather further information on North American and European practices.
