Identification of candidate zero maintenance paving materials, volume 2
Abstract
These studies are concerned with fiber reinforced concrete, polymers in concretes, sealants, ceramics, prestressed concrete, and vacuum processed concrete. These materials were compared to conventional asphalt and portland cement concrete systems on the basis of mechanical properties, ease of construction and maintenance, environmental compatibility, availability, cost, and possible uses. Many of the materials possess characteristics which could be incorporated into pavements to greatly extend the period prior to maintenance.
