From page 65...
... A similar piece of self-contained equipment (Figure 40) from Japan was reported on for cleaning PFC layers at the meeting of the International Conference on Asphalt Pavements held in Copenhagen, Denmark (65)
From page 66...
... stated that it was standard practice by Texas DOT to use seal coats over distresses open-graded surfaces. Corrective Surface Maintenance Occasionally, the PFC layers will require repair of delaminated areas and potholes.
From page 67...
... This condition consists of ice building up on the pavement surface due to rain falling on a frozen PFC layer. Finally, snow or sleet falling onto PFC layers is a concern.
From page 68...
... indicates that the performance of PFCs is slightly poorer than densegraded surfaces. Snowplows tend to push the slushy material into the void structure of PFC layers.
From page 69...
... The New Jersey DOT has found that PFC layers are more difficult to maintain ice-free than nearby dense-grade
From page 70...
... Also, the NJGSP continually monitors forecasts of temperature and measures pavement surface temperatures. The NJGSP pre-treats PFC surfaces with liquid magnesium chloride to avoid icing.
