Abstract:

The sealing and filling of cracks in highway pavement are maintenance activities that are routinely performed throughout the world to extend the time between major rehabilitations. These activities are extremely labor intensive, tedious, dangerous, slow, and costly. Accordingly, the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) has supported the H-107A project to develop machinery to perform these tasks in an automated manner. As of the date of this workshop, the two and one-half year project is approximately half over. This workshop presentation reports on the progress to date, including discussions of the development plan, the overall machine architecture with its seven primary subsystems, how the machine will address pavement cracks, and design aspects and status of the seven subsystems.
