Abstract:
As part of countermeasures to slippery roads in Japan, deicing pavement has been investigated. Deicing materials such as chloride and ground rubber were added to the pavement. Deicing pavements are under construction in various districts in Japan, but evaluation methods have yet to be established. The effectiveness of deicing pavement containing a flaked deicing material (Verglimit) consisting primarily of calcium chloride was evaluated, chiefly with a dielectric pavement freezing detector and a fixed camera. As a result, melting action and chloride solution on the pavement with deicing materials were evaluated.
