Title: U.K. DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR SURFACE DRESSING
Accession Number: 00715575
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: In the United Kingdom, a design guide for surface dressings (also known as chip seals) has been developed and is now in its third edition. The input parameters can be categorized as follows: (a) traffic category; (b) hardness and condition of the existing road surface; (c) location and geometry of the site; (d) site requirements for skid resistance; and (e) seasonal and weather factors. Detailed consideration is given to the chippings and the binders that lead to the selection of a particular process for a particular application. Attention is paid to the planning of the work and to the requirements for aftercare. A computer program has been developed to assist the designer in the task, ensuring that all aspects are considered.
