Comments:We are soliciting new partners for experiment no. 16 titled "Accelerated Pavement Testing of Low-Volume Roads with Geocell Reinforcement". This experiment will apply 500,000 passes of an 18-kip single axle load (dual tire) to four test sections. Test sections will be constructed using crushed limestone (AB-3), quarry waste (limestone screenings)and recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) as in-fill material. Control section will be 12-inch crushed limestone (AB-3). A 2-inch Superpave 12.5A hot mix asphalt overlay will be placed over all sections. Cost of experiment is $286,000. We are requesting commitments of approximately $60,000 each from four additional partners to fund this experiment.
