A STUDY OF BITUMINOUS-COATED COR- RUGATED SHEET ME FAL, CULVER IS

BY THE DIVISION OF PHYSICAL RESEARCH, PUBLIC ROADS ADMINISTRATION

Reported by J. Y. Welborn, Associate Highway Engineer, and P. J. Serafin, Assistant Chemical Engineer

i THE CONSTRUCTION of certain sections on the Blue Ridge parkway during 1936-41, bituminous-

coated corrugated sheet metal culverts were installed for the drainage of surface water. Preliminary inspec- tion of these pipe was made by United States naval inspectors at the plants of the fabricators, at which time the erosion test was made. Samples of the pipe were then sent to the Public Roads laboratory, where the asphalt coating and galvanized metal were tested for conformity with the governing specifications.

Since these culvert pipe have been in service from 4 to 9 years it seemed advisable to determine their service behavior. This report covers the field inspection of the pipe in the fall of 1945 and laboratory analyses of the samples taken.

The types of bituminous-coated metal culverts and the sections of road on which they are used are given in table 1.

In order that the reader may distinguish between the types of culvert pipe used on the various sections and have a better understanding of the conditions found during the inspection, brief descriptions of the three general types of bituminous-coated sheet metal pipe are given below.

TYPES OF BITUMINOUS-COATED CORRUGATED SHEET METAL

CULVERT PIPE DESCRIBED

Galvanized metal pipe coated with asphalt and with an asphalt pavement.—Galvanized corrugated sheet metal pipe is uniformly coated with asphalt on the outside and the inside. One-fourth of the inside circumference, which forms the bottom of the pipe when installed, is coated with an additional thickness of asphalt such that the corrugations in the pipe are filled and a smooth pavement formed. The specifications required that the thickness of asphalt coating on the inside three- fourths of the circumference should be not less than three-hundredths inch and on the bottom quarter that the thickness should be sufficient to meet the require- ments of the erosion test.

Asbestos-bonded metal pipe coated with asphalt and with an asphalt pavement.—In the process of galvan- izing the metal sheet for use in the fabrication of this type of culvert pipe a layer of asbestos felt is rolled into the molten spelter coating on one or both sides of the sheet. In the pipe covered by this report the asbestos felt was on only one side of the sheet. On cooling, a portion of the asbestos felt becomes securely embedded in the coating, leaving a mass of fiber on the surface of the sheet. This surface is then primed with a bituminous material after which the sheets are fabricated into corrugated pipe. The asbestos-bonded surface formed the inside of the pipe inspected. As a final step in manufacture the pipe is coated with asphalt and the asphalt pavement formed as for the plain galvanized metal pipe.

It is claimed that the asbestos treatment assures permanent tight adhesion of the asphalt coating, in-

creases the resistance of the asphalt coating to frac- ture on impact, and tends to cushion pressure caused by water freezing within the pipe.

Galvanized metal pipe coated with asphalt and with a metal reinforced asphalt pavement.—Galvanized cor- rugated sheet metal is used in the fabrication of this kind of pipe. The outside of the pipe and three-fourths of the inside circumference are uniformly coated with asphalt but the remaining fourth, which forms the bottom of the pipe when installed, is paved with asphalt reinforced with metal.

In fabricating the pavement a layer of asphalt- impregnated felt is placed inside the pipe over the corrugations and over this a sheet of metal, curved to fit the circumference of the pipe, is placed. The felt and the metal plate cover approximately one-fourth of the circumference of the pipe and are the same length as each corrugated section used in fabricating the pipe. The metal reinforcing plate is galvanized sheet iron, perforated on 2-inch “centers across the width of the plate and the rows of perforations are spaced so that a row is directly over each valley of the corrugations when the plate is placed in the pipe. The plate is fastened to the pipe by rivets placed on approximately 4-inch centers across each end and one rivet on each edge near the center of the plate. The ends of sheets are lapped approximately 2 inches at each section junction. With the metal reinforcement in place each length of pipe is coated with asphalt. The hot asphalt fills the valleys of the corrugations between the layer of felt and the pipe and an additional thickness of bituminous material is deposited on the surface of the metal plate, thus forming the metal reinforced asphalt pavement. The reinforcing plate in the pipe used on the Blue Ridge parkway had a spelter coating of 0.68 ounce per square foot and was approximately 26 gage.

In November 1939 a sample of bituminous-coated corrugated sheet metal pipe with reinforced asphalt pavement was submitted from section 2V~—1 for ex- amination of the paved invert and conformity with the specifications. On examining the invert it was observed that the crests of the corrugations, where the felt made

contact, were not coated with asphalt. Also that the underside of the reinforcing plate, which was in con- tact with the felt, was not uniformly coated. Although the metal plate was perforated the space between the felt and the plate was too small to permit the hot asphalt to completely fill it.

LARGE NUMBER OF FIELD INSTALLATIONS INSPECTED

Because of the large number of culvert pipes it was not considered necessary to inspect all of them. To get a general idea of the condition of the pipes it was planned to inspect every third installation. This plan was not adhered to strictly because of inaccessi- bility of some of the outlets or because some of the culverts were filled with debris. The plan of inspection was altered in some instances to include culverts of special interest.

A separate report form was used for each culvert inspected to record data pertaining to the type and condition of the installation.

The date of installation, diameter and length of culvert pipe, gage of metal, type of end protection, and grade of the pipe invert were obtained from the records for each section of road. The soil surrounding the culvert was observed only as to its moisture con- tent. The quantity of water flowing through the pipe was noted. Since inspection was made at a relatively dry time of the year the flow was considered continuous if there was water flowing through the pipe when in- se and the flow was estimated on a comparative asis. The condition of the paved invert and of the coating

above the pavement and on the outside of the pipe was determined. Where there had been a loss of coating either in the paved invert or on the walls of the pipe, the condition of the exposed metal was observed. Drop inlets on many of the culverts made it difficult to make a thorough examination of the coating and pavement of the upper ends. Where possible, inspec- tions were made from both ends or by crawling through the pipe.

DESCRIPTIVE TERM DEFINED

The data from the inspection report for each culvert were tabulated for each project and combined for each of the three general types of bituminous-coated pipe used. The inspection data are given in tables 2, 3, 4, and 5. Explanation of the terms used in these tables is given below.

Good.—Very little or no checking, no cracking, and no apparent loss of asphalt coating.

In the asphalt pavement checking usually occurred directly over the crests of the corrugations and often extended the full width of the invert. On the inside walls above the pavement and on the outside of the pipe, checking generally had the pattern of alligator skin.

Cracked.—This term is used to describe the condition of the asphalt pavement and denotes cracks of sufficient width to permit rapid infiltration of water and silt. In some culverts cracks often exceeded one-half inch in width for the full depth of the asphalt pavement. Cracking generally occurred above the crests of the corrugations, although in some pipes there were large longitudinal cracks. In some pipes where the pave- ment was severely cracked, the infiltration of water and silt had caused a loss of adhesion between the asphalt and the metal with subsequent loosening of pieces of the pavement. age

Broken.—This term is used to describe the condition of the asphalt coating on the reinforcing plate (where used) and signifies severe cracking and breaking of the coating into small pieces.

Loss.—In the invert, loss was usually caused by pieces of the asphalt pavement first cracking and then being loosened and dislodged by flowing water.

On the inside walls above the pavement, loss appeared to be due to either erosion, impact, or stripping of the coating from the metal by the action of water. Adhesion.—Adhesion of the asphalt to the metal was

not determined accurately but a comparative indication was obtained by noting the ease with which the coating could be removed with a putty knife. Flow.—In some culverts a displacement of the

asphalt coating by flow was noted. This condition occurred at the top of the pipe and was in. the form of strings of asphalt hanging from the crests of the corrugations. Flow is illustrated in figure 1, which shows the coating cut from the corrugations, reas- sembled, and photographed.

In the two types of pipes where the pavement con- sisted wholly of asphalt, the most deterioration of the

pavement and coating on the inside walls was found to be at the outlet end of the culverts which was more exposed to sunlight and changes in temperature. The condition of the invert, inside and outside coating, and exposed metal given in tables 2, 3, and 4 are for the outlet end except where otherwise indicated. In the culvert pipe with the reinforced asphalt pavement the deterioration of the asphalt coating and metal in the invert was, in general, more uniform throughout the entire length of the pipe. Therefore, these conditions as shown in table 5 apply to the full length of the culvert pipe.

PLAIN ASPHALT-COATED PIPE

Section 2M-1.—At the time of the inspection the asphalt coating and pavement were considered to be giving adequate protection. No culvert pavements or coatings had failed but conditions were found that may be indicative of future failures. Twenty-six culverts

were inspected. The pavements in 7 culverts were rated good, 4 were checked, 13 were cracked only, and 2 showed sufficient loss of coating to expose the metal. Typical conditions are shown in figure 2.

The coatings on the inside of the pipes above the inverts were generally in good condition but appeared to have only fair adhesion to the metal. In this respect, 21 culverts were rated good, 1 was checked only, and 4 showed some loss of coating.

Section 2U-—2.—In general the condition of the culvert pipe installed on section 2U-2 was much worse than on section 2M-1 and for some culverts the coating was not considered to be giving adequate protection to the metal. The adhesion of the asphalt to the metal appeared to be poor. Of the 11 culverts inspected none of the paved inverts was rated as good, 3 were cracked, and 8 had lost some of the coating.

The inside coatings above the inverts also showed more deterioration than on section 2M-1. For 6 of the 11 culverts inspected the coatings were good, 1 was checked only, and 4 showed some loss of coating. One culvert, which had an extremely high loss of coat- ing on the inside walls, is of special interest. This ‘culvert was installed on a 25° skew on a erade of 47 percent with a head wall at the inlet end. It appeared that during heavy rainfall water ran down the gutter and into the pipe at high velocity. It struck the side of the pipe above the pavement at an angle and had stripped a large area of the asphalt coating from the side wall. This condition was repeated on alternate right and left sides of the pipe for a considerable dis- tance down the pipe. Figure 3, A shows the high loss of coating from the inside wall near the-inlet. The loss of asphalt coating from the pavement is illustrated in figure 3, B.

Although there was considerable checking and cracking of the asphalt pavements near the outlet, all the inverts were giving good service. In comparison with sections 2M-1 and 2U-2 there were fewer cracked areas that were loose or easily removed. Where there was a loss of asphalt the asbestos sheet was generally intact and appeared to give some additional protection to the metal. The coatings on the inside walls above the pavements seemed to have better adhesion to the asbestos-bonded metal than did the asphalt on the plain galvanized metal on section 2M-—1. A summary of the condition of the pavements and inside coatings in the culverts where the asbestos-bonded metal was used follows.

Section 2M—2.—Eleven culverts were inspected and all the inverts were found to be cracked but there was no loss of coating. The coating on the inside walls of 6 culverts was rated good, 1 was checked only, and on 4 there was some loss.

Section 2N-1.—Twenty-six culverts were inspected. The paved inverts of 2 were regarded as good, 12 were checked, 10 were cracked, 1 showed some loss of asphalt, and the condition of 1 invert could not be ascertained. The coating on the inside walls of 24 culverts was considered good, 1 showed some checking and 1 some loss of asphalt.

Section 2P-2.—Thirty-one culverts were inspected. The paved inverts in 15 were good, 4 were checked, and 12 were cracked. There was no loss of pavement in any of these pipes. In 26 of the culverts the coating on the inside walls was considered good, 1 was checked only, and 4 had some loss.

Typical conditions of the culvert pipe installed on sections 2M-—2 and 2N-1 are shown in figures 4 and 5.

tion some difficulty had been experienced by the main- tenance men in keeping some of the culverts on section 2N-2 in serviceable condition due to failure of the inverts. Inspection of the culverts revealed that in some culverts there had been a high loss of coating from the paved invert, exposing the metal reinforcing plate to the action of water and erosion. Subsequent action of water and erosion through the pipes caused the exposed reinforcing plates to loosen and pull away from the rivets holding them to the pipe. Because of the light weight of the reinforcement the loosened ends were turned up and eventually formed blocks within the pipes. This condition usually occurred at the upper end of the section lengths where they were connected by bands. A summary of the conditions found in culverts where

the metal reinforced pavement was used follows. Section 2N-2.— Of the 17 culverts examined there

were 5 in which the pavement was considered good, 2 were checked or cracked only, and in 10 culverts the asphalt was cracked or broken and showed considerable loss. In 6 culverts the exposed metal reinforcing plates were partially turned up, and in 4 culverts they were rusted. The coatings on the insides of the pipes above the pavement were in good condition and appeared to have fair adhesion to the metal.

Section 2P—1.—Since construction of this section had not been completed only 7 culverts were inspected. The paved inverts of 3 were in good condition, 3 were badly broken with some loss of coating, and 1 invert could not be examined. The metal reinforcement in all culverts was in place. The inside walls were in good condition and the coatings appeared to have fair adhesion to the pipe.

Section 2V-1.—Eleven culverts were inspected. Eight had lost coating from the inverts and the exposed plates in 2 of these were rusted. The asphalt coating

in the inverts of 2 culverts was checked or cracked. The metal reinforcing plates appeared to be in place. The condition of the invert of one culvert could not be ascertained. The inside walls of all culverts inspected were in good condition but in some culverts the coating appeared to have better adhesion to the metal than in others.

The conditions of some of the culvert pipe installed on sections 2N—2, 2P-1, and 2V-1 are illustrated by figure 6.

OUTSIDE COATINGS SEVERELY CHECKED

The asphalt coating on the outside of the culvert pipes was found to be in the same general condition on all the sections inspected. Where the outlet ends of the culverts were exposed, the asphalt coating on the outside was hard and severely checked but on most culverts there was good adhesion to the metal. On some culverts there was loss of coating, which ap- peared to be due to impact of rocks from the slopes above the outlets.

Where it was possible to dig away the cover material and examine the asphalt coating under the fill, it was found to be severely checked and to have very low or no adhesion to the metal. At the time of the inspec- tion the soil surrounding the culverts usually was damp or wet and it is probable that it remains in this condi- tion most of the time.

LABORATORY TESTS MADE ON FIELD SAMPLES

Samples, representing the three general types of bituminous-coated metal pipe, were cut from the cul- verts for analysis in the laboratory. Samples of asphalt were also taken from the paved inverts or from the inside walls.

During the construction of Blue Ridge parkway, samples of culvert pipe had been submitted to the laboratory to be tested for conformity with the speci- fications. Since the only test of asphalt required by these specifications was determination of solubility in carbon disulphide, other characteristics of the asphalt at the time of installing the pipe are not known. Because of this lack of information, a satisfactory comparison between the characteristics of the original asphalt coating and the samples taken at this time cannot be made.

A complete analysis of all asphalt samples was made and the results are shown in table 7. Considering the effects of variations in exposure of the different sam- ples, the average results of tests on samples from the

same fabricator of the coated pipe, as shown in table 8, indicate that different asphalts were used by the three fabricators. Analyses of seven typical blown asphalts of the type used or intended for use as pipe coating materials were also made and the test values are given in table 9. These asphalts were submitted either by the fabricator of the bituminous-coated pipe or by the producer of the asphalt. Although the analyses of the field samples given in tables 7 and 8 do not correspond exactly to those of any of the seven typical asphalts, both groups of asphalts are of the same general type.

In 1945 the American Railway Engineering Associa- tion ' issued a specification for bituminous-coated cor- rugated metal pipe and arches. In this specification a test was proposed for the determination of the adhesion of bituminous coating to metal, the determination to be made on samples taken from the coated pipe, delivered or about to be delivered to the purchaser.

this test, a round brass disk one-half square inch in area is embedded in the asphalt coating and pulled off by applying a load at a uniform rate. The ability of the coating to retain its adherence to the pipe is indicated by the amount of coating remaining on the metal after pulling off the disk. This amount of coating retained by the metal is expressed as a percentage of the total area under the disk. For 100-percent retained coating the asphalt breaks in cohesion and denotes good adhe- sion, zero percent denotes poor adhesion and values between 100 and zero percent coating retained are proportional between good and poor adhesion.

For some time the Public Roads Administration has been studying the adhesion of bituminous coatings to metal and a test similar to that proposed by the Ameri- can Railway Engineering Association has been used. In this study not only the amount of coating removed by the adhesion disk is noted but also the load required to pull the disk off is determined. It has been found that the adhesion load may be as significant as the amount of coating retained in evaluating the adhesion of coating materials,

The samples of bituminous-coated metal culverts from the Blue Ridge parkway were tested for adhesion of the asphalt coating to the metal. The results are given in table 10, and include adhesion values for the coating on the outside of the pipe, the inside walls above the pavement, and the coating in the invert. With the exception of the asbestos-bonded metal the adhesion values, as measured by the percentage of coating re- tained, indicate the asphalt to have little adhesion to the metal for all the samples and for the different areas tested on the same sample. In the tests on asbestos- bonded metal, failures occurred in the asbestos sheet and the coating can be considered as having good adhesion. The adhesion values as measured by the load required to pull the disk off indicate the variable adhesiveness of the asphalt coating not only on different pipes but also on different areas of the same pipe.

As indicated by the values of the adhesion load, the adhesion of the asphalts to the metal was, in general,

best in the paved inverts and poorest on the outside walls of the pipe. The adhesion load values for the sample from section 2N—1 are nearly the same for the outside, inside, and the invert, but the latter two values were determined on asbestos-bonded metal and should not be compared with those made on plain galvanized metal. The adhesion values for the sample from sec- tion 2N-—2 show the asphalt coating to have lower adhesion to the reinforcing plate than to either the outside of the pipe or to the inside of the pipe directly under the reinforcement. The adhesion of the coating to the reinforcing plate from section 2N—2 also was very low. These low values may account for the high loss of coating from the inverts in those culverts having the reinforcing plates.

The asphalt coating from the samples was heated and used to coat various kinds of metal plates. Adhesion tests were made on these coated plates to get some indication of the initial adhesion of the various asphalts to the kind of metal on which they were used in the pipe. The results of these tests are given in table 10.

The adhesion load values for the metal plates coated with the reheated asphalts are in most cases higher than the highest value obtained on the corresponding samples taken from the culverts. The amount of coating re- tained by the metal also is higher on the recoated galvanized and reinforcing plates than on the corre- sponding pipe samples. Assuming that the adhesion values for the recoated plates are indicative of the adhesion of the original coating to the pipe, there has been a loss of adhesion while the culverts were in service.

There is no correlation between any of the laboratory tests made on the asphalt coatings from the culvert pipes and the adhesion of these coatings. In the study of the adhesion of pipe coating materials now in progress it has been found that certain characteristics of asphalts may be indicative of their adhesion and should be considered in selecting asphalt to insure high initial adhesion and the retention of that adhesion to the metal after exposure in service.

SUMMARY

The data obtained in this study seem to warrant the following summary:

1. In general, the most severe deterioration of the asphalt coating and pavement was found at the outlet ends of the pipes.

2. The amount of flow of water did not seem to bear any consistent relation to the degree of deterioration occurring in the coating and pavement.

3. In general, the slope of the pipe had little influence upon the deterioration of the asphalt coating and pavement.

4. The asphalt coating on the outside of the culvert pipe was usually checked and had very little adhesion to the metal.

5. The metal-reinforced asphalt-paved inverts showed

the greatest amount of deterioration under service conditions.

6. The culvert pipes in which asbestos-bonded metal was used appeared to have the greatest resistance to deterioration. Even though there was some loss of asphalt coating the asbestos sheet appeared to give added protection to the metal.

7. The better condition of the asphalt coating on section 2M~—1 as compared with that on section 2U-2 seems to indicate that the durability of the coating depends to a considerable degree upon the type of asphalt used.

Because of the limited information available on the durability of bituminous-coated sheet metal culvert pipe and because of the short time the culverts inspected had been in service, it seems advisable to continue periodic inspections of these and other installations.

clas REPORT’ is the seventh in a series describing investigations of granular materials for surface and

base-course construction. Previous reports described laboratory and circular track tests on sand-clay and sand-clay-gravel materials, nonplastic granular ma- terials with admixtures of water-retentive chemicals, the chemical treatment of chert-gravels, lignin binder in the treatment of crusher-run materials, and volcanic cinders.

In the report on the tests of sand-clay-gravel ma- terials,? it was indicated that the plasticity index of the binder soil is less critical in coarse-graded mixtures having less than 40 percent passing the No. 10 sieve than in similar mixtures containing larger amounts of soil mortar. The purpose of this investigation was to study the effect of variations in plasticity index, ranging from nonplastic to well above the generally accepted A. A. S. H. O. specification limit of 6, on the stability of base-course mixtures having essentially the same grading and all with less than 40 percent passing the No. 10 sieve.

Five mixtures were prepared by combining crushed limestone, sand, silica dust (ground quartz), and clay. The mixtures were designed to have a grading meeting A. A. S. H. O. specification for a type B-1 base-course material. The plasticity index was varied by varying the amount of silica dust and clay in the fraction of the mixture passing the No. 200 sieve. One mixture was nonplastic while the other four mixtures were designed to have plasticity indexes of approximately 5, 10, 15, and 20. The gradings, liquid limits, and plasticity indexes of the five mixtures and the A. A. S. H. O. speci- fication limits for type B—1 base-course materials are shown in table 1.

TRAFFIC TESTS MADE ON OUTDOOR CIRCULAR TRACK

The mixtures were subjected to traffic tests on the circular track used in previous studies of water-reten- tive chemicals as admixtures with nonplastic road- building materials.2 Wheel loads were applied by 30- by 5-inch high-pressure tires requiring an inflation pres- sure of 80 pounds per square inch. The load imposed by each wheel was 800 pounds until near the end of the test when it was increased to 1,000 pounds.

Distributed traffic was used for compacting the mixtures and was obtained by gradually shifting the rotating beam longitudinally with respect to its axis of rotation causing the wheels to pursue alternately ex- panding and contracting spiral courses covering the entire track area.

Concentrated traffic was applied in the actual tests by locking the sliding pivot of the beam in such position

that the wheels pursued two concentric circular courses whose center lines were about 2% inches on either side of the center line of the track.

Since the mixtures used in this investigation contained a large percentage of coarse angular particles, the standard A.A.S.H.O. compaction test could not be used to determine the optimum moisture content for compaction. The materials for each section, after thorough dry mixing, were wetted with just enough water to make them workable and again thoroughly mixed. Representative samples were taken from the mixture as prepared for each section. ‘The moisture contents were determined and vibratory compaction tests were made. Data from these tests as well as on moisture content and density obtained at the end of the traffic tests are shown in table 2.

After the materials for each section had been prepared by wetting and mixing, they were placed in the track in two approximately equal layers to obtain a total base thickness of 6 inches. The bottom lift was hand- tamped in place and further compacted by 400 wheel- trips of distributed traffic at slow speed, obtained by rotating the beam at 9.6 revolutions per minute. The

top lift then was placed and tamped, and distributed traffic continued. After 270 wheel-trips, the speed was increased to medium or 14.0 revolutions per minute.

The compaction operations were started during damp weather. Under this condition the track did not become smooth and firm. Two soft spots developed in section 4, which showed pronounced movement under traffic, and operations were suspended temporarily. With the advent of good drying weather traffic was resumed. Compaction proceeded rapidly and the base was soon ready for surface treatment. The total amount of distributed traffic required to compact the base was 40,800 wheel-trips.

‘After compaction, the base was allowed to dry for several days. Then a prime coat consisting of approxi- mately 0.3 gallon per square yard of light tar was

applied and allowed to cure. Finally, a surface treat- ment consisting of approximately 0.4 gallon of hot- application bituminous material and a cover of 50 pounds per square yard of aggregate of %-inch maxi- mum size was applied. Distributed traffic was used to compact the surface treatment. . After 400 wheel- trips at slow speed, the speed was increased to medium and continued until the entire surface was smooth, well sealed, and showed no movement.

Compaction of the surface treatment required 19,200 wheel-trips bringing the total distributed traffic to 60,000 wheel-trips.

was introduced into the subbase and allowed to rise to a height of one-half inch above the top of the sub- base, and testing with concentrated traffic was started. As shown in the schedule of operations, table 3, the water elevation was maintained at one-half inch above the top of the subbase during the first 100,000 wheel- trips of concentrated traffic. The water was then raised to 2% inches for a similar period and finally was raised to 414 inches above the top of the subbase. This high water elevation was maintained throughout the remainder of the test period. After 384,000 wheel- trips, the load on each wheel was increased from 800 to 1,000 pounds. Testing was discontinued after a total of 434 ,000 wheel-trips had been applied.

The behavior of the materials was judged by the appearance of the sections at various stages of the tests supplemented by measurements of vertical displace- ment of the surface. Previous reports have described the transverse * and longitudinal ® profilometers with which the measurements were made.

Transverse profiles were plotted and the area between the initial and each succeeding profile was measured with a planimeter. The measured area divided by the track width of 18 inches gave the vertical displace- ment. The average displacement for the two stations on a section gave the average vertical displacement for that section.

The area between the initial and each succeeding longitudinal profile made for each wheel lane was measured for each section. That area divided by the length of the wheel lane gave the depth of rutting, and the average for the two- wheel lanes in a section gave the average depth of rutting for that section.

Surface displacements of the sections at various stages of the test are shown in figure 1. The schedule of traffic applications and changes in water elevations with notations on the behavior of the five test sections are given in table 3.

In reports on previous investigations on the same circular track, it has been stated that an average vertical displacement ‘of 0.25 inch is sufficient to cause marked damage to the Ber oie wearing course. It was also found that, with the ground water elevation one-half inch above the top of the subbase, concentrated traffic provided a condition sufficiently severe to enable the

identification of the base- course materials.

Section 5 clearly failed to give satisfactory perform- ance as measured by these standards. This section, which had a plasticity index of 21, began to show movement under traffic soon after water was admitted to the subbase. At 110,000 wheel-trips, the average vertical displacement had reached 0.4 inch and the section was considered as ‘“‘failed’’ (see table 3). Fig- ure 2 shows the condition of the section at this time.

It was necessary to repair section 5 before the test on the other sections could be continued. The surface

definitely unsatisfactory

was scarified and crushed limestone and tar added. The section was then hand-tamped until firm. Pro- filometer measurements on the section were discon- tinued.

BASES WITH HIGH PLASTICITY INDEXES INFERIOR

The nonplastic base course in section 1 remained in good condition until exceptionally severe conditions were imposed near the end of the test. When the water was raised to 4% inches above the top of the sub- base after 260,000 wheel-trips, this section began to show slight signs of distress although the average ver- tical displacement (see fig. 1) did not reach 0.25 inch until about 370,000 wheel- -trips. Damp spots began to appear on the surface and slight movement under traffic was noted. Increasing the wheel load to 1,000 pounds had no appreciable effect as far as could be observed and the average displacement continued at a uniform rate.

At 434,000 wheel-trips, when traffic testing was dis- continued, section 1 was rated as failed primarily because the average vertical displacement was in excess of 0.25 inch. Figure 3 shows the condition of sections 1, 2, and 3 at the end of the test.

Section 2, which had a plasticity index of 4, behaved slightly better than section 1 at all stages of the test. Introduction of water, even at the maximum elevation of 4% inches above the top of the subbase, had little effect on the stability. The only noticeable change was a gradual consolidation in the wheel tracks. No upward movement of material was observed between the wheel tracks or at the edges of the track. As shown in figure 1, the displacements measured on section 2 were less than those measured on any other section. At the end of the test, the average depth of rut was approximately 0.36 inch and the average vertical dis- placement was approximately 0.22 inch. After 434,000 wheel-trips, the conclusion of traffic, the section was still in serviceable condition.

Section 3, with a plasticity index of 9, was stable throughout the compaction period (60,000 wheel- trips). During the testing with concentrated traffic with water one-half inch above the top of the subbase, the section remained in good condition although there was a gradual development of ruts as shown by the displacement measurements plotted in figure 1.

After 160,000 wheel-trips, the water level was raised to 2% inches and concentrated traffic continued. Dur- ing this phase of the testing, displacement and rutting continued at a uniform rate.

At about 200,000 wheel-trips slight movement of the surface and base could be observed with the passage of each wheel. This movement continued throughout the remainder of the test although it was never of sufficient magnitude to disrupt the surface.

FIGURE 3.—CONDITION OF SEcTIONS 1, 2, AND 3 AT THE END OF THE TESTS.

The average vertical displacement of section 3 was approximately 0.24 inch at 260,000 wheel-trips, the conclusion of testing with water at the 24-inch eleva- tion. ‘This was more than for any other section except section 5 which had failed at about 100,000 wheel-trips. Displacements continued uniformly under concentrated traffic with the water level raised to 4% inches above the top of the subbase. By the time traffic had reached 300,000 wheel-trips, the average vertical displacement was well over 0.25 inch, mud and water began appear- ing through cracks in the surface, and the section was rated failed although traffic was continued over the section to the end of the test without difficulty.

The behavior of section 4, which had a plasticity index of 17, was erratic. As previously noted, two soft spots developed in this section early in the compaction operation. Although these spots became firm before the surface treatment was constructed, they persisted as areas of local weakness throughout the early phases of testing with concentrated traffic. Immediately after the introduction of water into the subbase the passage of the wheels caused these spots to move visibly and to become depressed to such an extent that it appeared the section would fail.

As traffic continued, these areas became more stable. By the time 110,000 wheel-trips had been completed, the movement of the base was barely perceptible. At this time, the surface generally was in good condition with local rutting at the two weak points as shown in figure 4. No further change was observed until the water level was raised to 2% inches above the top of the subbase at 160,000 wheel-trips.

The average vertical displacement in section 4 at 160,000 wheel-trips was less than that in section 3 at the same time. However, when testing was resumed with the water level raised to 2% inches, the rate of average vertical displacement in section 4 was greater than that in section 3, and by the end of the test the average vertical displacements of both sections were equal and well in excess of 0.25 inch.

The two weak spots originally observed in section 4 again became unstable under traffic when the water was raised to 2% inches above the top of the subbase. The movement in these areas gradually decreased. At 200,000 wheel-trips slight movement of the base was observed in the entire section. This general movement throughout section 4 continued until 260,000 wheel- trips, at which point the water level was raised to 4% inches above the top of the subbase.

Section 4 failed as soon as traffic was resumed after increasing the water elevation. A mud-boil appeared at one of the soft spots at this time and the surface of the entire section moved under traffic. At 310,000 wheel-trips, the average vertical displacement of section 4 was almost 0.3 inch and the entire section was rated failed although traffic was continued to 434,000 wheel- trips in order to evaluate other sections. The appear- ance of section 4 at the end of traffic testing is shown in figure 5.

TEST. FIGURE 5.—SECTION 4 AT THE END OF THE

PLASTICITY INDEX IS A GUIDE TO PERFORMANCE

All five of the mixtures tested met the requirements for grading of the A. A. 5S. H. O. specification for type B-1_ base-course material, but, as shown in table 1, only those placed in sections 1 1 and 2 met the plasticity index requirement.

The criteria used in evaluating these mixtures in the circular track tests were that an average vertical dis- placement of 0.25 inch was sufficient to cause marked damage to the bituminous wearing course and that concentrated traffic with water one-half inch above the top of the subbase provided a condition sufficiently severe to enable the identification of definitely unsatis- factory base-course materials.

Based on these criteria, the sections can be rated in order of superiority, as follows:

Section 2—Plasticity index 4_____________ Excellent Section, 1—Nonplastic. = 2-2 == -____. Satisfactory Section 8—Plasticity index 9____________- Border line Section 4—Plasticity index 17___________- Unsatisfactory Section 5—Plasticity index 21____________ Unsatisfactory

The behavior of section 2 was excellent throughout the tests. After 434,000-wheel-trips, including 174 ,000 wheel-trips with water 4% inches above the top of the subbase, the average vertical displacement was still less than 0.25 inch. The dry density at the conclusion of the test (table 2) was 146.3 pounds per cubic foot and the moisture content was 4 percent. Section 1 behaved almost as well as section 2. The nonplastic material compacted under traffic somewhat more than did the mixture with a plasticity index of 4 used in section 2. As a result, the dry density at the end of the test was 148.2 pounds per cubic foot.

It was not until near the end of the test when ex- tremely severe conditions were imposed that the average aie al displacement measured on section 1 exceeded

25 inch. abe course materials having gradings and plasticity indexes similar to those used in sections 1 and 2 would, therefore, be expected to give excellent service under all moisture conditions with those having low but definite plasticity indexes being slightly superior under the most adverse conditions.

Section 3 (plasticity index 9) was readily compacted and, under concentrated traffic, with water one-half inch above the top of the subbase, the average vertical displacement of this section was less than 0.2 inch. Therefore, the material cannot be rated as definitely unsatisfactory. However, displacement of the surface continued under continued concentrated traffic and exceeded 0.25 inch shortly after 260,000 wheel-trips when the water elevation was raised to 4% inches above the top of the subbase. Although the final dry density of section 3 was 146.5 pounds per cubie foot, slightly higher than that of section 2, evidence of lateral move- ment was observed and mud and water were being forced through cracks in the surface near the end of the test. The section was therefore rated as border line. Materials having similar gradings and plasticity indexes would be expected to perform satisfactorily in well- drained areas, but would probably undergo sufficient displacement under adverse moisture conditions to cause failure of the surface

Section 4 (plasticity index 17) gave trouble during compaction as well as periodically during the testing with concentrated traffic. Although the average vertical displacements measured on this section were less than those measured on section 3, except for the readings at the end of the test, the pronounced tendency of the material to become unstable each time the water eleva- tion was raised is indicative of unsatisfactory perform- ance under any but dry conditions.

Rutting started in section 5 (plasticity index 21) as soon as testing with concentrated traffic commenced with water one-half inch above the top of the subbase and progressed rapidly. The average vertical displace- ment was 0.4 inch at 110,000 wheel-trips at which time it was necessary to repair the section. Mixtures meeting A. A. 5S. H. O. grading requirements, but hav- ing plasticity indexes as high as this one, are therefore considered definitely unsatisfactory for use as base- course materials.

CONCLUSIONS

Based on the results of tests described in this report, it is concluded that:

1. Mixtures meeting the grading requirements of the A. A.S. H.O. specification for type B-1 base-course materials should also conform to the plasticity index requirement for best results under traffic even though the mixtures contain less than 40 percent of material passing the No. 10 sieve.

2. A material meeting the grading requirements and having a definite and measur: able plasticity index within the specific ation limits is to be preferred to absolutely nonplastic materials having similar Ben and is decidedly superior to those having appreciably higher plasticity indexes.

3. Although the material having a plasticity index of 9 gave fairly satisfactory service except in the latter portion of the tests run with high water elevation, the possibility of the occurrence of conditions approaching complete saturation at some time durmg the life of a base course makes the present A. A. S. H. O. specifica- tion limit of 6 for the plasticity index a desirable if not a vitally necessary requirement.

TESTS OF CONCRETE CONTAINING WAYLITE

BY THE DIVISION OF PHYSICAL RESEARCH, PUBLIC ROADS ADMINISTRATION

Reported by W. F. Kellermann, Senior Materials Engineer

VARIETY OF MATERIALS are used as light- weight aggregates for concrete and are sold under

different trade names. Probably the best known and most widely used material is known commercially as Haydite, an artificial aggregate made by burning shale or clay. Other lightweight aggregates are made by different processes. One of these is made by processing slag with steam in a centrifuge, the resulting product being known as Waylite. When the tests reported herein were initiated,

Waylite was being marketed both as a fine powder (practically 100 percent passing a No. 200 sieve), and as fine and coarse aggregate. It was decided to study both products, the first by using finely ground Waylite dust as a replacement for a portion*of the portland cement in the mix, and the second by comparing some of the properties of concrete made with fine and coarse Waylite aggregate with those of comparable concrete made with natural materials.

Three series of tests were run. Series A was planned to determine the effect of substituting various percent- ages of Waylite dust for portland cement on the crush- ing and flexural strengths of concrete. In series B the effect of using Waylite fine and coarse aggregate on the unit weight and on the crushing and flexural strengths of concrete was determined by comparison with results obtained with natural aggregates. Series C was to determine the effect of using Waylite dust to replace portland cement on the resistance of concrete to attack by sulphates.

Natural river sand and crushed limestone were used as aggregates in series A and C and as aggregates for comparison with Waylite aggregate in series B.

All of the strength specimens in series: A were cured in moist air and tested at 28 days. In series B, con- tinuously moist-cured specimens were tested at 28, 180, and 360 days and, in addition, one group of speci- mens was cured the first 180 days in moist air and the remaining 180 days in laboratory air. This made it possible to compare the strengths of specimens cured the entire period in moist air with the strengths of specimens subjected to both moist air and laboratory air curing. The specimens used in series C were cut from beam specimens remaining after tests for flexural strength in series A.

For series A and C, four base mixes (mixes without Waylite dust) were designed with different water- cement ratios and a constant slump (2.5 to 3 inches). Water-cement ratios were selected as follows: 0.70, 0.80, 0.90, and 1.00, by volume. The corresponding cement factors ranged from 6.3 to 4.4 sacks of cement per cubic yard. For each base mix, three additional mixes were made in which Waylite dust was used to replace cement in the following percentages by weight: 25, 32, and 40. The substitution of Waylite dust for cement in the amounts used did not appear to affect the slump or ease of placement of the concrete in any way.

In series B data were obtained on the basis of both a comparable cement content and a comparable water- cement ratio. For the first condition two mixes for

each aggregate combination were designed, one con- taining six sacks and the other seven sacks of cement per cubic yard. For the second condition, an additional mix was designed with natural aggregates having the same water-cement ratio as the 6-sack Waylite concrete.

Chemical analyses of the cement and Waylite dust are shown in table 1. Physical tests of the ageregates are given in table 2 while the mix data are shown in tables 3 and 4. The effect on the weight of the concrete of using Waylite fine and coarse aggregate is shown in the last column of table 4.

The concrete was mixed in a laboratory mixer with a capacity of 1% cubic feet and of the pan and paddle type, the pan being removable for cleaning. Test specimens were standard 6-inch by 12-inch cylinders and 6- by 6- by 21-inch beams. The absorption of the Waylite aggregate was very high, which is, of course, typical of aggregates of this type. For this reason all ageregates were immersed in water for 48 hours prior to mixing the concrete. However, the Waylite dust used in series A and C was not immersed as it was used as a substitute for cement.

All beam specimens were tested on an 18-inch span by the third point loading method, A. S. T. M. desig- nation C 78.

The specimens used in series C to study the effect of Waylite dust upon the resistance of the concrete to alkali were 6-inch cubes sawed from the 6- by 6-inch beam specimens remaining after the strength tests of series A. Two cuts were made on each half beam so

as to expose aggregate on two of the six surfaces. When 42 days old the cube specimens were completely immersed in a 10-percent alkali solution of 5 percent magnesium sulphate and 5 percent sodium sulphate. During the 14-day interval between 28 and 42 days the specimens were kept continuously wet. Periodic weighings were made after immersion in alkali solu- tion from which the losses in weight were determined.

DISCUSSION OF SERIES A

Results of strength tests of series A are given in table 5 and in figures 1 and 2. The flexural strengths shown in table 5 and plotted in figure 1 show how the percentage of Waylite dust in the mix affected the strength of concretes of varying cement content. Water-cement ratio as used in the discussion of series A refers only to the water-cement ratio of the base mix of each group, mix containing no Waylite dust. For total water content of mixes containing Waylite dust see table 3. It will be observed from figure 1 that in concrete for which the base water-cement ratio was. 0.70, mixes No. 1(a) to 1(d), inclusive, the flexural strength

the same strength. It may be stated that the replace- ment of part of the portland cement by Waylite dust had a beneficial effect upon the flexural strength of the concrete at 28 days, this effect being more marked for concretes with low water-cement ratios (high cement factors).

It will be observed from the data that the amount of Waylite dust giving the maximum beneficial effect varied with the water-cement ratio, the lower the water-cement ratio (richer the mix), the greater the percentage of Waylite dust permissible. The flexural strength of the concrete was not adversely affected by a replacement of cement by Waylite dust up to 32 per- cent by weight. For concrete in which the base water-cement ratio is 0.90 or less, this percentage may be increased to 40 percent. In studying these results it should be noted that the tests were made at 28 days, no strength data being obtained for other ages.

Crushing strength results for series A are also shown in table 5 and are plotted in figure 2. The use of Way- lite dust as a replacement did not have the same bene- ficial effect upon the crushing strength of the concrete as is shown for flexural strength. For example, for the mixes in which the base water-cement ratio was 0.8 or higher, the strength of the concrete containing Waylite dust was in most cases slightly lower than the corre- sponding straight portland cement concrete, the per- centage of reduction increasing as the amount of Way- lite dust used as a replacement was increased. In the case of the group for which the base water-cement ratio was 0.70, the strength of the concrete containing the Waylite dust was approximately the same as that of the straight portland cement concrete.

DISCUSSION OF SERIES B

The results for series B are tabulated in table 6 and are shown graphically in figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 shows the flexural strengths and figure 4 shows crushing strengths. These data show, for both types of con- crete (that is, the concrete containing natural sand and crushed limestone and the concrete containing Waylite aggregate), the flexural and crushing strengths after 28, 180, and 360 days’ continuous moist curing as well as corresponding strengths after curing 180 days in moist air followed by 180 days in laboratory air.

The flexural strengths of the limestone concrete and the Waylite concrete can be compared by studying the individual panels of figure 3. For example, the second panel gives the flexural strength of the 6-sack limestone concrete, while the fourth panel gives the strength of

the 6-sack Waylite concrete. The moist-cured con- crete containing the Waylite aggregates developed only about one-half the strength of the limestone concrete. The same general trend applies to the 7-sack mixtures.

Comparing the two concretes on an approximately equal water-cement ratio basis (that is, 4.4-sack lime- stone concrete with 6-sack Waylite concrete), the Way- lite concrete developed about 60 percent of the strength of the limestone concrete. These differences are no ~ doubt due to the physical characteristics of the Way- lite aggregate. Being of a cellular structure and very light in weight, it does not have the strength of a nor- mal limestone such as was used in these tests as the basis of comparison. The strength of the concrete stored 360 days in moist air was higher than that of comparable concrete stored 180 days in moist air fol- lowed by 180 days in laboratory air. For the 6- and 7- sack limestone concrete, this decrease in strength aver- aged about 6 percent, while for the Waylite concrete the specimens cured in laboratory air for 180 days fol- lowing 180 days in moist air and tested dry gave only about 40 percent of the strength of those cured wet for 360 days and tested wet.

The marked reduction in flexural strength obtained in these tests as a result of intermittent curing agrevs very closely with results previously obtained in a series of tests of Haydite concrete! In these tests Haydite specimens cured 180 days in the moist room followed by 180 days in air gave but 36 percent of the strength of similar specimens cured 360 days continuously wet. Specimens in the same series made of natural aggre- gates and cured under identical conditions gave 90

percent of the strength of continuously moist-cured specimens.

Jn general, the data shown in figure 3 indicate that the strength of the Waylite concrete was about one- half of that obtained with comparable concrete (same cement content) made with natural aggregates when the test specimens were cured continuously moist. For specimens tested at 360 days, which were subjected to 180 days of moist curing followed by 180 days of air curing, the strength of the Waylite concrete was only about one-fifth of the strength of the concrete made with the natural materials. The limestone used in these tests is of a nature that tends to produce high-strength concrete, particularly in flexure.

Crushing strength data are shown in table 6 and plotted in figure 4, the arrangement being the same as in figure 3. For the continuously moist-cured speci- mens the results agree very closely with those obtained in flexure, the Waylite concrete giving about half the strength of the limestone concrete for equal cement content and about two-thirds for equal water-cement ratio. However, specimens cured moist for 180 days followed by 180 days’ curing in air did not show the retrogression in strength that was found with the flexure specimens. This applies both to the Waylite concrete and to the limestone concrete. In fact, the limestone concrete subjected to the air curing gave about 10 percent higher strength than did the specimens cured continuously moist.

SERIES C WITH EXPOSURE TO SULPHATE ACTION

Periodic examination was made of the cube specimens from series A which had been immersed in sulphate solution, and the losses in weight, based on the wet weight of the specimens at the time of immersion, were determined. These losses, computed on a percentage basis, are given in table 7. They are also plotted in figure 5 in a manner to nee out the effect of richness of mix and also the effect of varying the quantity of Waylite dust used as a replacement. The water- cement ratios for the base mixes, mixes containing no Waylite dust, and the percentages of replacements were, of course, the same as in series A (see table 3). The bar diagrams in figure 5, which extend to 100

percent, are broken for the reason that in no case did — complete disintegration occur at exactly 39, 52, or 98

months but at some time between these periods and the time previous weight determinations were made.

Considering the resistance of the base concrete as affected by water-cement ratio, it is evident that the durability was markedly decreased by increasing the water-cement ratio. The straight portland cement concrete showed losses after 26 months’ immersion varying from 6.4 percent for a water-cement ratio of 0.70 to 63.6 percent for a water-cement ratio of 1.00. After 39 months’ immersion, all of the plain concretes with water-cement ratios of 0.80 or higher had com- pletely disintegrated while at 52 months the plain con- crete with a water-cement ratio of 0.70 had completely disintegrated.

The use of Waylite dust as a replacement for a portion of the portland cement had a decidedly beneficial effect in these tests. Referring again to table 7 and to figure 5, 1t will be noted that, for any given base water-cement ratio, improvement in resistance to the action of the sulphate solution resulted from the use of the Waylite dust. For mixes 1 (a) to 1 (d), inclusive, the losses in weight after 26 months’ immersion varied from 6.4 percent for the 0-percent replacement to 3.9 percent for the 40-percent replacement. This group had a low water-cement ratio of 0.70. In contrast, for the same immersion period, the group in which the base water-cement ratio was 1.00 showed losses ranging from 63.6 percent for the 0-percent replacement to 31.0 percent for the 40-percent replacement. The same general trends hold for the other immersion periods. A study of the weight losses after over 8 years’ (98

months) immersion furnishes interesting comparisons. In the lowest water-cement ratio group none of the mixes containing Waylite dust showed complete dis- integration, the maximum loss in weight being 35.5 percent for the 25-percent replacement. In the next higher water-cement ratio group the mix containing 25 percent Waylite showed complete disintegration while the mix with 40 percent Waylite showed practically the same weight loss as that found with the 25-percent replacement in the group having a base water-cement ratio of 0.70, mix No. 1(b). In the group having 0.90 base water-cement ratio the weight loss of the mix containing the largest amount of Waylite was 51.0 percent with all other mixes showing complete disintegration. In the case of the group in “which the base water-cement ratio was 1.00, all mixes showed complete disintegration at 98 months.

TIRE WEAR AND COSTS ABSTRACT AND CONCLUSIONS RESULTING FROM STUDIES AT IOWA ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT STATION

ALUABLE DATA ON TIRE PERFORMANCE are presented in bulletin 161, Tire Wear and Cost on

Selected Roadway Surfaces, by R. A. Moyer, research professor of civil engineering, and Glen L. Tesdell, re- search assistant, of the Iowa Engineering Experiment Station at Ames, lowa. The work reported was done in cooperation with the Public Roads Administration. The following is an abstract of the report and a full presenta- tion of the summary and conclusions.

This study of automobile tires is part of a general investigation of vehicle operating costs, and of the roughness (in terms of riding comfort) and slipperiness of various types of roadway surface. The 10 sections of highway of various types, on which studies were made, varied in length from 20 miles to 320 miles. The sections or routes were located in four States—lIowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Wyoming—and were selected because they were considered as reasonably representa- tive of the types of surface on the main highways of the United States. The scope of the investigation is indicated by the fact that it involved the use of eight automobiles with which detailed observations were made during 450,000 miles of carefully controlled driving.

Tires were the subject of special study because their cost is influenced to a greater extent by the type and condition of the roadway surface than is any other item of vehicle operating cost. The study provided data indicating the effect of each of 15 factors on the rate of tire wear, and of 12 additional factors contribut-

-ing directly to tire carcass failure. It was determined that tire wear is influenced directly by: Car speed; rate of braking and accelerating; type of roadway surface; tire inflation; wheel alinement and wheel balance; atmospheric temperature; tire switching or “rotation” from one wheel position to another around the car; highway curves and grades; type, grade, and age of the tire; mechanical condition of the car; and the driving habits of the operator. Factors which contributed directly to tire carcass failures were: Neglected cuts, punctures, stone bruises, rim bruises, and _ fabric breaks; heat, fatigue, overload, and incorrect inflation; tread separation, deterioration of the rubber and fabric from oil and water, and damage from tire chains; and certain types of abnormal wear. The results of the tire wear measurements conducted by the lowa State Highway Commission to determine the relative resist- ance to wear of various makes of 100-level and 90-level tires and of synthetic rubber tires supplement the data obtained in this investigation, thus making it possible to present a summary of all of the major factors that contribute to tire wear and tire failures. The term 100-level designates tires of the grade regularly used by car manufacturers as original equipment on new cars; the price of these tires is taken as a base (100 percent =100-level).

The studies indicated that, primarily, speed deter- mined the rate of tire wear and that the 35-mile speed limit, imposed as a war measure in the interest of tire conservation, was based on sound premises. On the basis of the average wear rate observed on concrete pavements and bituminous surfaces in Iowa and Kansas, a life of 56,500 miles for automobile tires may

248

be expected, with due attention to tire maintenance, if the car speed does not exceed 35 miles per hour; whereas at 65 miles per hour the life expectancy would be only about 18,700 miles.

It was found that variations in car speed affected tire wear to a greater extent than any other single - factor. Stop-and-go studies, simulating car usage in cities, showed an extremely high rate of wear. It was found that when the wheels of a car are out of aline- ment the continuous braking effect which is created may cause tires to wear at a rate as high as 10 times the normal rate.

The investigation disclosed that there is a wide varia- tion in tire costs on the various types of road surface, and a sharp rise in the costs as the number of stops per mile is increased. Improvements in tires and in the construction of highways have yielded big dividends to the motorist, but much improvement still is possible as is evident from the fact that the tire costs for travel on gravel surfaces are about double those for travel on concrete pavements.

The United States, in devoting its energies to the vigorous prosecution of World War II, has been con- fronted with a rubber shortage, and in consequence the supply of tires for civilian use has been sharply cur- tailed. The findings of this investigation, indicating so clearly the measures necessary for tire conservation, were summarized in nontechnical form in a pamphlet, Tire Wear and Tire Failures on Various Road Surfaces, published by the Public Roads Administration in 1943.

The results of the study show that highway engineers can aid in tire conservation by minimizing, within the limits of safety, the abrasiveness of surface treatments, and by keeping roads and streets in good repair to prevent tire bruises and punctures which may lead to blowouts. Careful attention by the vehicle owner to such measures as repairs of minor tire injuries, correct inflation, and elimination of exposure to oil and exces- sive sunlight or heat can contribute still more. These measures are of course equally efficacious in peacetime or in wartime. The report provides information that will be useful in highway planning and traffic control, and in the selection of maintenance methods and materials.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

The significant data and conclusions of this investi- gation are as follows:

1. Results of tire wear measurements are reported for more than 2,000,000 miles of tire travel on selected sections of the major types of road surface in Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Wyoming.

2. Variations in car speed caused greater differences in the rate of tire wear (loss of tread rubber) than did variations in braking and acceleration, type and con- dition of road surface, tire inflation pressure, or any of the other factors investigated.

3. The rate of tire wear on concrete pavements at a nominal speed of 65 miles per hour was four times that at a nominal speed of 25 miles per hour.

4. The greatest change in tire wear with change in speed was observed when operating on the most abra- sive surfaces, for which wear rates at 65 miles per hour

July—August—September 1946 PUBLIC ROADS _249 were in some cases as much as four times those at 35 miles per hour.

5. The least variation of wear with speed was ob- served when operating on bituminous surfaces sealed with thin coatings of asphalt or covered with moder- ately soft limestone chips held in place by asphalt. The rate of wear on these surfaces at 65 miles per Bee was approximately double that at 35 miles per our. 6. The higher rates of tire wear observed at the

higher speeds were due to the greater amount of bounc- ing and slipping of the tires, the increased traction required at the rear wheels, and the increase in brake applications and braking time.

7. In stop-and-go tests, simulating city traffic con- ditions, the rate of wear was seven times that in normal driving on rural pavements at a speed of 25 miles per hour.

8. The average rate of wear of tires used regularly on city streets at the customary speeds was two to three times that of tires used on rural pavements at 45 miles per hour.

9. The rate of tire wear on dry pavements was approximately double that on the same pavements when wet.

10. When wheels are out of alinement, forward motion of the car produces a continuous braking effect which, in extreme cases, may result in tire wear at 10 times the normal rate.

11. Rate of tire wear during the first 500 miles of use was three times the rate after tires had been driven 3,000 to 6,000 miles.

12. Rate of tire wear was affected only slightly by variations in atmospheric temperature. On gravel sur- faces the rate of wear was greatest in the summer months, but on dry concrete pavements and bituminous sur- faces the rates of wear were greatest during the winter.

13. The rate of wear for the tires on rear wheels was from 130 to 200 percent of the rate on front wheels. As a general average, the tires on the right wheels wore 10 percent faster than those on the left wheels.

14. Switching or ‘“‘rotating” all tires, including that on the spare wheel, from one wheel position to the next around the car every 2,000 miles is recommended as a means of equalizing tire wear.

15. Tire wear on curves at speeds that caused the tires to “‘scream’’ was more than 10 times the wear at speeds that did not result in sidewise skidding.

16. The rates of wear of tires of the 100-level grade made by various manufacturers, and normally sup- plied on new cars in prewar days, did not vary from the average by more than 10 percent.

17. The rate of wear of two synthetic rubber tires, on one car, exceeded the rate for the two regular 100- level tires by approximately 30 percent.

18. Increase in the rate of wear of tires, because of age, was less than 25 percent for ages up to 3 years. Effect of age on wear was twice as great for rear tires as for front tires.

19. The average life of 10 tires operated on concrete pavements was 36,651 miles. On gravel surfaces the average life for 20 tires was 23,160 miles. All of the test tires were used more miles per year than are those on the average passenger car and, therefore, under more favorable conditions as to age.

20. Records of car owners and of tire manufacturers indicate that in 1940 the average life of tires in the United States was approximately 22,000 miles.

21. The longest life of a 100-level tire in the wear tests made by the Iowa State Highway Commission was 70,000 miles, and the shortest life 20,000 miles. se of the synthetic rubber tires had a life of 36,000 miles.

22. Operation of a vehicle equipped with a set of tires with recapped treads made of 95 percent reclaimed rubber, indicated a life after recapping of 14,000 miles if speed were restricted to 35 miles per hour.

23. A life of 60,000 miles is a reasonable expectancy for 100-level tires with one recapping of reclaimed rub- ber, and restriction of speed to 35 miles per hour.

24. Many thousands of tire-miles are lost when tires become unserviceable because of avoidable carcass failures long before the treads are worn smooth. Among avoidable damages are abnormal tread wear; carcass weakness resulting from neglected cuts and punctures, stone bruises and fabric breaks, and loosen- ing of inside cords by running on soft or flat tires; overload, incorrect inflation, and rim _ bruises; and tread separation, deterioration from oil, and long exposure to sunlight or heat.

25. In 132,000 miles of driving on gravel surfaces, there were 98 punctures as compared with a single puncture in the same distance on concrete pavements and one puncture in 72,000 miles on bituminous surfaces.

26. The heat, impact, and fatigue effects of operation on rough, loose, corrugated gravel surfaces resulted in tread cracking and blowouts. Approximately 30 per- cent of the original (new-to-smooth) tread-groove depth was still remaining when these tires became unservice- able because of carcass failures.

27. Continuous operation at 65 miles per hour on concrete pavements, with no change in atmospheric temperature, caused the pressure in 6.00-16 passenger car tires to increase 4.6 p. s.i. (pounds per square inch) in the rear tires and 3.5 p. s. 1. n the front tires. For continuous operation under similar conditions the tire pressure was 1.5 p.s.1. higher at 65 miles per hour than at 35 miles per hour for both the front and rear tires.

28. The tire pressure rise when driving on gravel surfaces was 0.25 p. s. 1. Jower than that on concrete pavements for corresponding speeds and atmospheric temperatures.

29. An increase of 1.0 p. s. 1. in tire pressure was observed for each 20° F. rise in atmospheric tempera- ture.

30. A normal loss in tire pressure of 1 to 2 p. s. 1. per week was observed during the winter, and of 2 to 4 p.s. 1. during the summer.

31. An inflation pressure of 30 to 32 p.s. 1. “‘cold”’ is recommended to obtain the greatest service from 6.00-16 tires.

32. The practice of decreasing the inflation pressure by letting air out of tires in hot weather is not recom- mended, unless pressures are checked and adjusted carefully and frequently.

33. The temperatures in the treads of 6.00-16 tires in continuous operation at 25 miles per hour on dry concrete pavements, averaged 35° F. higher than the atmospheric temperatures in summer and 55° F. higher in winter. When operating under similar conditions at 65 miles per hour the tread temperatures averaged 75° F. higher than the atmospheric temperatures in summer and 95° F. higher in winter.

.

250 P-OBEROSROA DS. Vol. 24, No. 9

34. Tread temperatures averaged about 40° F. lower on wet surfaces than on the same surfaces in the dry condition.

35. By making suitable allowance (an increase of 3 to 5 percent) for the changes in tire volume due to changes in tire pressure, the “tire pressures for various tire-air temperatures can be computed by applying the Jaws relating to pressure and temperature of gases.

36. The costs for 6.00-16 tires and tubes operated on concrete pavements in Jowa and Kansas averaged 0.18 cent per car-mile; for bituminous surfaces in Kansas the average cost was 0.19 cent per car-mile; and for gravel surfaces in Iowa it was 0.37 cent per car-mile. The average speeds to which these costs apply were 4215, 43, and 37 miles per hour, respectively.

37. In 1910 the average life of tires was less than 3,000 miles and the average cost of a tire and tube was about $45. Thus, the average cost for tires and tubes in 1910 was about 6 cents per car-mile, or 33 times the average cost of the tires and tubes used on concrete pavements in this study.

38. The tire costs in the stop-and-go driving on =

concrete pavements averaged 0.61 cent per car-mile, or more than three times the corresponding cost for average cross-country driving.

39. “Highway engineers can aid in tire conservation by minimizing the. abrasiveness, within the limits of safety, when repairing or resurfacing roadways. Roads and streets should be kept in good repair, free from pieces of metal and glass that can puncture tires. Holes with sharp edges, which cause cuts and bruises that may result in blowouts, should be repaired promptly.

40. Compliance with restrictions of the wartime tire conservation program is necessary to keep civilian motor vehicles in operation until adequate supplies of new tires are available. The major items in the con- servation program include limiting speed to 35 miles per hour, recapping of tires at the proper time, elimi- nating all nonessential tr avel, and periodic inspecting of tires. Other measures recommended to car owners are: Start and stop slowly, reduce speed on sharp curves and steep hills, check tire inflation each week, and keep loads within the rated capacity of the tires.

CONCLUDING STATEMENT

These tests emphasize the importance of moisture condition at time of test upon the flexural strength of concrete containing aggregates of the type represented by Waylite. The results indicate that the moisture content of the concrete at the time of test has a far ereater effect when aggregates of this type are employed than when normal aggregates are used and corroborate the results of previous investigations.

The use of Waylite as fine and coarse aggregate in concrete resulted in a marked decrease in both crushing and flexural strength as compared to the results ob- tained with concrete containing the natural aggregates

used in these tests. The decrease was somewhat greater when the comparisons were made on an equal cement-factor basis than when based on a comparable water-cement ratio.

The use of Waylite dust as a replacement for a portion of the portland cement resulted in an increase in flexural strength and a slight decrease in crushing strength. Its use also markedly increased resistance to the destructive action of a sulphate solution con- sisting of 5 percent Na,SO, and 5 percent MgSQ,. The tests emphasize the beneficial effect, from the standpoint of sulphate resistance as well as strength, of using a low water-cement ratio.
