Abstract:In light of the various quality assurance (QA) issues pertaining to tack coats that occur during construction, there is a need for a means of verifying interlayer bond quality in situ. Despite the immense use of tack coat as a constituent in paving, there are no construction specifications with provisions for the quantification of tack coat bond quality in laboratory or field settings. In this study, a construction QA process for tack coat bond performance was proposed. A novel field tack coat bond strength te… Show more
