Longitudinal Joint Construction Techniques for Asphalt ...

Thirty hot mix asphalt (HMA) test sections were constructed in Michigan (1992), Wisconsin (1992), Colorado (1994), and Pennsylvania (1995) to evaluate the effectiveness of twelve different longitudinal joint construction techniques. The performance of these test sections was evaluated in 1996 after one to four years in service.

Practical Recommendations for Construction of Longitudinal ...

HMA (also known as asphalt) pavements do not require the creation of joints as is generally the case for portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. However, unless echelon paving is adopted, a longitudinal joint occurs in between adjacent paved lanes. In the first pass of the paver, the first lane is constructed.

It is not an accident that longitudinal joint failures are primarily associated with the northern areas of the country, where freeze/thaw cycling is an annual occurrence. As joints open, more water infiltrates, migrating under the asphalt pavement mats. Eventually the wearing surface mat begins to separate from the lower asphalt pavement surface.

Longitudinal joints are often the weakest part in a hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavement. Common problems associated with joints are the formations of longitudinal cracks along the joint, ravelling, and widening of crack due to subsequent ingress of water. It is believed that these problems occur when there is a substantial difference in densities on either side of the joint.
