    Concrete Beton, Volume 111, pp 7-13, December 2005 Variation in Cover to Reinforcement: Local and International Trends Author: P D Ronné Senior Structural and Forensic Engineer, BKS (Pty) Ltd., Cape Town ABSTRACT: Concrete cover to reinforcement is a critical parameter for durability. Despite a common perception that cover is a relatively simple subject, the terminology for cover suggests the converse. A brief review of cover meter devices, their operating principles and their appropriate use is presented. In particular, the lack of guidance in taking reliable cover surveys is identified and a suitable survey method is suggested. The variability of cover is further defined. Analyses of both international and local cover survey data are used to quantify the relationship of the relative variability measure using the coefficient of variation with the mean cover. The absolute variability measured using the standard deviation, is presented for the trend. An investigation has shown that the relative variability of cover increases significantly at low covers, and decreases at increased covers. South African construction exhibited higher absolute variability regarding the achievement of cover, as measured using the standard deviation. In building construction, the achievement of specified cover is quantitively shown to be more variable than that achieved on bridge construction projects in South Africa. Recommended tolerance margins for South African construction practice are proposed at 10mm, 15mm and 20mm for precision, normal in-situ and heavy civil works respectively.

Pavement thickness, width and Roads type should vary based on the intended function of the paved area. 2 Residential Streets 3 Collector Roads Pavement Thickness 4 Arterial roads 5 Freeways, Expressways, Interstates Pavement thickness is determined by four factors: environment, traffic, base characteristics and the pavement material used. Based on the above classes, pavement thickness ranges from 3" for a Class 1 parking lot, to 10" or more for Class 5 freeways. Environmental factors such as moisture and temperature significantly affect pavement. For example, as soil moisture Sub grade strength has the greatest effect in determining increases the load bearing capacity of the soil decreases and the pavement thickness. As a general rule, weaker sub grades require soil can heave and swell. Temperature also effects the load thicker asphalt layers to adequately bear different loads associated bearing capacity of pavements. When the moisture in pavement with different uses. The bearing capacity and permeability of the freezes and thaws, it creates stress leading to pavement heaving. sub grade influences total pavement thickness. There are actually The detrimental effects of moisture can be reduced or eliminated two or three separate layers or courses below the paved wearing by: keeping it from entering the pavement base, removing it before surface including: the sub grade, sub base and base.

This paper integrates ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic induction (EMI) methods for simultaneous estimation of rebar diameter and cover thickness. A prototype of GPR-EMI dual sensor is developed, and a calibration experiment is conducted to collect a standard EMI dataset corresponding to various rebar diameters and cover thicknesses. The handheld testing cart can synchronously collect both GPR and EMI data when moving on the concrete surface, from which a data processing algorithm is proposed to simultaneously estimate the rebar diameter and cover thickness. Firstly, by extracting the apex of the hyperbolic reflection from the rebar in the preprocessed GPR profile, the rebar position is determined and further used to extract the effective EMI curve.

    “Stone Pavements” (on Broadway in New York City, New York) In The Manufacturer and Builder, Vol. 1, No. 7 July 1869, pp. 194 This article, which begins on the next page, is presented on the Stone Quarries and Beyond web site. http://quarriesandbeyond.org/ Peggy B. Perazzo Email: [email protected] July 2013 “Stone Pavements” (on Broadway in New York City, New York) In The Manufacturer and Builder, Vol. 1, No. 7, July 1869, pp. 194 “A pavement answering all possible requirements being a total impossibility, the main consideration comes to be, the sort of travel on the road. The Romans, looking only to durability, used heavy granite or basalt blocks, and many such pavements, constructed two thousand years ago, are still in good condition, though they are not what is wanted now. Durability may, to a certain extent, be sacrificed for more desirable qualities. It was a great mistake to lay the Russ pavement in Broadway; it is nothing but an imitation of the ancient Roman streets, and heavy, uninterrupted travel makes such pavements so smooth that it is cruelty to drive a horse over them. Where the travel is not so heavy, as is the case in the streets of Rome, the atmospheric influences prevent this polishing of the surface, and the pavement is not so objectionable. The common cobble-stone pavement, when the stones are not too large, gives a better foot-hold to the horses, and is, when well laid, very durable for light travel; but as the stones all lie with the most pointed part downward, they have a tendency to sink under heavy pressure; and the points being unequal in length and differing in degree of tapering, they will sink unequally.

  • Surface Pavement Materials Used Ion Urban Areas
    Session 4 - Specific techniques and innovation Paper : Pavement surface materials used in urban areas Authors : Egbert BEUVING (EAPA) - Netherlands Jean-Paul MICHAUT (COLAS) - France Pavement surface materials used in urban areas -The range of urban materials- Egbert Beuving (EAPA) and Jean-Paul Michaut (COLAS) Summary A wide variety of pavement surface materials have been used in urban areas. The choice of the surface material depends on a range of rational and irrational arguments. In former days the availability of the materials was a dominant factor. Nowadays a broad scale of materials is available and functional requirements play an important role in the decision for a certain pavement type and surface layer now. The materials available are: • Bituminous bound materials (asphalt concrete, mastic asphalt) • Cement bound materials (concrete, concrete elements) • (Small) paving elements (block pavers, modular materials, stone, terracotta) • Composite pavements (a combination of the above mentioned ones) In urban areas there is a wide variety of pavement users, as there are: pedestrians, wheelchair- users, parents with prams, roller-skates, bicyclists, scoot-mobiles, motorists, passenger cars and trucks. The choice of the surface material depends on the (functional) requirements. Some of these requirements are the same as for highways; other ones might depend on the local situation. Additional requirements for urban areas might be a certain surface texture or colour for a certain image, easy to repair to guarantee the accessibility of houses, shops and other buildings, noise reducing, open for water infiltration, smooth to avoid vibrations and easy to open for accessing sewerage, gas and water systems. There might also be a need for flexible materials for creating ramps, roundabouts, cables and wiring.
