Abstract:
A series of sprinkle treatment sections were placed on US 59 in Lufkin, Texas. The materials placed were: 1) precoated rhyolite, 2) non-precoated rhyolite, 3) precoated sandstone, and 4) precoated lightweight. The study monitored the performance of both hot and cold ambient air temperature, placement of the various aggregates by the sprinkle treatment procedure, and assessed the use of non-precoated sprinkle aggregate. The surfaces were evaluated over a 3-year period by skid tests and visual evaluations.
