2、dard Specification for Asphalt Tack Coat Design AASHTO Designation: PP 93-18 Technical Section: 2a, Emulsified Asphalt Release: Group 3 (August) 1. SCOPE 1.1. This standard determines an application rate for emulsified asphalt or performance-graded (PG) asphalt binder for tack coats. 1.2. A tack coa

3、t is the application of an emulsified asphalt or performance-graded (PG) asphalt binder, to an existing pavement surface just prior to placement of a pavement overlay course. The tack coat is used to ensure a good bond between an existing asphalt or concrete pavement and a pavement overlay course, b

This standard may be used to select the residual asphalt application quantity of the asphalt material required for the construction of an asphalt tack

6、coat. Consult with the asphalt tack coat material supplier for their recommended application temperatures, material cure time to reduce material tracking, and unique handling requirements of their product type or grade. Note 1Many agencies use “special purpose” tack applications that yield much high

7、er bond strengths, reduce tracking, and allow tack coat materials to be applied at much higher rates. Examples include hot-applied materials, non-tracking tack coats, and tack coats applied through a spray paver. These applications may be proprietary and should be specified through local agency stan

8、dards. 3.2. Tack coats are applied to a number of different pavement surface types (Table 1). The application rate for a PG binder will be equivalent to the residual asphalt rate. Materials specifications for tack coats can be found in MP 36. 3.2.1. When using slow-setting emulsified asphalt, dilute

10、2 AASHTO water or a compatible surfactant solution to the manufactured emulsified asphalt before application. Control of dilution is essential for calculating residual asphalt, as well as for achieving ultimate bond strength. It is suggested that dilution occur at the emulsion terminal and not in th

11、e field, which would allow for greater control and ability to properly verify dilution ratios. 3.2.2. Do not dilute rapid-setting or quick-setting emulsified asphalt for tack coat applications, unless otherwise specified by the purchasing agency. Provide a final product that is a fluid and homogeneo

12、us material that does not plug distributor nozzles. Note 2Ensure that emulsified asphalt residual application rates on the roadway are still satisfied after dilution. 3.3. Apply tack coats to existing paved surfaces, including new or existing asphalt mixtures, milled surfaces, portland cement concre

13、te, cold- or hot-in-place recycled mixtures, and vertical surfaces to which a new layer will be placed adjacent, such as curbs, gutters, and construction joints. The material application rates will vary with the type and condition of the existing pavement course to which the tack coat material is ap

14、plied. 4. ASPHALT TACK COAT DESIGN REQUIREMENTS 4.1. Material Quantities: 4.1.1. The tack coat application rate varies with the condition of the existing surface to which it is applied. In general, a tight or dense surface requires less tack coat than an open-textured, raveled, or milled surface. An

15、 existing flushed or bleeding surface or a new surface requires less tack coat than an existing dry or aged surface. The proper application rate also varies with the type of tack coat material used and the asphalt mixture that will be placed as an overlay. Overlays of dense-graded mixtures and gap-g

16、raded mixtures, including Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA), require less tack coat than overlays of open-graded friction course (OGFC) mixtures. Because emulsified asphalt contains water, the tack coat application rate used by contractors is higher in order to achieve the minimum residual asphalt rate. Me

17、asurement and payment for emulsified asphalt used as tack coat are based on volume or weight (residual asphalt and water). Therefore, the estimated quantity of tack coat needed should be based on the residual asphalt rate to help eliminate confusion about dilution. 4.1.2. Design a tack coat by selec

18、ting a tack coat material in accordance with Table 2 unless otherwise required by the purchasing agency. When emulsified asphalt is selected as the tack coat material, select a specific type of emulsified asphalt (e.g., CSS-1) meeting the requirements of MP 36 unless otherwise specified by the purch

19、asing agency. When performance-graded asphalt binder is selected as the tack coat material, select a specific grade of performance-graded asphalt binder (e.g., PG 64-22 or PG 64E-22) meeting the requirements of M 320 or M 332 unless otherwise specified by the purchasing agency. When a Special Purpos

20、e material is selected as the Tack Coat material, select the specific type or grade of Special Purpose material meeting the requirements as specified by the purchasing agency. 4.1.3. Design residual asphalt and application rates for emulsified asphalt material are to conform to the residual asphalt

21、rates and the emulsified asphalt application rates shown in Table 1 unless otherwise specified by the purchasing agency. Design application rates for PG asphalt binder material are to conform to the residual asphalt rates shown in Table 1 unless otherwise specified by the purchasing agency. Design a
