Procedure for Upgrading Deteriorated Theather of Operations (TO) Pavement Facilities

This study was conducted to develop expedient procedures for assessing the structural and functional adequacy of existing pavement systems in the theater of operations (TO) and to provide guidance for upgrading inadequate or deteriorated facilities to meet operational requirements. This instruction report presents simplified procedures for the evaluation of existing pavements and alternate expedient procedures for upgrading the pavement systems where required. The construction procedures and techniques described herein have been validated in prototype pavement structures or in special test sections that were designed, constructed, and traffic tested to validate various construction techniques and procedures for upgrading deteriorated pavement structures.
