Other Important Considerations in Overlay Design

BCOA vs. “Whitetopping” Whitetopping (h > 6 in.)

More conventional slab sizes (6ft to 15ft)

30+ years experience

Ignores interface bond (unbonded)

Bonded Concrete Overlay Asphalt (h ≤ 6 in.) 20+ years experience (1991)

Smaller slab sizes (≤ 6ft)

Concrete/AC bond is essential

Why use smaller slab sizes?

1.2m 1.2m1.2m>2m

•Interface bond assumption (BCOA)-Reduce de-bonding of concrete and asphalt at early ages

•Short slab sizes reduce bending and curling stresses

Unbonded Overlay Option

“Whitetopping”

Pavement evaluation establishes whether existing concrete and subbase can provide uniform support and, if not, what actions are necessary to obtain that uniformity.

Look for movement in the slab. Profile is a good check.
