1 Executive SummaryDescription<strong>Resin</strong> modified pavement (RMP) is a composite pavement surfacing that usesa unique combination of asphalt concrete (AC) and portland cementconcrete (PCC) materials in the same layer. The RMP material is generallydescribed as an open-graded asphalt concrete mixture containing 25- to35-percent voids which are filled with a resin modified portland cement grout.The open-graded asphalt mixture and resin modified cement grout are producedand placed separately. The open-graded mixture is produced in a typicalasphalt concrete plant and placed with standard asphalt paving equipment.After the open-graded layer has cooled, the slurry grout is poured onto theporous surfacing and vibrated into the internal voids. The RMP layer is typically50 mm (2 in.) thick and has a surface appearance similar to a roughtexturedPCC.ApplicationsThe RMP process is applicable to new pavement construction as well as rehabilitationof existing pavement structures. A new RMP layer may beG - 6
placed as an overlay over existing flexible or rigid pavements. The RMP issuitable to carry heavy and abrasive traffic loads and it is resistant to damagefrom fuel and chemical spills. Successful RMP applications are documented forvarious low-speed traffic areas, such as airport aprons and taxiways, lowspeedroadways, industrial and warehouse floorings, fuel depots, railways stations, andport facilities.BenefitsRMP provides a tough and durable pavement surface that resists ruttingcaused by heavy channelized traffic loads, surface abrasion caused by trackedvehicle traffic, and deterioration due to fuel spillage. The jointless surface issimple to construct and requires little to no maintenance effort. Performancerecords in the United States indicate that RMP is suitable for practically anyenvironmental condition.LimitationsRMP should only be used for relatively low-speed traffic applications. Thesurface texture can be irregular, resulting in areas of variable skid resistance.The irregular surface texture can also be unsightly when compared to a typicalPCC surfacing with a relatively uniform surface texture. Construction experienceis somewhat limited, which causes paving production rates to start offslowly at the beginning of most projects.CostsThe cost of a 50-mm-thick RMP layer is currently about $9.60 to 19.20 persquare meter ($8 to 16 per square yard) as compared to a typical cost of $3.60 to6.00 per square meter ($3 to 5 per square yard) for a 50-mm-thick layer of densegradedAC. The initial cost of a full-depth RMP design is generally 50 to80 percent higher than a comparable AC design when considering a heavy-dutypavement. A more important cost comparison is between the RMP design andthe rigid pavement design, since the RMP is usually used as a cost-savingalternative to the standard PCC pavement. In the case of a standard militaryheavy-duty pavement application, the RMP design is generally 30 to 60 percentless in initial cost than a comparable PCC pavement design. In many circum-G - 7
