Effect of Different Compaction Methods on Bridge Pavement

Abstract:

In order to analyze the influence of different compaction methods on bridge deck vibration and bridge pavement compaction quality, the field test and laboratory test of oscillating compaction and vibrating compaction were carried out. The results demonstrated bridge deck vibration caused by the intrinsic exciting force of compactor contributed to vibrating compaction. On the pattern of oscillating compaction, the disturbance of bridge deck due to the exciting force of compactor is the main factor to induce bridge vibration. Furthermore, the vibration acceleration and amplitude in lateral, longitudinal and vertical direction, oscillating compaction are much smaller than that of vibrating compaction. Compared with vibrating compaction, the rolling efficiency of oscillating compaction is obviously higher and the final compaction degree also is much higher. Besides that, phenomenon of crushing the coarse aggregate is exists in the compaction construction, in which the effect of vibrating compaction on crushing the coarse aggregate is more obvious than oscillating compaction, and the range of crushing the coarse aggregate caused by vibratory compaction is larger than oscillating compaction.
