Abstract

During the last 10-20 years, highway engineering responsibilities have shifted from concentration on new construction to rehabilitation. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation has gained considerable experience during this period. This manual synthesizes published guidelines, standards, procedures, and the accumulated knowledge and experience of key individuals within the Department into a manageable, easy-to-use technical manual on highway rehabilitation in Pennsylvania. The manual is organized into two parts: rehabilitation procedures and rehabilitation techniques. Part I explains how rehabilitation projects fit into the overall program of the Department and how projects are identified, designed, and constructed. Part II provides detailed information on specific activities, or techniques, for the rehabilitation of pavements, bridges, and roadside and drainage features.
