In addition to several curves with radii ranging from 100 to 500 ft, there
were seven valley gutters that were installed after the main-line paving
using traditional cast-in-place concrete paving methods. The use of
broom-finished RCC allowed for the subdivision streets to be opened
within a week of installation.
The project consisted of about 112,000 SY of 8 in. RCC and
approximately 62,500 SY of 9.5 in. RCC. E&B developed a proprietary
aggregate blend for use in the RCC, using the Shilstone method and
the 0.45 power chart as references for the combined gradation.
A rigorous QA/QC program meant that over 20,000 SY of selective
airfield concrete pavement removal and replacement on the cargo
apron, commercial apron, and associated taxiways was completed in
119 days—12 days ahead of schedule—with no corrective actions or
non-conformance reports issued.

The paving subcontractor had 40 working days each for eastbound
and westbound lanes to reconstruct over 102,000 SY of jointed plain
concrete pavement. A decision to pave the inside shoulder integrally
with the mainline—making the inside shoulder 10.5 in. thick rather than
7 in. thick—improved pavement performance and saved at least 10
working days.
The 16-mile long reconstruction and expansion of US 36 included
1,300,000 SY of mostly 10 in. dowelled concrete pavement, as well as
more than 2,800,000 CY of embankment, 17 bridges, underground utilities,
and sound walls. Other features included express lanes (HOV/toll lanes), a
diverging diamond interchange, a bikeway, and other features.

The rehabilitation of Runway 13-31 at Virgil I. Grissom Municipal Airport
in Bedford, IN with an 8 in. concrete overlay was an alternate bid
project. It was completed with minimal impact to the crosswind runway
and in time for the Senior PGA Championship.
After moving more almost 300,000 CY of rock and other site material
to create a spot on the mountainside, the site was stabilized and more
than 31,000 SY of dowel jointed concrete pavement and 4,400 SY of
jointed plain concrete pavement were placed.
