CPR: Rebuilt to Last: Geiger Ready Mix parking lot, Olathe, KS

Pervious concrete pavement at Geiger Ready Mix Parking Lot in Olathe, Kansas, was restored using diamond grinding to address surface raveling issues. The method successfully restored the surface texture and improved pavement performance. This approach proved to be effective for long-term use. The results indicate that diamond grinding is a viable solution for enhancing pervious concrete surfaces without necessitating complete removal and replacement.

CPR: Rebuilt to Last: A progressive concrete pavement preservation strategy improves city streets in Minneapolis

City streets in Minneapolis benefited from the implementation of concrete pavement preservation (CPP) techniques. The strategy focused on rehabilitating structurally sound residential streets using methods such as diamond grinding, dowel bar retrofit (DBR), full depth repair (FDR), partial depth repair (PDR), cross/slot stitching, joint resealing, and crack resealing. This approach was chosen for its sustainability and cost-effectiveness, enhancing road safety and extending pavement lifespan by up to 25 years.

CPR: Rebuilt to Last: Pavement rehabilitation in Jamestown, MD

U.S. Highway 281 in Jamestown, North Dakota, underwent concrete pavement rehabilitation methods to extend pavement life and minimize disruptions. Full and partial depth repair, joint resealing and diamond grinding were implemented to restore structural integrity and performance. These measures ensured cost savings, extended pavement life by 15 to 20 years, and minimized disruptions to local traffic and businesses. The project, completed two months ahead of schedule, demonstrated the benefits of targeted pavement preservation techniques.
