Guide for Roller-Compacted Concrete Pavements Abstract Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is an economical, fast-construction candidate for many pavement applications. It has traditionally been used for pavements carrying heavy loads in low-speed areas because of its relatively course surface.

Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is an economical, fast construction candidate for many pavement applications. Because of its relatively coarse surface, RCC has tradition-ally been used for pavements carrying heavy loads in low-speed areas. In recent years, however, its use in commercial areas and for local streets and highways is increasing.
RCC is placed in a single lift when the compacted thickness of the RCC is 8 in. or less. For compacted thickness greater than 8 in, RCC is typically placed in two or more lifts that are bonded, so as to behave monolithically. The cementitious materials used in the RCC mixture (about 13 to 15% by total weight of the concrete) are of the same order as
RCC is typically allowed to crack naturally, with spacing in the range of 20 to 60 ft (6.1 to 18.3 m), and the load transfer occurs through aggregate interlock. Studies have shown that a load transfer of 10% could be used for RCC pavements (Pittman 1996).
Feb 24, 2015 Abstract. Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is an economical, fast-construction candidate for many pavement applications. It has traditionally been used for pavements carrying heavy loads in low-speed areas because of its relatively course surface. However, in recent years its use in commercial areas and for local streets and highways has been increasing.
4.1 Roller Compacted Concrete Constituents RCC is generally produced by mixing aggregate cement, pozzolan, and water. Occasionally, admixtures will be introduced into the RCC in order to modify a particular behavior. The following sections briefly describe each constituent and provide guidelines for inspection and testing of each. Details regarding test
Apr 07, 2021 Roller Compacted Concrete is a kind of concrete that contains fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, cement, and water. In addition, additives like fly ash may be added as per the requirement of the project. Therefore, the material types used in RCC are the same as other types of concrete.
Roller Compacted Concrete pavement is best described as a zero slump concrete that is placed with standard or high-density paving equipment and consolidated/compacted using steel-drum or rubber-tired rollers to achieve a durable, wear resistant surface. Roller-Compacted Concrete pavements were first used in the 1970s for stabilization of logging roads in the US and Canada.

Roller-compacted concrete, or RCC, takes its name from the construction method used to build it. Its placed with conventional or high-density asphalt paving equipment,then compacted with rollers. Roller-compacted concrete has the same basic ingredient as conventional concrete cement, water, and aggregates, such as gravel or crushed stone.
the mat being compacted otherwise the rubber tires will pick up some of the mix from the mat. So when using a pneumatic roller, dont allow the roller to sit and wait for long periods of time as the tires will cool. The final roller in the train is a static steel wheel roller for finish rolling. The primary

Whereas, a roller-compacted concrete pavement built to replace a failed pavement on a major route may require reaching 2,500 psi compressive strength and be opened for traffic within one or two days from placement. Different mixes of roller-compacted concrete can be designed to meet the different requirements of the two applications.
Thickness Design of a Roller-Compacted Concrete Composite Pavement System Many agencies continue to investigate ways of optimizing pavement designs to save money while still providing a durable pavement structure. One such structure that is gaining popularity is the use of roller-compacted concrete (RCC) base with a hot-mix asphalt (HMA) overlay.

Tarmac Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) is a durable and fast construction solution for heavy duty pavements. Roller Compacted Concrete gets its name from the method of construction used to place the material. Just like asphalt, it is laid by paver and then roller compacted. RCC is designed to a target grading and low water content.
