Pavement Noise

Microsurface mix, or microsurfacing, can be used for sealing and providing a friction surface for cracked and deteriorated surface mixes. This mix, essentially consisting of 9.5-mm (0.37-in.) screenings bonded by a polymer-modified asphalt emulsion, is economical and can be placed very swiftly. Microsurfacing is also aesthetically pleasing because of its resemblance to hot-mix asphalt. In 1990–1991, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) successfully used microsurfacing in a test section on I-75 in Henry County, which had high traffic volumes and a heavy truck concentration. Two varieties of the mix were used, and both showed little deterioration after 2 years. In 1996, GDOT opted to use microsurfacing for a 9.2-km (5.7-mi) section of I-285 in Atlanta between Conley Road and Old National Highway. This 92 lane-km (57-lane-mi) project was initiated to address the raveling and cracking in the section and improve its appearance before the 1996 summer Olympics. The I-285 project began in late May 1996 and was completed in 1 month. The microsurfacing used on I-285 has performed quite well since the project was completed. No additional problems with raveling or load cracking have been encountered. The mix has provided excellent smoothness and good friction, with a minimal increase in pavement noise levels. Microsurfacing may be suitable for use on cracked pavements in lieu of more conventional rehabilitation methods such as crack sealing, leveling, and double surface treatments.

ABSTRACT Herbicide tank mixes are often used to reduce peanut injury caused by paraquat and broaden the weed control spectrum. New peanut cultivars are continuously being introduced therefore determining tolerance to paraquat based herbicide programs is essential to provide growers with appropriate recommendations. The objective of this trial was to evaluate effect of paraquat based herbicide programs on newer peanut cultivars growth and yield. Field trials were conducted in Macon, Henry and Baldwin counties in Alabama in 2016 and 2017 and the peanut cultivars ‘Georgia 06G', ‘Georgia 12Y', ‘Georgia 14N', and ‘TufRunner 511’ were evaluated. Paraquat was applied alone (210, 280, 420 g ai/ha), in tank mixes with either bentazon plus acifluorfen or 2,4-DB and one of the following, S-metolachlor, pyroxasulfone, acetochlor, or pyroxasulfone plus carfentrazone at the highest labeled rates 3 to 4 wk after peanut planting. No cultivar by treatment interactions were observed for any growth parameters evaluated for any location. In 2017, paraquat either applied at 280 g ai/ha alone, tank mixed with S-metolachlor plus 2,4-DB, or with S-metolachlor plus bentazon plus acifluorfen significantly reduced canopy widths of 22 to 30%, 12 to 22%, and 20 to 37% respectively at 45 to 48 DAP when compared to the non-treated check (NTC). Yield reductions compared to the NTC were rare, paraquat plus bentazon plus acifluorfen plus pyroxasulfone plus carfentrazone had a 13% yield loss in Henry County and a 7% yield loss with paraquat 280 g ai/ha at Baldwin County in 2016 only. Data indicates peanut stunting may be observed following applications of paraquat tank mixes evaluated in this study, but it is unlikely these effects result in yield loss.
