Lindy Paving Earns Record-Setting Sixth Sheldon G. Hayes Award With I-90 Work

Antigo Construction is proud to have performed the concrete pavement rubblization for Lindy Paving on the National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA) awarded project on I-90 in Pennsylvania. Please see page 28 in the Spring 2025 issue of NAPA Quarterly for details of this large and successful project.

Interstate Highway Rubblization Projects by State, 1996-2024

List of projects

Caltrans Plans for Perpetual Pavements

California Department of Transportation project on I-5 in Sacramento County utilized concrete pavement crack & seat and asphalt overlay to build a perpetual pavement.

Perpetual Pavement Practices Convert Concrete Interstates in Illinois

Illinois DOT project on I-70 in Clark County that won a Perpetual Pavement Award in the By Conversion category utilized concrete pavement rubblization and asphalt overlay.

Tennessee DOT Uses Innovation to Rebuild Nashville’s I-440

This very successful Design-Build project converted a deteriorated concrete pavement into a new asphalt pavement utilizing concrete rubblization.

Rubblization Practices Evaluated in Illinois

A recently released report out of the University of Illinois Center for Transportation entitled “Performance of Interstate Rubblization in Illinois” summarizes the performance of rubblized pavements on the Illinois interstate system over the last two decades.

Performance of Interstate Rubblization in Illinois, FHWA-ICT-21-005

This Illinois Center for Transportation (ICT) report summarizes the performance of several interstate rubblizing projects in Illinois by analyzing available data in Illinois Department of Transportation’s pavement management system. The report finds that, overall, rubblization is providing good to excellent performance and exceeding design expectations.

Rubblization Gives New Life to Dying Roads Nationwide

Departments of Transportation across the country are seeing that rubblization is a key tactic for bringing new life to aging concrete pavements.

Rubblize to Rehabilitate – West Virginia

Through the monitoring of pavement conditions in West Virginia, the DOH has documented that the warranty pavements, using rubblization, are out-performing traditional full depth new construction pavements.

I-70 Extended Life Pavement Performance

Mechanistic Design Data from ODOT Instrumented Pavement Sites – Phase II Report

This investigation examined data obtained from three previously-instrumented pavement test sites in Oregon. Data processing algorithms and templates were developed for each test site that facilitated full processing of all the data to build databases representing each site. Investigation of site data found that most of the collected data could be successfully processed and observed trends in the data were as expected (e.g., seasonal changes affected pavement response). The location that compared rubblized base to aggregate base clearly demonstrated the effect of the rubblized base through a 50% reduction in strain at the bottom of the asphalt layer. Further investigations of the data may be warranted and user's guides provided in this report will enable those investigations to proceed by ODOT staff.
