Dear Mr. Guzman:

Willmer Engineering Inc. (Willmer) is pleased to provide this Existing Pavement Evaluation report for

Chattahoochee Drive in Duluth, Gwinnett County, Georgia. The work was performed based on

information provided to us by Clark Patterson Lee (CPL) via email correspondence, and in general

accordance with our subcontract with CPL dated September 26, 2016 and the Georgia Department of

Transportation (GDOT) guidance documents for existing pavement evaluation.

The attached summary presents the existing pavement conditions along the project alignment and our

recommendations for pavement design. The pavement design is based on traffic data provided to us by

CPL. The GDOT Pavement Design Tool Version 2.0 computer program was used for the pavement

design.

1. Location /

Description

This project consists of proposed street resurfacing of Chattahoochee Drive

within the Chattahoochee Reserve Subdivision, located in the City of Duluth in

Gwinnett County, Georgia. The proposed street resurfacing options include mill

and inlay/overlay and/or full-depth reclamation. The resurfacing options are

discussed and analyzed in further detail later in this report.

This existing pavement evaluation involves the portion of Chattahoochee Drive

north of its intersection with Peachtree Industrial Boulevard (SR 141). The length

of the project is approximately one third of a mile. GDOT station numbers for

Chattahoochee Drive were not available; therefore, locations along

Chattahoochee Drive are referenced relative to its intersection with other roads

or relative to home numbers along Chattahoochee Drive. A project location map

is presented in Figure 1.

The existing Chattahoochee Drive is a two-lane road with curb and gutter.

For the purpose of this evaluation, the project length was divided into three

segments, as listed below:

Rating

Segment No. Description of Rating Segment

1 From intersection with Peachtree Industrial Boulevard to

intersection with Tallapoosa Road

2 From intersection with Tallapoosa Road to house at 1955

Chattahoochee Drive

3 From 1955 Chattahoochee Drive to north end of project.

The roadway and pavement core sample locations are presented in Figure 2.

2. Historical

Data

A historical data search was performed during this study. The GDOT TransPI

website was searched for available existing pavement data for this project. No

pavement as-built or maintenance data for Chattahoochee Drive was found in

this search.

Based on historic Google Earth aerial photographs, it appears that the

Chattahoochee Reserve Subdivision was constructed between 1993 and 1999. It

is noted that a different color asphalt was observed during our pavement

evaluation between 1975 Chattahoochee Drive and the north end of the street

and the same color is also present in the 1999 aerial photograph; therefore, the

color change does not indicate a resurfacing of the roadway.

Based on the site visit, there are several short segments (each less than 100 feet)

of Chattahoochee Drive between the intersection with Peachtree Industrial

Boulevard and Tallapoosa Drive which have been patched or resurfaced.

Historical Google Earth aerial photographs indicate resurfacing at one segment

was performed between 2008 and 2010 and additional resurfacing appears to

have been performed between May 2014 and August 2015.

3. Traffic Data

Design traffic data for Chattahoochee Drive was provided to us by CPL. The

following traffic data was used for pavement design:

Chattahoochee Drive

Design Period 2016 to 2036

One-Way AADT in 2016 2,900 vpd

One-Way AADT in 2036 2,900 vpd

Lane Distribution Factor 1.0

24-hour Truck Percentage 0.5% (0.5% S.U. and 0% M.U.)

4. Field

Photographs

Photographs were taken at the time of our fieldwork to record the existing

pavement conditions. These photographs are included in Appendix I.

5. Drainage

Survey

Based on our field reconnaissance, the roadway drainage was in good condition.

No standing water or other drainage problems were observed during this survey.

6. Non-

destructive

Field Testing

No non-destructive tests were performed.

7. Rutting No rutting was observed.

8. Load

Cracking

Load cracking with varying levels of severity was observed along the alignment.

The most severe load cracking was observed in the roadway section between

Tallapoosa Road to 1955 Chattahoochee Drive (i.e., rating segment 2). In the

100-foot representative sample section of this rating segment, Level 1 and Level 2

load cracking were observed. The load cracking percentage for the rating

segment is presented in Table 1.

9. Block/

Transverse

Cracking

Level 1 transverse cracking was observed at approximately 10% of the 100-foot

representative sample section of rating segment 2. Transverse cracking was not

observed at the other two rating segments. The location and block/transverse

cracking percentages are presented in Table 1.

10. Reflection

Cracking

No reflection cracking was observed.

11. Raveling Level 1 raveling (50%) was observed in rating segment 2. The level and

percentage of raveling are presented in Table 1.

12. Edge Distress Edge distress (10%) was observed in rating segment 2. The level and percentage

of edge distress are presented in Table 1.

13. Bleeding or

Flushing

No bleeding or flushing was observed.

14. Corrugation

or Pushing

No corrugation or pushing was observed.

15. Loss of

Section

No loss of section was observed.

16. Patches,

Potholes,

and Local

Base Failures

A total of 8 patches/potholes were observed between the intersection of

Peachtree Industrial Boulevard to the intersection with Tallapoosa Road (rating

segment 1) and a total of four patches/potholes were observed between the

intersection of Tallapoosa Road to 1955 Chattahoochee Drive (rating segment 2).

No patches/potholes were observed north of 1955 Chattahoochee Drive (rating

segment 3). No local base failures were observed in any of the rating segments.

This information is summarized in Table 1.

17. Cores The existing pavement was cored at three locations within the project limits and

samples of the subgrade soil were recovered and transported to a laboratory for

classification using ASTM D2487. The type and thickness of existing pavement and

base materials at each location are summarized in Table 2 and the laboratory

results are included in Appendix II. Core sample photographs are included in

Appendix III. As shown in Table 2, the pavement thickness ranged from 2.5 to 3.5

inches. No base material was encountered at any of the core locations.

18. Pavement

Condition

Summary

The pavement surface condition rating for this project was performed in general

accordance with GDOT Pavement Condition Evaluation System (PACES). The

PACES-based ratings for Chattahoochee Drive are 65, 56, and 76, for rating

segments 1, 2, and 3, respectively.

19. Asphalt

Pavement

Design

Based on the surface condition rating, the existing pavement on Chattahoochee

Drive is generally in poor to fair condition. We understand that the city would like

to do a full depth reclamation (FDR) to improvement pavement. Based on the

results of our evaluation, we assess that FDR can be used on this project.

However, since the existing pavement is relatively thin and no base material is

presented under the pavement, some GAB will need to be added during the FDR

process. The recommended FDR process is described below.

Page 7: EXISTING PAVEMENT EVALUATION

Chattahoochee Drive

Duluth, Gwinnett County, Georgia

Willmer Project No. 71.4166

Page 5

Full Depth Reclamation

The FDR process consists of pulverizing the existing asphalt pavement, blending it

with underlying base and/or subgrade, mixing the blended material with cement

or foamed asphalt, and compacting it in place to provide a stabilized base. A new

asphalt or concrete pavement layer is then constructed atop the stabilized

surface.

To provide an adequate pavement section for the design traffic load, the existing

asphalt and about 3 inches of underlying soil should be pulverized, blended, and

mixed with an appropriate amount of cement or foamed asphalt, and compacted

in place to form a 6-inch thick stabilized base. Some GAB may need to be added

and blended into the base during the reclamation process to achieve the required

strength since no existing base course is present under the pavement. Upon

completion of the FDR, a 3.25-inch thick layer of asphalt pavement will be

constructed on top of the FDR base. The resulting 9.25-inch thick pavement

section will be about 6% underdesigned.

It should be noted that the resulting pavement surface will be about 3 inches

higher than the existing pavement grade. The pavement surface can be sloped at

the edges to match the existing concrete gutter. An output from the GDOT

Pavement Design Tool 2.0 is included in Appendix IV.
