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.
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.
