29、 a test in the field requires assembling and setting the fiberglass rail (orienting) system that the scanning devicetravels on parallel to the joint that contains dowel bars across the joint. See Fig. 2 for orientation on the joint. Care should be takento ensure that the x- and y coordinate -coordin

30、ate starting points are correctly established. The x coordinate -coordinate orientationis referenced to the edge of pavement or lane. The y coordinate -coordinate is referenced to joint centerline. The rail (orienting)system should be clearly marked to aid in locating these critical references. The

31、data collection device input should also beperformed during the set-up phase where the location of the test is identified by highway number, cardinal direction (North, South,East or West),(north, south, east, or west), lane number, project stationing, and joint number. It is important to check the d

32、owelbar size selected in the data collector software since it contains the scanner specific scanner-specific calibration file for the dowelbar size selected and is used by the measurement algorithms. In addition, the operator should input project specificationFIG. 2 Rail (Orienting) SystemE3013/E301

33、3M 173requirements of design depth of dowel bars, tolerances for bar misalignment, and side shift. The operator should check thecommunication connection between the data collector and scanner prior to starting the data collection.4.2 Prior to starting the test, the operator should inspect the adjace

34、nt area within 10 ft 3 m of the rail (orienting) system forany metallic objects that could interfere with the quality of data taken. Metallic interferences can be vehicles, equipment, tools,underground duct banks, pipes, direct buried cables, and safety shoes with metal. Metal objects such as reinfo

35、rcing structural steelin barriers or guardrail systems near the end of the rail (orienting) system can affect the edge of pavement results such asreinforcing structural steel in barriers or guardrail systems. edge-of-pavement results. Metallic items that cannot be removed fromthe test area should be

36、 noted for inclusion in the report during the analysis period.4.3 The scanner should be inspected daily prior to the start of testing to make sure that its wheels roll freely, its battery is fullycharged, and that there is less than 18 in. (approximately 3 mm) of lateral movement on the rail (orient

37、ing) system.4.4 The test begins with the operator pulling or pushing the scanning device along the rail (orienting) system at walking speed.The scanner movement should be smooth and constant to avoid causing the scanner to jump or lurch forward on the rail system.The operator should stand to one sid

38、e of the rail (orienting) system to avoid the tripping hazard from the crossties.After the scannertravels the length of the joint or the test area, the operator should review the results shown on the data collector. Field results shoulddisplay as a minimum a color map showing each dowel bar, and the

39、 following quantitative data x coordinate -coordinate location,depth of dowel bar.4.5 The data should be transferred from the field data collector to the users personal computer that contains the manufacturersproprietary software used to further refine the results. The software allows interpretation

40、 and adjustment analysis to produceaccurate results. The software should produce reports and summaries that are suitable for quality control records.4.6 The PC software performs data management for the test data files and reports, and produces maps and summary output files.After selecting a data fil

41、e for analysis, the measurement algorithm is initiated to calculate the dowel bar x-coordinate,x-coordinate,depth from surface of the concrete, horizontal mis-alignment,misalignment, vertical mis-alignment,misalignment, and minimumconcrete coverage at the dowel bar end closest to the top of concrete

42、. From the measurement data deviation from design depth,deviation from the y-coordinatey (side-shift)-coordinate (side-shift), and composite misalignment (a calculation of combiningx-coordinatex-coordinate and y-coordinatey-coordinate misalignments) are calculated. The software should be able to com

43、pare theproject specification limits inputted by the operator to the calculated measurements, and highlights deviations outside of the limits.The software should allow the operator to block-out block out strongly deviating values due to the physical location of the barbeing outside of the operating

44、limits for achieving the stated accuracy tolerances.4.7 The PC software provides signal results quality indicators for the 3three interior sensors collecting the electrical signal.These indicators, used in conjunction with the signal curves allowscurves, allow the operator to detect interferences in

45、 the test area.Once a disturbance is detected then the operator should evaluate the cause of the disturbance, such as a tie or thin bar in thelongitudinal joint, and decide whether to do one of the following: (1) insert a value for a dowel bar, (2) delete a value for a dowelbar, or (3) do nothing an

46、d just note the interference. Insertion or deletion of dowel bars does not alter the original data file nor theoriginal results. It does allow for compensation within the algorithms to more accurately reflect the true position of the bars in thejoint. The quality indicators should guide the operator

47、 in this processprocess; with each successive insertion or deletion the qualityvalues should improve.4.8 The PC software should produce output files capable of being printed as a colored map showing the dowel bars in the joint,a plan and section view with project specification tolerance limits, valu

48、es for x-coordinates,x-coordinates, depth, y-coordinatey-coordinate deviation (side shift), horizontal and vertical misalignments. A project information box with location and joint numbershould also be included. The section view of the map should also show the location of both ends of the bar (left

49、and right) versusthe tolerance limits.4.9 The PC software should produce a data file that is compatible with commercially available spreadsheet software such asMicrosoft Excel that shows project information and measurements and calculations listed above in 4.5.5. Significance and Use5.1 Joints in concrete pavements of highways, airfields, and other facilities are exposed to stresses and strains due to traffic andtemperature variation.
