ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THE CURRENT METHODS OF ASPHALT PAVEMENT REPAIR

Vadym Nevinhlovskyi Oleksandr Klimashevskiy

Abstract

In the current conditions of reducing the volume of works on construction, reconstruction and repair of public roads, operational maintenance comes first as the only tool to ensure proper operational condition of roads and comfortable and safe traffic conditions. Given the lack of enough budgetary resources and the irregularity of available funding, there is an urgent need for balanced decisions on the use of a particular pavement repair technology, taking into account all the advantages and disadvantages. The unsatisfactory maintenance of roads primarily affects the speed and cost of logistics. The main tasks set for the work are: to analyze the use of current methods of repairing asphalt pavement of public roads; to study the experience of repairing asphalt pavement in Ukraine and other countries; to identify the main advantages and disadvantages of the most common methods of repairing asphalt pavement in Ukraine. In the course of the work, we were analyzing the regulatory documents governing the requirements for the operational maintenance of public roads, in particular, regarding materials and methods for repairing asphalt pavement. An analysis of the volume of work performed for the period 2018-2024 on international, national and territorial roads of state importance was carried out. The results of research by national and foreign authors have been processed. The experience of performing pothole repair works in other countries is studied. The main advantages and disadvantages of the most common methods of pothole elimination in Ukraine are determined. In the course of the work, the regulatory documents governing the requirements for repair methods and materials were processed, the main advantages and disadvantages of asphalt pavement repair methods were determined. It is proposed to continue the research in order to improve the pneumatic jet method as one of the most effective to date
