Description-Abstract
In
recent
years
the
Ohio
Department
of
Transportation
(ODOT)
has
reconstructed
a
number
of
roadways
where
asphalt
pavements
were
replaced
with
random
transverse
grooved
concrete
pavements
.
Upon
completion
,
residents
living
adjacent
to the
reconstructed
roadways
have
complained
of
increased
noise
levels
. The
Federal
Highway
Administration
(FHWA)
Traffic
Noise
Model
(TNM)
is
used
to
determine
if
predicted
traffic
noise
levels
warrant
abatement
and to
design
the
abatement
structures
. The
public
perception
problem
described
above
suggests
that the
model
does
not
result
in
adequate
noise
barrier
abatement
designs
near
random
transverse
grooved
concrete
pavements
. The
overall
goal
of this
project
was to
provide
ODOT
with
accurate
TNM
noise
predictions
when
modeling
random
transverse
grooved
concrete
pavement
highways
.
Three
random
transverse
grooved
PCC
roadway
sites
were
chosen
for
study
where
high
quality
sound
recordings
were
taken
.
Sites
1
(Cincinnati
I-275)
and
2
(Troy
I-75)
were
chosen
to
represent
the
noise
quality
experienced
by
residents
adjacent
to the
roadway
,
where
the
residential
areas
were
separated
from the
roadway
by
sound
barriers
.
Site
3
(Madison
County
I-70)
was
chosen
to
study
the
attenuation
of
road
noise
with
distance
in an
easily-characterized
environment
; an
open
soybean
cropland
essentially
level
on
both
sides
of the
roadway
with
no
noise
barrier
.
Through
a
paired
t-test
the
research
findings
determined
that the
sample
means
of the
TNM
average
pavement
and the
ODOT
random
transverse
grooved
pavement
were not
equivalent
based
upon
a
level
of
confidence
of
95
percent
. An
examination
of the
one-third
octave
band
frequency
levels
indicated
that at
frequencies
greater
than
500
Hz
, the
measured
traffic
noise
levels
exceeded
both
the
TNM
average
pavement
type
and
TNM
ODOT
random
transverse
grooved
pavement
predictions
.
However
, at
frequencies
less
than
500
Hz
the
predictions
tended
to
exceed
the
measurements
.
It
is
recommended
that the
experimental
version
of
TNM
developed
for this
project
,
using
the
current
ODOT
random
transverse
grooved
concrete
pavement
REMEL
, should not be
used
in
practice
due
to its
potential
to
under-predict
traffic
noise
levels
. A
new
surface
texture
specification
should also be
developed
for
concrete
pavements
to
replace
the
current
specification
in
order
to
reduce
tire/pavement
noise
levels
while
maintaining
or
improving
safety
and
durability
characteristics
.
