7 In the construction of highways for auto mobile and motor rtraflic 'a new and less abrasive type of pavement than that formerly sufficient for horse drawn vehicles, has become a necessity Resistant pavement; is expensivefin first cost thereby limiting the amount of pavement which can be'laid,especially in the rural districts on account ofjthe high cost of installation' Trafiic over most highways, develops along If confined to these lines byreason of a superior traffic way or wearing surface, it becomes unnecesary to cover the entire width of the 'road'bed of the highway ant material but this resistant material can be confined to certain narrow, strips along which travel will proceed.
with a continuous sheetof resistlongitudinal The V place between said strips if filledfwith a'less resistant material will reduce the cost of naedoso tracks; 8 is joint on the tracks 7 which register to{ of precastmaterial.
gether; 10 is a key adapted to enter-the the roadway withoutin any way interfering with its value and giving equally good traiho conditions to those existing where the road over which the entire width of the travel way has been covered with the more expensive resistant i material. I I r a i In the operation of constructing a road of the type herein described, it built for the passage of a single vehicle and without provision for a contlnuousstreain or traiiic in both directions, two longitudinal tracks or ways are provided, united together by a tie In building this roadway, absolute adherence to the original surface of the roadway is not required but QX-V cavationiis made across the width of the I existing roadway only to such depthas is necessary for the introduction of theties.
Before these are accurately spaced the longi tudinall tracks are laid upon the ,tie's keys having been introduced into the re-entrant grooves along the under side of the tracks previous to placing in the roadway, but without fastening into the track. The l reys are slid-ably movable along the traclrunti they enter there-entrant groove upon the upper surface of the netherwhich both ties and tracks are aligned by means of the locating ridges 21 and tamped tograde,
After the ties and tracks are in place,- a cementitious or bituminous materialiis poured throughpouring holes 20 so as-to surround the keys and fill the re entrant grooves thereby binding the track and ties together. The balance ofthe roadway between the tracks is then filled with ordinary:
earth or other suitable materialjto point ust below the crown of the-finished roadway when any type of road material, such as broken stone and water or oil, bound macada m, can be introduced.completingand crowning the roadway between the two tracks and extendingoutwardly, it designed,
to form the shoulders "17 of any desired width. a
' In the construction'ot a two track roadwaywhere provision is made for, continuous I that after the introduction of halfof the roadway, traffic may be diverted to the c'ornthe plete'd half while the construction pf remaining. half is under way. v V It is evident from' Fig. 5 and Figr-ll thatat a time, thereby leaving the other i mes-e39 by the process herein set forth, it is possible to construct anew highway withoutexcavating below the ground surface or of the original highway, except for so much as may be required for the placingof the ties. Material excavated for this purpose being placed over said tics and around said tracks" site ofthe work, the excavated material as isoften the case with present road'constructional methods and allows for the arr lization of most, if not all, of the material as filling in making 'the'new roadway, and also materially reduces the amount of .exca vation required. it is seen that atj oint locations resting upon ties, the joints are lapped and in order to preserve the aline ment of said joints. dowel holes are left intov which dowels'are introduced thereby preventing the crawling of the track and maintaining it in proper longitudinal and transverse alignment. On ieai'y grades, despite this method of COIL struction, difficulties might ensuein the crawling of the track, if the entire construction at: the joint were not such as to make ties and track work together and for this purpose ribs transverse to the track are constructed so asto engage the side, of the ties 3 in case of crawling and cause the ties and tracks to work-in unison.
t is expected that the tracks of this road:-
bed would be constructed of concrete, eitherreinforced or not, and, necessarily whatever material of constructio-njwas used in the making of the tracks, the joints thereof would be exposed unless covered up by some material, suchexposure resulting in disintegration from frost andxwearing from traffic. Prgain in certain climates, a 1110128 re.-
silient material than concrete might be de "sired on which the treads of the vehicle n ight travel. Forthis purpose, the tracks are made with depressions, having undercut valls and a Wearing strip of material other hen the track material, such as asphalt, brick or some combination of bituminous binder with LlJIOliGIl stone or gravel basis isiintroduced therein, such strip. covering the jointsin the tracks therebyprote-cting them and at :the same time, making a continuous unjointed strip on' which the treads of said vehicles may travel. i
