The Florida Department of Transportation is in the process of evaluating rubblizing concrete pavements as an effective rehabilitation technique for eliminating reflected cracks in asphalt overlays on top of concrete pavements. As part of that evaluation, a nationwide survey was performed to gather information about the practices of other departments of transportation with regard to rubblization and to determine the overall performance of rubblized sections in various states. The survey indicated that most states have a relatively small number of rubblized sections, with the exception of three states that have more than 10 sections each. The construction techniques, overlay thicknesses, and field performance varied from state to state. However, it was clear that most states are highly satisfied with rubblization as a good means for eliminating reflected cracks. Only a few states indicated problems with rubblization, mainly due to weak subgrade.
