Abstract
For a fast treatment of winter distresses, which minimizes the adverse influence of the treatment work on traffic safety and traffic flow, a prefabricated, rollable pavement was developed that is based on a textile-reinforced concrete with short fiber. A high tensile strength and ductility can be expected. Through an oriented design and structuring of the surface, the skid resistance, drainability, and resistance to removal of aggregates can be optimized. This paper provides a basis study on this innovative road surface. With this technique, winter distresses can be removed within a few hours. The new road surface can be opened to traffic as soon as possible. Therefore, it has the potential to contribute to durable road structures and sustainability of road engineering.
