Effects of Jet Blast and Fuel Spillage on Bituminous Pavements
Publication: Journal of the Air Transport Division
Volume 83, Issue 2
Abstract
Studies conducted by the Corps of Engineers for the U.S. Air Force in connection with the effects of jet blast and fuel spillage on bituminous military airfield pavements show that the heat and blast effects become critical on tar concrete, asphaltic concrete, and rubberized-tar concrete pavements at 250, 300, and 315°F, respectively. Repeated fuel spillage in one spot is detrimental to asphaltic concrete, but has no adverse effect on tar or rubberized-tar concrete.
