INTRODUCTION
The Patch Master (PM) trailer mounted patching machine allows

an existing asphalt roadway surface to be heated and rejuvenated.
Thus, it can provide a permanent patch repair during any season
of the year. (1)
This report will discuss the use of the PM in several
different applications. Firstly, it will be concerned with the
way the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT) handles
roadway repairs using the PM. Secondly, it examines the effect
of heating on the physical properties of the roadway surface
material. Thirdly, it gives a performance evaluation of the
-
patches made by the PM. Finally, the report will point out the
advantages and disadvantages of using the machine.
OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE
Much of the pothole patching needs are most evident in the

winter season. Most patching methods do not work well in the
winter, making patching efforts nearly useless. The PM offers a
method of patching which could produce a permanent patch, or at
least more durable ones. A critical evaluation of the operation
of the PM and the durability of its patches was needed.
Twenty test sites were selected for evaluation using the
method developed by the ODOT maintenance crew1 These were
located in Oklahoma and Lincoln Counties. Of the Twenty sites,
one was destroyed due to bridge construction. See Figures 1 and
2 for Site Locations.
There were four sites in Oklahoma County; one on 1-35, one on
SH 66 and two on SH 74. In Lincoln County there were sixteen
sites; one on US 62, two on SH 66, five on SH 177 and eight on
SH 99. See Appendix A for Traffic Information and Roadway
History.

OPERATING THE PATCH MASTER
The PM is assembled from four major components, the V-shaped

asphalt mix hopper, the 16hp propane powered engine, push button
control panel and a luminous firebrick heating wall. See Figures
3 and 4 for photographs of the Patch Master.
One man can operate the machine but a total of three is
needed to make up a complete crew. The operation of the PM is
simple. First, you remove all the covers. The engine is located
in the rear of the. PM. Open the engine cover and locate the
panel. Then open two propane valves. Turn the ignition switch
on, engage the start button and the engine begins to run. It
powers the blower fan. Next, engage the warning flashers and
turn on the control panel power.
Move to the side of the machine and turn on the propane to
the luminous wall. Light the pilots on the wall and remove the
restraining chains. The panel can now be lowered for use. See
the operator's manual for a complete detail on operating the PM.

METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation purchased the PM in

August of 1985. After some initial trial and error, the field
crew evolved a method of repair. It is slightly different from
the "manual" procedure. Both methods require a survey of the
distressed area.
After completing the survey, move the PM into place. Then,
lower the wall onto the distressed area and heat it for 30
seconds, off for 15 seconds, on 30 seconds. Repeat that
procedure three times. Allow about 15 seconds, for the heat to
penetrate before raking. Now, rake the area into loose material.
The maintenance crew procedure allowed the loose material to be
discarded but the manual called for the re-using of the scarified
loose material in the pothole for a good hot bond. Add
rejuvenating oil to the exposed surface at the rate of about 0.1
gal per square yard. Finally, both methods require the adding of
asphalt material from the hopper as needed. Compact the patch.
SAMPLING AND TESTING

miles
south of Stroud, OK was the
Cores were taken from these sites.
A physical analysis was ran on the liquid asphalt extracted from

the cores. A condition surv, y of
the area showed block and
alligator cracking, rutting, and a very small amount of raveling.

(3)
Sample one cores were taken prior to the PM treatment. Then,
the PM heated the pothole area and it was raked. Sample two came
from the loose raked material. Then, the loose material was
removed and discarded. Fresh material was added. Sample three
cores were taken through the repaired area. It included the
interface that bonds the patching mix to the old pavement. See
Table 1 for the Abson recovery results.

CORE ANALYSIS RESULTS
The lab results showed an original aged asphalt roadway

surface which retained some penetration and viscosity. When the
roadway was heated by the PM, the loose, heated mix deteriorated.
Its flow viscosities could not be measured (over 100,000 Poise
and 10,000 csf). Also, both the penetration and ductility
properties of the loose material deteriorated significantly.
Yet, when the loose material is removed and the interface is
exposed, its Abson test values were similar to those of the
original surface. (4)
EVALUATION
A visual evaluation was made on the 20 patch sites in October

1987. Each site was evaluated as to its type of distress. See
the Appendix for Patching Evaluation Results.
PM repairs were made on asphalt concrete (AC) pavements that
had the following flaws:
1.
Overlaid Portland cement concrete (FCC) joint blow-up.
2.
Fatigue alligator cracking.
3.
Rutting.
4.
Base Failures.
The patch performance parameters needed for evaluating the PM

were established. These were as follows:
1.
Roadside condition
2.
Lane dimensions
3.
Rating the degree of roadway distress
4.
Roadway material type
5.
Weather condition.

The following is an evaluation summary
of
the
site
conditions:
1.
Site one was a repair of a FCC blow-up. After the first

year, the ride quality was poor. The second year the
patch had failed. It produced a pronounced bump.
2.
Site two was destroyed before it could be evaluated.
3.
Site three was another PCC blow-up. After the first

year, the patch was in poor condition and rough. The
second year the patch was retreated and still failed
with a corresponding sharp bump.
4.
Sites four through six were repairs of cracks and base

failures.
The first year, the patches had cracked but
the rides were still smooth.
The roadways were
resurfaced the second year.

5.
Site seven was an AC pavement that had cracks and a base

failure. After the first year the patch was partially
repatched and produced a rough ride. The surface was
overlaid the second year.
6.
Site eight was a shoving AC pavement abutted to a PCC

pavement. The first year, the ride was moderately
smooth. The second year a hump reappeared and caused
the ride to become rough.
7.
Site nine was an AC pavement that was rutting, shoving

and contained a base failure. After six months, the
base failure repair had failed and it had to be
repatched.
12
8.
Site ten was an AC pavement with cracks and ruts. After

the first year, it still had a smooth riding surface.
The second year it was resurfaced.
9.
Site eleven was abridge abutment failure.
After the
first year, it still had a smooth ride with a single

crack. The second year, it still produced a smooth
ride.
10.
Site twelve had a cracked and rutted AC surface. After

the first year, ten percent of the patch was repatched
but still had a moderately smooth ride.
11.
Sites
thirteen
cracking.
through
sixteen were shoving and
Nine months after patch repairs,
the
pavements have cracked but a smooth ride remains.

12.
Site seventeen was a rutting AC pavement. After six

months, the patch failed and was repatched.
13.
Sites eighteen through twenty were rutting and cracking

AC surfaces. After four months of service, they were in
excellent condition. They all had smooth rides.
See
Appendix B for Patching Evaluation Sheets for each site.
13
RESULTS
The results of this project can be measured by listing the

Patch Master advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:.
1.
Seventy five percent of the repairs were made in the

winter season, when ODOT was previously unable to do any
patching.
2.
It's a low maintenance tool, only the fire bricks had to

be repaired, at about $65.00 per year.
3.
A large percent of the patches provided a moderately

smooth riding surface prior to being
subsequently
overlaid.
4.
Distresses can be repaired twice as fast with the Patch

Master, than with the "cut-out" method.
Disadvantages:
1.
The Patch Master is limited to the repair of surface

failures e.g. rutting and shoving.
2.
Only small size areas 6 x 6 ft of failures can be

repaired per heating cycle.
Costs:
The average cost to repair each pothole with the PM is
$36.00. This
is derived from a rental rate of $20.18 per hour,
plus the salaries of the crew.
14
CONCLUSION
The Patch Master has been used and managed according to its
winter repair capability. Normally, except in emergencies, no
pothole patching could be performed until the spring season.
The use of the Patch Master as a tool for permanent roadway
repairs could not be fully established. Not enough comparisons
could be made to the cut-out method and the use of roller
compactors. More experience with the procedure should produce
more durable repairs.
