June 2006 
On March 8, 2006, HDE provided a powerpoint presentation on longitudianl joint heating to the specification committee of the Tennessee DOT. The presentation included a history of joint heating done by HDE since the Province of Quebec, Canada, enacted a hot joint specification in 1995 by either echelon paving or joint heating. At the request of TDOT, a second presentation was done to various department heads on March 20, 2006. TDOT has since decided to go ahead wit two longitudinal joint heating test sections. The first was on an 8 mile surface coat application of US Highway 70, west of Jackson, TN. The contractor for the project, Ford Construction Co of Dyersberg, TN, completed the 8 mile test section in three days of paving at speeds of 25 to 35 feet per minute. Various tests on the joint are now being conducted by TDOT. Attending part of the test section was a representative of Roadtec, Inc., Mr Jim Walton, International Sales Manager. Mr Walton used a Flir infrared camera to monitor the success of the joint heating and his report is attached. The second test section will be a 7 mile resurfacing to be done in mid July by Standard Construction Co of Germantown, TN. Download Roadtec Report PDF here
