Small Crater Expedient Repair Test.

Abstract

This report describes actual field repairs of six small craters; four using unsurfaced crushed limestone compacted only from the surface with 10-ton vibratory rollers, and two repaired with hand-mixed polymer-concrete. Following the repairs the patches were trafficked with an F-4 loadcart. The crushed limestone method proved suitable for the repair of small craters; the hand-mixed polymer-concrete method was not suitable for repairs larger than approximately five feet in diameter (scabs).
