Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The production use of precast concrete pavement (PCP) has come a long way over the last 15 years. The technology is gaining wider acceptance in the U.S. for rapid repair and rehabilitation of concrete pavements as well as for heavily trafficked asphalt concrete pavements and intersections. Several U.S. highway agencies have implemented the PCP technology, and other agencies have constructed demonstration projects. In the U.S., the PCP technology is being used for intermittent repairs (full-depth joint repairs or full panel replacement) and for continuous applications (longer length/wider area rehabilitation) with service life expectations of at least 20 years for intermittent repairs and at least 40 years for continuous applications, without significant future corrective treatment. Strategic Highway Research Program 2 (SHRP2) Project R05 was conducted from 2008 to 2012 to develop technical information and guidelines that would encourage the rapid and successful adoption of PCP technology. In 2013, the SHRP2 Implementation Assistance Program (IAP) was created to help state highway agencies, metropolitan planning organizations, and other interested organizations deploy SHRP2-developed products to deliver more efficient, costeffective solutions to meet the complex challenges facing transportation agencies. On March 28, 2014, as part of round 3 of the IAP, four lead adopters were selected to receive financial support from the Federal Highway Administration for implementation of PCP technology. Kansas Department of Transportation, one of the agencies selected as a lead adopter, received an award of 300,000 [dollars] to help offset the cost of the implementation of PCP technology in the State. This case study report provides details of the 2015 PCP use for rehabilitation of two distressed concrete pavement intersections and a bridge approach section along US 73 in Leavenworth, Kansas.

The technology is gaining wider acceptance in the U.S. for rapid repair and rehabilitation of concrete pavements as well as for heavily trafficked asphalt concrete pavements and intersections. Several U.S. highway agencies, including Caltrans, Illinois Tollway, and the New Jersey, New York, and Utah State Departments of Transportation, have implemented the PCP technology, and other agencies have constructed demonstration projects. In the U.S., the PCP technology is being used on concrete pavements for intermittent repairs (full-depth joint repairs or full panel replacement) and for continuous applications (longer length/wider area rehabilitation) with service life expectations of at least 20 years for intermittent repairs and at least 40 years for continuous applications, without significant future corrective treatment. The use of PCP on asphalt pavements includes the replacement of ramps, intersections and bus pads. The Strategic Highway Research Program 2 (SHRP2) Project R05 was conducted from 2008 to 2012 to develop technical information and guidelines that would encourage the rapid and successful adoption of PCP technology. In 2013, the SHRP2 Implementation Assistance Program (IAP) was created to help State DOTs, metropolitan planning organizations, and other interested organizations deploy SHRP2-developed products to deliver more efficient, costeffective solutions to meet the complex challenges facing transportation agencies. On March 28, 2014, the Federal Highway Administration—in partnership with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials—announced the selection of several transportation agencies receiving implementation and technical assistance awards as part of round 3 of the SHRP2 IAP. The Texas Department of Transportation, one of the agencies selected as a lead adopter of Project R05 technology, received an award of 300,000 [dollars] to help offset the cost of constructing a PCP project. This case study report provides details of the 2016 PCP use for rehabilitation of a distressed asphalt concrete pavement at the intersection of Route 97 and Route 72 in McMullen/LaSalle County, Texas.
Download or read book Concrete Pavement Design Construction and Performance written by Norbert Delatte and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing the interactions between the different design and construction variables and techniques this book illustrates best practices for constructing economical, long life concrete pavements. The book proceeds in much the same way as a pavement construction project. First, different alternatives for concrete pavement solutions are outlined. The desired performance and behaviour parameters are identified. Next, appropriate materials are outlined and the most suitable concrete proportions determined. The design can be completed, and then the necessary construction steps for translating the design into a durable facility are carried out. Although the focus reflects highways as the most common application, special features of airport, industrial, and light duty pavements are also addressed. Use is made of modeling and performance tools such as HIPERPAV and LTPP to illustrate behavior and performance, along with some case studies. As concrete pavements are more complex than they seem, and the costs of mistakes or of over-design can be high, this is a valuable book for engineers in both the public and private sectors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My presentation today is concerned with California's experience in one important aspect of modern road construction--the methods of placing and finishing portland cement concrete pavements. Portland cement concrete pavements were first constructed on the California State Highway System in 1912. Initially, the concrete was utilized to construct a base over which an asphaltic wearing surface was placed. By 1922, the concrete was finished as the surface without an asphalt overlay.

Book excerpt: In order to evaluate the future performance of rehabilitated concrete pavements, a Heavy Vehicle Simulator (HVS) was used to test a Portland Cement Concrete pavement section constructed at the University of California at Berkeley. The main goals of this accelerated pavement testing were to familiarize the staff with concrete pavement construction, install instrumentation in the slabs, develop a rigid pavement testing procedure using the HVS, and monitor the in-situ instrumentation with loading. All the information and experience gained from this testing was used later for instrumentation and HVS testing of six fast setting hydraulic cement concrete (FSHCC) test sections located in Palmdale, California. A test plan was designed to provide concrete pavement testing and analysis research regarding the LLPRS-Rigid design options being considered by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). The objectives of this test plan were 1) to evaluate the adequacy of structural design options (tied concrete shoulders, doweled joints, and widened truck lanes) being considered by Caltrans, primarily with respect to joint distress, fatigue cracking, and corner cracking; 2) to assess the durability of concrete slabs made with cements meeting the requirements for early ability to place traffic upon them and to develop methods to screen new materials for durability; and 3) to measure the effects of construction and mix design variables on the durability and structural performance of concrete pavements.
