Book Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement

Download or read book Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement written by Nelson Pohlman and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) is enjoying a renaissance across the United States and around the world. CRCP has the potential to provide a long-term, "zero-maintenance," service life under heavy traffic loadings and challenging environmental conditions, provided proper design and quality construction practices are utilised. This book provides an overview of the CRCP technology and the major developments that have led to what are referred to herein as the "best practices" for CRCP design and construction. The purpose of this book is to provide the best practices information on rehabilitation strategies for extending the service life of continuously reinforced concrete pavements (CRCP). The procedures described in this book consist of defining the problem, identifying potential solutions, and selecting the preferred alternatives.

Book Field Performance of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement in Illinois

Download or read book Field Performance of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement in Illinois written by Nasir G. Gharaibeh and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the design and performance of continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) in Illinois. Illinois has built over 4,267 two-lane km (2,650 miles) of CRCP on the Interstate system since the mid-1950s. CRCP has been constructed on nearly all urban freeways in the Chicago area and has shown excellent performance under severe weather and heavy traffic conditions. The effect of key design and construction parameters on long-term CRCP performance is investigated using a database that was compiled based on field surveys conducted from 1977 to 1994 by the Illinois Department of Transportation (I DOT). Analysis of the data shows the following variables have significant effects on performance: longitudinal reinforcement content (greatest effect of all variables), slab thickness (also very significant), traffic load applications, depth of reinforcement, base type, and 0-cracking of concrete. CRCP built with tubes or chairs exhibited overall about the same performance. Experimental field studies in Illinois showed that depth of reinforcement has a large effect on crack width and, eventually, on punchouts.

Book Performance Studies of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement

Download or read book Performance Studies of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement written by Kenneth H. McGhee and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The status of studies of the three continuously reinforced pavement projects near Charlottesville is reported. Of particular interest in these studies are the effects of the elimination of transverse reinforcing steel, the changing characteristics of shrinkage cracking with age, and the end movements of anchor sections. While the studies are somewhat inconclusive at this early age of the pavements, the following tentative conclusions are offered: 1. Cracks show a definite trend to become both more closely spaced and wider during the first 2 to 3 years of a continuously reinforced pavement's life. There is some inconclusive evidence that the widening process stabilizes after this time period. 2. While crack spacing can be influenced by weather conditions during pavement placement, there is no apparent relationship between crack width and either crack spacing or placement weather. 3. As expected, cracks are significantly wider at the surface during winter (pavement shrinking) than during summer (pavement expanding). (Note - Earlier studies have shown that cracks which are easily seen and measured at the surface are invisible in the immediate vicinity of the reinforcing steel.) 4. End anchor movement is very modest during the first year and seems to decrease slightly with age. There is a pronounced seasonal effect which produces joint movements in excess of the capabilities of poured joint sealants. 5. The elimination of full width transverse steel has had no effect on pavement performance for the first 2 to 3 years. Acting upon a recommendation from these studies, the Department's pavement design engineer has instituted a requirement for the use of preformed compression seals in all expansion joints adjacent to the anchor slabs of continuously reinforced pavements.

Book Performance of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement in Illinois

Download or read book Performance of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement in Illinois written by Scott A. LaCoursiere and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the performance of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP) constructed on the Interstate highway system in Illinois has-been conducted. The major purpose is to determine the types, severities, amounts, and causes of distress. This information will then be used to develop optimum maintenance procedures to repair the distress that occurs, and preventative maintenance procedures to reduce the rate of distress occurrence. The distress data collected can also be used to update CRCP design procedures. Approximately 1230 miles of Interstate highway was surveyed, consisting of 7 to 10 in. (17-25 cm) slabs over granular and stabilized subbases. Distress found includes edge punchouts, steel ruptures, "D" cracking, blowups, construction joint failures, lug rotation, longitudinal cracking, distress related to construction problems, pumping, and shoulder deterioration. Heavy truck loads, excess free moisture, deicing salts, construction practice and poor aggregate quality in the CRCP slab are the major factors causing distress. CRCP slab thickness and foundation support have a very significant effect on structural distress development. "D" cracking is causing severe deterioration of several projects. Overall, the performance of the thicker CRCP slabs (i.e., 9-10 in.) has been very good under heavy truck traffic; however, the performance of many sections of thinner CRCP (i.e., 7-8 in.) has been poor, and is showing an accelerated rate of distress development over time. The amount of distress expected to occur, and the maintenance effort required in the next several years points strongly toward a need for the development of more efficient and durable ways of maintaining CRCP.
