Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focusses on the Structural Design of Interlocking Concrete Block Pavement (ICBP) including application, analysis, design, construction, and the fundamental design concept of ICBP backed by case studies to demonstrate long-term performance of ICBP. It helps to draw conclusions regarding the various geometric properties that must be applied to achieve the performance of ICBP. Features: Promotes the use of ICBP in the construction of pavements. Provides a comprehensive overview of concrete block paving. Discusses specifications from codes like ASCE 58-16, ASTM, BS and IRC codes and datasets online. Includes chapters on choosing the materials and designing the type and the shape of the concrete block and the thickness of all layers of the pavement. Lists appropriate stipulated values for the various geometric properties. Aids in understanding the history and comprehensive application of ICBP. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in pavement and civil engineering.

Download or read book Concrete Paving Blocks written by Michael K. Abate and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a widespread perception in the U.S. that a concrete block pavement (CBP) is an untried pavement alternative. However, each year more of these pavements are being installed. The available literature concerning this type of pavement is limited in the U.S. as most research papers are published elsewhere. This report examines CBP's from several perspectives in order to provide an overview of this alternative pavement technology. First, the CBP system is described. The importance of using the proper bedding sand gradations is stressed and the phenomenon of lock-up, or interlock, is explained. The various design methods for CBP's are also presented. Here, the concept of equivalency factors is discussed. Next, the structural performance of several CBP projects varying from 1 to 10 years are reviewed. Finally, the range of, CBP costs in the Puget Sound area are provided, and a review of those prices paid by WSDOT for asphaltic concrete and Portland cement concrete is made to determine cost competitiveness with a CBP. Concrete paving blocks, Pavement performance, Pavement design, Pavement costs.
