Early-Age Response of Concrete Pavements to Temperature and Moisture Variations
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2010 In this paper, the early-age response of a Jointed Plain Concrete Pavement (JPCP) to temperature and moisture variations at the time of paving and immediately following construction is discussed. A newly constructed JPCP on US-30 near Marshalltown, Iowa,
