Effects of Hinged Dowel System on the Performance of Concrete Pavement Joints
, 2013 Concrete joint failure is a major distress mode in rigid pavements. Improving the joint performance in concrete pavements could yield substantial savings in terms of reduced maintenance and rehabilitation costs.

Minne-ALF Project Overview and Retro-Fit Dowel Study Results
, 1999 A laboratory-based linear loading pavement test stand, the Minnesota Accelerated Loading Facility (Minne-ALF) simulates the passage of heavy traffic loads moving at speeds up to 65 kph (40 mph) over small, full-scale pavement test slabs.

Dowel bars corrosion in concrete pavement
, 2000 To study the effectiveness of sealants in reducing chlorides and water intrusion into pavement joint openings, nine 122 × 91 × 20 cm concrete slabs were fabricated.

Investigation of dowel bar placement accuracy with a dowel bar inserter [PDF]
Dowel bar inserters (DBI) on concrete paving equipment eliminate the need for manually placing dowel bar baskets. Reduced manual labor eventually pays off the initial investment in a DBI and ultimately results in reduced PCCP costs to the roadway owner ...

The shear plate dowel joint : Research on a novel connection for heavy timber structures [PDF]
, 2019 An increased use of wood can reduce the environmental footprint of the building sector. In order to improve the competitiveness of heavy timber structures, the thesis presents a novel type of timber connection with a high degree of prefabrication.

NUMERICAL STUDY OF DOWELED EXPANSION JOINTS ON PLAIN CONCRETE PAVEMENT SYSTEM
Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2018 In this paper, the ABAQUS / CAE 6.13.1 program is used to study the effect of several variables on the efficiency of the load transfer through an expansion joint in a plain concrete pavement system under the influence of the static wheel load.
