Feasibility of Pavement Temperature as a Surrogate for Performance of Rigid Pavements

Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Pavements
As time marches forward communities across the State of Minnesota are experiencing on average higher temperatures, and higher frequency of extreme storms with intense flooding from climate change. For example, from 1951 to 2012 the average temperature and annual precipitation in the Twin Cities has increased by 3.25°F and 5.5 inches, respectively. Over

Cumulative Deflection and Pavement Performance

Transportation Engineering Journal of ASCE, 1975
Pavement engineers have not been able to predict the performance of pavement systems prior to their actual construction and operational utilization. A solution to this problem is obtained by verifying the following hypothesis. There is a functional relationship between the cumulative peak deflections sustained by a given pavement system and the ...

Reliability Model for Pavement Performance

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1988
A simulation model to calculate the reliability/performance of pavements is developed. The computer program, Reliability Analysis and Performance of Pavements (RAPP‐I), employs Monte Carlo simulation techniques to solve the design equations (e.g., AASHTO, Premium) in which all of the design variables are assumed to be probabilistic and normally ...

Stochastic Modeling of Pavement Performance

International Journal of Pavement Engineering, 2003
Pavement performance deterioration cannot be predicted precisely because traffic and environmental actions as well as the material properties and geometric variables of pavement systems are uncertain. Therefore, the prediction of the pavement performance should be carried out based on a probabilistic framework.

Performance of Precast Concrete Pavements

Transportation and Development Institute Congress 2011, 2011
Precast pavement technology is a new and innovative construction method that can be used to meet the need for rapid pavement repair and construction. Precast pavement systems are fabricated or assembled off-site, transported to the project site, and installed on a prepared foundation (existing pavement or re-graded foundation).

Rutting performance of asphalt pavements

2016
Cold in-place recycling (CIR) and cold central plant recycling (CCPR) of asphalt concrete (AC) and/or full-depth reclamation (FDR) of AC and aggregate base are faster and less costly rehabilitation alternatives to conventional reconstruction for structurally distressed pavements.

THE PERFORMANCE OF RCC PAVEMENTS IN AUSTRALIA

Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete Pavements
This paper reviews the performance of roller compacted concrete (RCC) pavements in Australia, detailing the progression in design, detailing, and construction techniques from the late 1980s. It provides an in-depth analysis of several early Australian projects, examining their performance characteristics, including wear, cracking, structural failures ...

Pavement Performance As A Basis For Design

Journal of the Highway Division, 1967
The assumptions in the Westergaard and Burmister theories for the design of concrete pavements, and the use of some empirical equations in the design are discussed. The results of load tests on seven concrete slabs with different foundations are presented. These tests were performed 1 yr after the construction of the pavement, i.e., when the separation
