Laboratory tests in rigid pavement [PDF]
Deterioration of concrete structure is consequence of aging, applied loads and weathering. In this paper, several laboratory tests were presented, compared to computational models and a field test case study. The purpose of the laboratory measurements is the analysis of the results in the case of different size cracks in concrete beams, filled with ...

Application of Recycled Asphalt Pavement Aggregate in Rigid Pavement
In Mexico, heavy traffic with excess loads is the main cause of pavement deterioration, which has influenced the consumption and exploitation of natural resources, thereby affecting road rehabilitation. The use of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) has been presented as a technique to reduce the aforementioned issues, which consists of milling the ...

Effects of Pavement Roughness on Rigid Pavement Stress
ABSTRACTPavement roughness causes pavement stress fluctuation along the road. However, the dynamic effects were not taken into account in most pavement design and studies. To investigate the influences of roadway roughness on pavement stresses, this study developed a coupled system consisting of a quarter-car model and an equivalent lump pavement model.

ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECT OF SLAB THICKNESS ON CRACK WIDTH IN RIGID PAVEMENT SLABS
Cracks that occur in rigid pavements include longitudinal cracks, transverse cracks, and corner cracks. The relatively large crack width not only spoils the aesthetics of the concrete structural elements but can also lead to structural failure.
