The first PCC pavement in the U.S. was constructed in 1891 in Bellefontaine, Ohio. This pavement was only 3.0 m wide and 67.1 m long (probably what we would call a “test section” today). In 1909, in Wayne County, Michigan, a PCC highway system was constructed.
The history of portland cement concrete over portland cement concrete (PCC/PCC) composite pavements in the United States dates back to the first concrete pavement constructed in the United States, located in Bellefontaine, OH, in 1891, shown in Figure 1.
Almost all rigid pavement is made with Portland Cement Concrete (PCC). Rigid pavements are differentiated into three major categories by their means of crack control: Jointed plain concrete pavement (JPCP)
The appendices to the two-volume report provide additional detail, understanding, and history on HMA/PCC and PCC/PCC pavements. The project that produced this report also produced SHRP 2 Report S2-R21-RW-1: 2008 Survey of European Composite Pavements.
This report documents recommendations for the design and construction of portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. The recommendations were derived from the analysis of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) data.
1 kwi 2021 · A 35-year period of as-built data from 1983 to 2017 was analyzed, involving 37 treatment strategies with 17 for asphalt and 20 for Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavements.
The research findings indicated that the choice of indicators was derived from a number of sources, but the most reliable basis is historic pavement management data from similar pre- viously constructed pavements.
