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) This is the most common type of rigid pavement.

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.
Here the user will characterize two PCC layers, and the remainder of the pavement input proceeds as in any other design. Design recommendations for use of R21-modified MEPDG (v. 1.3000:R21) to design PCC/ PCC composite pavements are provided below: 1. General use of MEPDG for composite pavements a.
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.
The basic findings were that (1) the HDM-4 PCC pavement deterioration models cannot be used at this time by WSDOT, and (2) the NCHRP 1-37A models are able to be calibrated with some limited exceptions. This report provides the details associated with these findings.
1 gru 2009 · Several recent efforts in U.S. pavement research deal with creating sustainable technologies and designs that use composite pavements, that is, pavements with heterogeneous asphalt, concrete...
