The Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) database provides data suitable for developing predictive models for Portland cement concrete (PCC) materials, stabilized materials, and unbound materials, as well as other design-related inputs for the MEPDG.
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.
A newer pavement system technology in the transportation construction industry, called “Composite Pavement”, is a combination of either a Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) base and a Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA) overlay or a PCC base and PCC overlay. This research will take a more in depth look at the specific combination of PCC and HMA.
PCC mix design is a laboratory process used to determine appropriate proportions and types of aggregate, portland cement, water and admixtures that will produce desired PCC properties. Typical desired properties in PCC for pavement are adequate strength, controlled shrinkage, durability, skid resistance and workability.
TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Report S2-R21-RR-3: Composite Pavement Systems, Volume 2: PCC/PCC Composite Pavements investigates the structural and functional performance of placing a relatively thin, high-quality PCC surface atop a thicker PCC layer.
11 kwi 2024 · The prediction of pavement performance can be done through both functional performance evaluation and structural performance assessment [1]. Several parameters and factors depending on pavement type have been established over time to evaluate the state of pavements.
pavement distress models contained in the new Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) were sensitive to a number of Portland cement concrete (PCC) materials inputs, particularly the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and Poisson’s
