Abstract:
This project is a continuation of the research done from 1972 to 1981 on a jointed portland cement concrete pavement test section located in the southbound lane of Ohio Route 23 in Chillicothe, Ohio. Several variables were incorporated into the pavement: joint spacing, type of base, type of dowels and type of sawcut. Short term and long term horizontal movements caused by temperature were evaluated over a two year period. Vertical movements under known axle loads were also determined. Dynaflect and FWD were measured at the same time as the vertical movements. A statistical analysis was conducted of the horizontal and vertical movement data. A record of the damage to the pavement during the 20 year span was also made.
