Grants and Contracts Details
Description
This section of roadway was constructed in the late 1980's of 11-inch PCC pavement on 6 inches
of base. The center lanes in each direction have exhibited mid-slab transverse cracking along with
differential settlement relative to the adjacent lanes/shoulder. In addition, faulting of the transverse joints
and at mid-slab cracks has also been observed. The causes of these distresses are not entirely known at
this time.
To assist in the evaluation of the rehabilitation alternatives, the Transportation Center will conduct
a field evaluation to determine the in-situ pavement conditions. This investigation will include Falling Weight
Deflectometer Testing, pavement coring and subgrade investigation, along with ground penetrating radar
surveys.
