RISAnalysis and Verification of Thermal-Gradient Effects on Concrete Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experimental and analytical study was conducted to develop an effective method for determining realistic thermal-load induced stresses in concrete pavements. Temperatures throughout the concrete slabs were measured over ...
Effects of Minimum Cementitious Paste Volume and Blended Aggregates on Compressive Strength and Surface Resistivity of Portland Limestone Cement Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Portland limestone cement (PLC) has been used in all classes of concrete in Florida since 2017. In order to comprehensively use PLC, this study investigates the effects of cementitious paste volume (CPV), water to cementitious ...
Forensic Investigation of Ultrathin Whitetopping Pavements in Florida
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Developed in the early 1990s, ultrathin whitetopping (UTW) is a relatively new technique for asphalt pavement rehabilitation. To evaluate the applicability of UTW pavement in Florida, in 1997, the Florida Department of ...
Laboratory Aging Methods for Simulation of Field Aging of Asphalts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study evaluated several promising laboratory aging methods for simulation of field aging of asphalts. The rheological properties of an asphalt binder after aging in the thin-film oven test (TFOT) and rolling thin-film ...
Effect of Early Age Strength on Cracking in Mass Concrete Containing Different Supplementary Cementitious Materials: Experimental and Finite-Element Investigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the findings of an investigation using the finite-element method to predict the distribution of temperatures within a hydrating massive concrete element. The temperature distribution produced by the ...
Internally Cured Concrete for Use in Concrete Pavement Using Accelerated Pavement Testing and Finite-Element Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Three full-size instrumented test slabs were constructed and tested by a heavy vehicle simulator (HVS) to evaluate the structural behaviors of internally cured concrete (ICC) for pavement use in Florida conditions. Three ...
