Comprehensive Analysis of Concrete Pavement Response to Temperature and Load Effects

Abstract:

Publication involves work to analyse thermal and loading stresses on jointed concrete pavements. The research work included instrumentation and modeling of pavement slabs. The Finite element model was used for Stress analysis and calculation of critical stresses. The model was applied to investigate premature failure of a new pavement.
