Book Description
Performance and environmental data continued to be monitored throughout this study on the Ohio SHRP Test Road. Response testing included three new series of controlled vehicle tests and two sets of nondestructive tests. Cracking in two SPS-2 sections with lean concrete base confirmed observations elsewhere that PCC pavement may not perform well when placed on rigid base. Of the five types of base material used on LOG 33 and evaluated for their effect on AC pavement performance, deflection measurements on the asphalt treated base fluctuated most with changes in temperature. None of the other bases were sensitive to temperature. Cement treated base had the lowest deflection. On unbound material, bases containing large size stone gave the lowest deflection. The preponderance of data collected in the laboratory and at the ERI/LOR 2 site suggests that PCC pavement performs poorly on 307 NJ and CTFD bases. All sections with 25-foot slabs, except those with ATFD base, and the section with 13-foot slabs on 307 NJ base had significant transverse cracking. The 13-foot long slabs with 307 NJ base also had some longitudinal cracking. Considering the relatively short time these pavement sections had been in service, this level of performance was considered unacceptable. The ATFD base appeared to be performing best. On JAC/GAL 35, subgrade stiffness had a significant effect on dowel bar response. Looseness around dowel bars affected their ability to transfer load. Larger diameter and stiffer dowel bars provided better load transfer across PCC joints. The most effective dowel bar in these tests was the 1.5" diameter steel bar. The performance of 1" steel dowel bars were similar to 1.5" fiberglass bars. One-inch diameter fiberglass dowel bars were not recommended for PCC pavement. While undercutting PCC joint repairs initially reduced the forces in dowel bars, the effectiveness of the undercut diminished over time. Dowel bar forces were about the same in the Y and YU types of joint repairs after some time.

Book Description
Environmental instruments to measure temperature, soil moisture and frost depth were installed at five test sections of the SHRP pavement project on U.S. 23 north of Delaware, Ohio. At three of these locations tensiometers, which a designed to measure negative pore pressures, were added to the instrumentation package. The pore pressures as recorded by the tensiometers have increased from initially negative to positive values at each location and throughout the profile in the first year after installation of the instrument package was completed. At the same time, data collected from the moisture probes were showing a corresponding increase in soil moisture content. Samples of an aggregate base and clayey subgrade material were collected at several locations on the DEL 23 project by ODOT. They were delivered to the OSU soil mechanics laboratory for classification and permeability determination. The aggregate base conformed to ODOT material specification Item 304. Measured permeability coefficients ranged between 2x10 [to the minus 2] and 2.9x10 [to the minus 2] cm /sec. The clayey material was classified as a low plasticity clay (AASHTO Classification A-6 to A-7-6) with permeability coefficients ranging between 1x10 [to the minus 6] and 4x10 [to the minus 8] cm/sec.

Book Description
In Phase I, the research team contacted each of 16 participating states to gather information about concrete and concrete material tests. A preliminary suite of tests to ensure long-term pavement performance was developed. The tests were selected to provide useful and easy-to-interpret results that can be performed reasonably and routinely in terms of time, expertise, training, and cost. The tests examine concrete pavement properties in five focal areas critical to the long life and durability of concrete pavements: (1) workability, (2) strength development, (3) air system, (4) permeability, and (5) shrinkage. The tests were relevant at three stages in the concrete paving process: mix design, preconstruction verification, and construction quality control. In Phase II, the research team conducted field testing in each participating state to evaluate the preliminary suite of tests and demonstrate the testing technologies and procedures using local materials.

Pack: Book and CDInternationally, full-scale accelerated pavement testing, either on test roads or linear/circular test tracks, has proven to be a valuable tool that fills the gap between models and laboratory tests and long-term experiments on in-service pavements. Accelerated pavement testing is used to improve understanding of pavement behavior,

Book Description
Monitoring of the environmental instrumentation installed under select pavement sections constructed by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) in 1995 on US 23 in Delaware County, Ohio was continued. The measurements made consisted of soil moisture, temperature and frost depth profiles.
