Concrete Pavement Design, Construction, and Performance
About this episode
A technical book focused on concrete pavement design, construction, and performance, likely authored by Norbert Delatte. These sections comprehensively cover the history and evolution of concrete pavements, including early road tests like the Bates Road Test, and discuss the various types of concrete pavements such as jointed plain, continuously reinforced, and roller-compacted concrete. A major focus is on complex engineering principles, detailing design methods like the AASHTO and PCA procedures, and the crucial considerations of subgrades, subbases, and drainage in determining pavement stability and thickness. Furthermore, the text thoroughly examines material selection, mixture design, and construction practices, addressing topics like aggregate quality, the use of admixtures, accelerated construction techniques, and methods for both rehabilitation and overlay of existing concrete roads and airfields.
