Abstract:

The ever-increasing number of vehicles on America's roadways is causing pavements to deteriorate faster, requiring major rehabilitation or replacement. Rehabilitation or construction of new pavements, however, can cause significant traffic congestion, leading to a substantial increase in user costs. Under this premise, and owing to the success of precast concrete technology in the bridge and commercial building industries, the Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration commissioned research to investigate the feasibility of using precast concrete panels for pavement construction. This summary report briefly describes the study and its results, and presents recommendations for expediting construction of Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements. The researchers recommend a staged implementation.
