Abstract:

ODOT selected a relocation of US Route 30 near Wooster ; in Wayne County, the WAY-30 project, as the site for ; testing long life pavements. The eastbound lanes were ; constructed with a long-life Portland Cement Concrete ; (PCC) pavement, and the westbound lanes had an asphalt ; concrete (AC) perpetual pavement design. The purpose of ; the study was to evaluate these long life pavement design ; procedures as alternative pavement design methods. These ; design methods have been rapidly gaining acceptance in the ; United States. The perpetual asphalt pavement concept uses ; mechanistic-empirical design procedure which requires ; accurate mechanical properties of materials, traffic, and ; environmental data as input to predict pavement responses ; and distresses. Using input data and pavement response ; models, the thickness of each pavement layer is determined ; to keep certain pavement responses at critical locations ; within limiting values for perpetual performance. Design of ; long-lived concrete pavement also requires accurate ; material properties.
