• Abstract:
  The performance of portland cement concrete mixes with higher flexural strength, higher cement content, and with Hard-Cem additive, carpet drag finish, and tined finish were evaluated over a period of five years to determine their resistance to studded tire wear. ; None of the pavements with special mixes or, mixes with Hard-Cem additive were more resistant to studded tire wear than conventional pavement with a 650 psi flexural strength mix design. ; The wear resistance of the pavement could not be correlated to either the method used to finish the concrete or the concrete’s flexural strength. ; Finally, the carpet drag finishing method produced a pavement with acceptable friction resistance.
