• Abstract:
  Research in the state of Wisconsin over the past forty years has found no noticeable difference in ; performance between jointed concrete pavement (JCP) constructed with a sealed contraction joint and ; JCP constructed with a single, narrow, unsealed saw cut. The research was extensive, investigating ; pavements constructed with free draining bases or dense graded bases on fine grained or coarse grained ; subgrades. As a result of this research, Wisconsin has not sealed joints in concrete pavement since ; 1990. Wisconsin’s experience led other states to investigate the effectiveness of sealing joints. In 1991, ; as a supplement to the LTPP SPS-4 experiment, Arizona DOT installed a joint seal experiment containing ; more than 20 different sealants as well as unsealed joints on US 60 in Mesa. In cooperation with Arizona ; DOT, similar test sections were constructed in Nevada, Utah and Colorado. Following discussions with ; ADOT’s research engineer, ODOT decided to construct a test section identical to the ADOT site in order ; to provide data for the wet-freeze climatic zone. This research project was initiated to document the ; construction of the test sections and to monitor and report the initial performance of the test sections. ; This project was financed entirely with federal funds provided by the FHWA Test and Evaluation Project ; 30, “High Performance Concrete Pavement”.
