• Abstract:
  Laboratory studies have found that reducing the particle size of D-cracking susceptible coarse aggregates will greatly ; improve the durability of concrete exposed to freeze-thaw conditions. A test road located on State Route 2 near ; Vermilion, Ohio, was built in 1974 and 1975 with specific sections to investigate the role aggregate source and size, ; as well as subbase drainage systems, pavement joint design, subbase materials, joint sealants, cement, type of cure, ; and joint spacing on concrete durability. The test sections were rehabilitated in 1992. While developing plans for the ; 1992 rehabilitation, a significant difference in repair quantity was needed for the various sections due to the difference ; in performance. Research was initiated to determine the cost effectiveness of the various treatments.
