Abstract:The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) has little information on what to
base the performance evaluation of widened Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavements.
A broad perspective is needed to evaluate performance of concrete pavement width alternatives for cost effectiveness. A thorough investigation of all concrete width alternatives, including those employed in other states and in Wisconsin, as well as an analysis of their cost effectiveness and applicability for Wisconsin is needed to help guide WisDOT, and possibly other highway agencies, with a scientific understanding of the relationships between the performance and costs of concrete pavement width alternatives. Such an understanding will validate concrete pavement cross-section design, construction and maintenance practices and better predict concrete pavement performance.
