• Abstract:
  As part of the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) Program, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) ; constructed 19 Specific Pavement Studies 6 (SPS‐6) test sections on Interstate 40 near Flagstaff. The SPS‐6 project ; studied the effect of specific rehabilitation treatments on jointed portland cement concrete pavement (JPCP) ; performance. The test sections had various JPCP surface preparations, including crack and seat, minimum and ; maximum restoration, rubblization, asphalt concrete (AC) with fabric, and asphalt rubber with conventional AC. ; Opened to traffic in 1991, the project was monitored at regular intervals until 2002. Surface distress, profile, and ; deflection data collected throughout the life of the pavement were used to evaluate the performance of various ; flexible pavement design features, layer configurations, and thickness. This report documents the analyses conducted ; as well as practical findings and lessons learned that will be of interest to ADOT.
