• Description:
  In order to increase the research-based knowledge on the dynamic and environmental effects on PCC pavement and on dowel bar diameter and spacing, the objectives for this project were: Present descriptions of pavement instrumentation and data acquisition systems for measuring environmental and dynamic effects on PCC pavement sections. Evaluate the loss of support for PCC during the curing process and service. Investigate the effect of three variations of dowel bar diameter and spacing on load transfer efficiency (LTE) and pavement performance.
