Abstract:This Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) data analysis was intended to examine, in a practical way, the LTPP database and to identify the site conditions and design features that significantly affect transverse joint faulting. Key products developed as part of this research were (1) answers to frequently asked questions regarding design features and site conditions that lead to "good" (better than expected) and "poor" (worse than expected) performance of jointed concrete pavements relative to joint faulting and (2) guidelines to assist highway agencies on what works and what does not work in the design of transverse joints to control joint faulting. This TechBrief presents key findings of this research.
