• Abstract:
  Over the last several years, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) initiated multiple research projects focused on identifying the origins and failure mechanisms responsible for premature joint deterioration in concrete pavements, as well as on the development of potential guidelines for eliminating or slowing down this distress. Similar studies have been performed by other states or groups of states through the pooled fund study mechanism.
