Abstract:This report documents enhancements incorporated in the (HIgh PERformance PAVing) HIPERPAV II software. Enhancements made ; within this project include the addition of two major modules: a module to predict the performance of JPCP as affected by early-age ; factors; and a module to predict the early-age behavior (first 72 hours) and early life (up to 1 year) of CRCP. Two additional FHWA ; studies were also incorporated: one that predicts dowel bearing stresses as a function of environmental loading during the early age; ; and a module for optimization of concrete paving mixes as a function of 3-day strength, 28-day strength, and cost. Additional ; functionality to the software was also incorporated by reviewing and prioritizing the feedback provided by users of the first generation ; of the software, HIPERPAV I. ; This volume includes the following technical appendices: A) annotated outline of the references investigated during this project; B) ; description of the models selected for incorporation in HIPERPAV II; C) field investigation of JPCP and CRCP sites used for model ; validation; D) validation of the enhanced HIPERPAV II computer guidelines; and E) finite-difference temperature model validation. ; This is the third volume and last in a series of three volumes that document the different tasks carried out in accomplishing the ; objectives for this project.
