• Abstract:
  Researchers evaluated the existing pavement conditions of the candidate section. A visual survey was conducted to identify existing distresses that are prevalent on the CPCD. An FWD testing was conducted to measure the structural capacity of the CPCD by obtaining slab deflections and calculating the load transfer efficiency (LTE). The CRCP overlay design was calculated using the TxBCO-ME program that was developed in Project 0-6910. Using the structural information obtained during the field investigation and estimated the design traffic, the researchers proposed 4-inch and 5-inch CRCP overlays. It was later decided that the 5-inch CRCP overlay will be implemented. Subsequently, the reinforcement details were developed and submitted to the district.
