Abstract:

This report includes an extensive literature review and laboratory investigations for selected physical properties of concrete mixtures used in the construction of continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP). Nine test parameters were investigated in this study: temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed; concrete temperature, type of aggregate, amount of mixing water and replacement of fly ash; and mixing time and consolidation effort. A total of 116 tests were performed in three categories: strength tests such as compressive, pullout, flexural and modified compressive strength; volume and weight change tests such as shrinkage and weight loss of bar specimen, moisture content, and loss measurements of cube specimen; and other tests such as time of setting and abrasion resistance.
