Abstract:

This report completes a sensitivity analysis of the MEPDG based on Oklahoma pavements, provides a literature review of base material best practices, increases the Oklahoma weather data available for the MEPDG, investigates the impact of curing on curling from drying shrinkage and from temperature differentials in concrete pavements, and provides regional input guidance for strength, coefficient of thermal expansion, and shrinkage for Oklahoma concrete mixtures. This research will speed the adoption of the MEPDG in Oklahoma.
