Abstract:
The use of precast concrete is rapidly becoming a viable method for repair and rehabilitation of portland cement concrete pavements, with several projects under construction or in development throughout the United States. Construction with precast concrete offers numerous benefits over conventional cast-in-place pavement construction. Most notable is how quickly a precast pavement can be opened to traffic. Precast panels can be placed during overnight or weekend operations and opened to traffic almost immediately. In addition, because precast panels are cast in a controlled environment, the du

Abstract:
ABAQUS software is adopted. And the three-dimensional finite element models, respectively oblique and vertical reinforcements, are used for the calculation of the prestressed concrete pavement structure. The prestress is imposed on pavement by changing the temperature of reinforcements. Then through the analysis of mechanical behavior of the two kinds of prestressed reinforcement concrete pavements under the standard load. The results show that the oblique reinforcement pavement is flatter and the range of influnence is smaller. These data of the two kinds of pavements are provided for enginee

Abstract:
Autonomous truck platoons shall soon be traveling our highway system with greater frequency. The objective of the presented study is to conduct a high-level evaluation of the Texas concrete bridge inventory when subjected to potential truck platoon loading. The National Bridge Inventory (NBI) database is utilized to the greatest extent possible. In addition, a significant literature review is performed to make assumptions allowing estimated load rating calculations for the prestressed concrete bridges likely to support future platoons (nearly 3,000 bridges).

Abstract:
For rehabilitation of concrete pavements, resurfacing with a bonded concrete overlay (BCO) may provide significantly longer life and reduced maintenance costs. Two important issues to consider in rehabilitation are bonding and rapid reopening of resurfaced sections. The purpose of accelerated or expedited concrete paving is to limit the duration of lane closure and inconvenience to the public. Expedited BCOs offer an economical method for substantially extending rigid pavement life. Research for expedited BCOs in El Paso and Fort Worth, Texas, has been carried out for the Texas Department of T

Abstract:
Concrete technology has continued to advance throughout the years to meet the demands of designers and innovative structural systems. With the advent of high-performance concrete (HPC), which contains large amounts of cementitious materials, the investigation of the impact of concrete temperature development during hydration on concrete performance is of keen interest. Match-curing technology was used to investigate the influence of concrete temperature development during hydration on the mechanical and material property performance of prestressed and precast HPC beams.

Abstract:
A nationwide survey on design methods for achieving adequate skid resistance on hot-mix asphalt concrete pavements was conducted. Information was collected on the design practices used by 48 state departments of transportation (DOTs) in the contiguous United States. Survey findings show that the emphasis placed on the skid resistance aspects in various state DOT design procedures vary considerably. Based on the data collected, 21 out of 48 state highway agencies either do not have any design guidelines specifically addressing pavement skid behavior or assume that adequate skid resistance may b

Abstract:
<p>A new class of spread slab beam bridges has recently been developed and implemented in Texas. The research questions addressed in this paper are: how long can such a low profile bridge system span in either a simply supported or continuous form? And, can construction operations be accelerated, by design? An effective way to extend the span length is to utilize post-tensioning and to make the bridge continuous over several spans. In order to explore the maximum span limit, the design of a multi-span prestressed concrete spread slab beam bridge is investigated. In addition, a thicker an
