Deficiencies
Major shortcomings of JPCP designs based on
1972-1986 versions of the AASHTO Guide :
inadequate joint load transfer,
long joint spacing,
erosion of base/subbase,
poor subdrainage
etc.
Deterioration occurs early
Rehabilitation needed
Development of Supplemental
AASHTO Design Procedure for
JPCP
Development, Validation,
Adoption:
1998 Supplemental Rigid
Developed under NCHRP Project 1-30
Pavement
Design Procedure
(University
of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign)
Validated under FHWA/LTPP research study
(ERES Consultants/ARA)
Adopted by AASHTO as Supplementary Rigid Pavement Design
Procedure (1998)
