Title:

LTPP DATA ANALYSIS: RELATIVE PERFORMANCE OF JOINTED PLAIN CONCRETE PAVEMENT WITH SEALED AND UNSEALED JOINTS
Cover of LTPP DATA ANALYSIS: RELATIVE PERFORMANCE OF JOINTED PLAIN CONCRETE PAVEMENT WITH SEALED AND UNSEALED JOINTS

Accession Number:

Record Type:

Monograph

Abstract:

This project compared, based on the data available from the Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) studies, the performance of Jointed Plain Concrete Pavement (JPCP) designed and constructed with unsealed joints to that of JPCP with sealed joints. The five LTPP sites suitable for this analysis are all located in the dry western region of the United States, for which reason it would be unwise to extrapolate the results of this analysis to other regions of the country that receive more precipitation. The report is organized in five chapters. Chapter 1 provides an introduction and discusses the research approach. Chapter 2 contains the results of a literature review. Chapter 3 describes the analysis methods. Chapter 4 presents a project-level evaluation of the relative performance of JPCP with unsealed and sealed joints at each one of the five selected sites. Chapter 5 presents conclusions on the relative performance of JPCP with unsealed and sealed joints, drawn from the project-level evaluations, and recommendations for further research.
