“…The dimensions of the panels used were 7.3 m × 1.83 m × 0.125 m. These panels were prestressed in order to strengthen them further and to reduce panel thickness. The panels are interconnected using a tongue and fork connection, as shown in Figure 9 consisted of a 1.5 inch of sand bedding over an 8inch thick granular base (Gaudelli & Shepler, 1987). This technique turned out to be unsuccessful, but led to the development of improved methods.…”

“…PCP allows us to construct or repair a concrete pavement in a limited time, which helps reduce the accidental risks related to traffic congestion (Chen & Chang, 2015;Syed & Sonparote, 2017). Based upon the traffic data collected by Missouri Department of Transport (DOT), the user costs incurred due to extended lane closure are reduced by 25% in case of application of PCP, as it requires the lane to be closed only for limited non-traffic durations (Gopalaratnam, Donahue, Davis, & Dailey, 2006). As PCP gained popularity, there have been multiple attempts to summarise and review various types of PCP technology (Priddy, Bly, & Flintsch, 2013;Olidis, Swan, & Saeed, 2010;Vaitkus, Gražulytė, Kleizienė, Vorobjovas, & Šernas, 2019).…”

Precast concrete pavement (PCP) has proven itself to be one of the most efficient methods for repair and replacement of concrete pavement, as well as for construction of new pavement in the areas of heavy traffic. The application of PCP ensures fast construction of concrete pavement without compromising the quality of concrete. This paper provides a brief of various types of PCP that have been used worldwide and their application in the repair of damaged pavement, continuous construction of pavement, Airfield application and temporary pavement construction. It further discusses critical aspects of PCP that require careful analysis prior to its field implementation. The paper specially focuses on panel dimensioning, load transfer mechanism, lifting arrangement, stacking arrangement, transportation and base preparation for PCP. Suitability of different types of PCP for varying site conditions has been discussed. Innovative developments related to PCP and the future scope of this technology have also been discussed.

“…Repairs using many connected precast prestressed panels can be used to replace a large pavement portion of an airfield facility (such as apron, taxiway or runway), or a highway. A highway example includes the construction of 305 m (1000 ft) long and 11.5 m (38 ft) wide precast prestressed concrete pavement on Interstate 57 near Sikeston, Missouri [7] . The individual panels were 11.5 m by 3.0 m (38 ft by 10 ft) ( Fig.…”

“…Sizeable panels can be produced if the panels can be prestressed. For example, precast prestressed panels used on a highway project in Missouri were 3 m by 11.5 m (10 ft by 38 ft) and about 250 mm (10 in) thick [7] . Availability of construction equipment.…”

The ability to rapidly repair damaged airfield sections is of paramount importance. It is imperative to restore flight operations in the shortest possible time. Currently, there are several methods that pertain to expedient airfield damage repair. One method uses cast-in-place, high-early-strength concrete. The cast-in-place procedure entails completely removing the damaged portion of airfield pavement and subsequently placing fresh concrete into the resulting void. A second method involves the use of precast concrete panels. The precast concrete panel procedure requires removing a damaged section of runway and replacing the damaged section with one or more precast panels. Obviously, the removed damaged section and the precast section must be congruent. This report details the precast concrete panel repair method, including its advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, this report summarizes information on repairs using single precast panels and repairs using several connected precast panels. There are several different methods that utilize single panel and connected panel repair. The most common of these are the Fort Miller Super-Slab ® Method, the Michigan method and the URETEK Method. Each of these options is discussed in detail.

Experimental and numerical study on the structural performance of the stainless steel ring strengthened removable dowel bar connection system

Traditional jointed plain concrete pavement (JPCP) systems cannot be reused after grouting fast-setting materials in the dowel slot. To achieve demountability, a removable dowel bar connection system is proposed in this paper. The severe stress concentration occurring in JPCP systems is mitigated by applying a stainless steel ring at the pavement joint surface. In the monotonic loading tests, different stainless steel ring thicknesses, lengths and the stainless steel tube thicknesses were considered. The effect of the stainless steel ring on the structural performance of the removable dowel bar connection system was studied in terms of the failure mode, the deflection response, ductility and the strain distribution and development. Besides, after being validated against experimental test results, the developed finite element model was used to conduct the extended parametric analysis, in which a close relationship was found between the ultimate load and the stainless steel ring length. To prevent the localised crushing failure, the maximum compressive stress at the joint surface was compared with the allowable bearing stress under service load. By using FEA data, an empirical equation was finally proposed to predict the ultimate loads of specimens with the proposed connection system.
