摘要: |
In recent years, concrete pavements are being constructed in several stretches of the highways in India. These pavements are advantageous in terms of their less maintenance and longer service lives as compared to conventional bituminous pavements. Jointed plain concrete pavements with standard panel sizes are suitable for highways catering heavy traffic, whereas short paneled concrete pavements can be effective for low to moderate traffic volumes. This paper presents a numerical study to investigate the behavior of short paneled concrete pavement. A three dimensional finite element model has been developed for the analysis of short paneled concrete pavement. Aggregate interlocked joints, which are formed below the saw-cut in between the adjacent panels, have also been modeled. The flexural stresses are computed due to wheel loads at critical locations and temperature differentials. The results are compared with those from a conventional jointed concrete pavement. The effects of slab thickness and panel size on flexural stresses have been investigated, which showsa promising decrease in slab thickness requirement due to reduction in panel sizes. |
