Premature Longitudinal Cracking Investigation on Unbonded Concrete Overlay

项目名称：	Premature Longitudinal Cracking Investigation on Unbonded Concrete Overlay
摘要：	The objective of this project is to determine the cause of longitudinal cracking in an unbonded concrete overlay (with short joint spacing) on an I-72 experimental feature project. This project will evaluate the existing literature and design procedures for potential mechanisms that are contributing to the premature distresses as exhibited on the eastbound stretch of I-72 east of the Riverton exit. These distresses have not occurred in the westbound lanes of I-72 that utilized a nonwoven geotextile fabric interlayer. Specifically, this study will investigate past published testing to assess the interlayer impact on unbonded concrete overlay response and performance. Additionally, a laboratory investigation is proposed to supplement the findings in the literature and to confirm the mechanism(s) causing the observed, premature longitudinal cracking.
