HF-07-004 Integrated Materials and Construction Practices for Concrete Pavement.pdf
Concrete Pavement Manual Available

Co-authored by CTLGroup, ACPA, PCA, and several other concrete experts, the Integrated Materials and Construction Practices for Concrete Pavement: A State-of-the-Practice Manual (IMCP Manual) is the new, essential resource for the concrete pavement community.

Released by the National Concrete Pavement Technology Center at Iowa State University, the 350-page manual covers the entire spectrum of concrete pavement construction. It provides information on technologies, tests, and new practices to optimize material selection, mix design, and construction practices. The focus is on concrete and concrete ingredients and how concrete performance is affected by the interaction of the material concrete with pavement construction and design.

PCCP Intersections Design and Construction in Washington State

The primary objective of this study was to summarize information related to the use of portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP) for urban intersection construction in Washington State.  PCCP construction has been used in Washington State since the early 1900s, but only since 1994 has the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) begun reconstructing a selection of urban intersections with PCCP.  Statewide, fifteen PCCP intersections have been constructed on state highways, and more will be built in the future.  PCCP intersections eliminate the significant rutting problems that sometimes occur with asphalt-surfaced roadways.  This report includes lessons learned about PCCP intersection construction costs, life cycle costs, traffic control/staging, design and construction considerations, and quality control issues.  Download a free copy.
