Research Brief

Project ID: 0092-05-05
Title: Analysis of Concrete Pavement Joints to Predict the Onset of Distress
PI: Robert O. Rasmussen
The Transtec Group, Inc.
Project: Reconstructed in 1993, a 15-mile segment of jointed concrete pavement on I 90/94 showed cracking and potholing after just five years. Researchers will seek to identify the source of the problem with this jointed concrete pavement, then develop necessary changes to specifications and recommendations for repair.
Task List:
  1. Analyze Pavement Distress
  2. Identify Remedies
  3. Review WisDOT Standards and Specifications
  4. Develop Final Report
Start Date: November 9, 2004
End Date: November 9, 2005
Extension: May 31, 2006, December 31, 2007, July 31, 2007, October 31, 2007
