Why Precast Concrete Pavement?Heavy traffic volumes (highways & airports) dictate that repairs & rehab are carried out rapidlyThe advantages of precast pavement are:o better quality concrete, o better curing conditions – at fabrication plant, o minimal weather restrictions on placemento reduced delay prior to opening to traffic – no on-site curing of
concrete.AND, precast concrete has a great track record in structural applications (bridges, buildings, etc)
![Page 5: Precast Concrete Pavement for Intermittent Concrete ......¾Aggressive T2 effort underway by FHWA /AASHTO-TIG, creating market demand. ¾Initial costs are higher compared to conventional](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022071511/61301b1c1ecc51586943e1df/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Precast pavement systems are fabricated off-site, transported to the project site and installed on a prepared foundation (existing pavement or re-graded foundation).
The system components require minimal field curing or time to achieve strength before opening to traffic.
These systems are used for rapid repair, rehabilitation and reconstruction of asphalt and concrete pavements.
Precast Concrete Pavement Systems

Intermittent repairs – plain concrete panelso Full-depth or full panel replacement
Continuous Applications (longer length/larger area) – Rehab of ACP or PCCP; bridge approach slabs o Conventional jointed systemso Prestressed panels – fewer active
joints

NJ I-295 (June 2008) Intermittent Repairs using the Super Slab System
Process:o Sawcut repair boundaries in advanceo Night of repair – remove damaged panel; prepare base; drill dowel
holes in existing panels; insert dowel bars; install precast panelo Next night – patch dowel slots; underseal panel

systemo Now, developing a generic system for intermittent
repair applications
