Development of empirical-mechanistic based faulting models in the design of plain jointed concrete pavements /

An in-depth study of factors and causes of faulting distress are presented. The results of a laboratory and a finite element investigation explain the behavior of joints in jointed concrete pavement systems in terms of load transfer derived through aggregate interlock and dowels. These results hav...
