TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 1947 contains 18 papers that explore a variety of topics in pavement design. Papers include an investigation of the effects of dowel misalignment on joint opening behavior in concrete pavements; an evaluation of pavement slab strain as a result of environmental loads; the effect of slab curling on the development of cracking at saw-cut notches and long-term joint movement in highway concrete pavement sections; the response of early-age, continuously reinforced concrete pavement to environmental loading; and testing stainless steel hollow-tube and epoxy-coated steel dowels for long-term performance to reduce pavement lifecycle costs in jointed concrete slabs.
