Joints in jointed concrete Pavement are designed to control against randomly occurred cracks within slabs, which may be caused by temperature or moisture variation. The advantage of these artificial cracks (joints) over naturally occurred cracks are easy access of protections, such as installation of joint seal and load transfer mechanism. The potential benefits of joint seals are to prevent infiltration of surface water through the joint into underlying soil and intrusion of incompressible materials (debris, fine size aggregate) in to the joint, which may prevent weakening of underlying soils and spallings due to excessive compressive stress, respectively. For the adequate design of joint seal, horizontal variation of joint widths (horizontal joint movements) are essential inputs. Based on long-term in-situ joint movement data of sixteen jointed concrete pavement sections in Long Term Performance Pavement Seasonal Monitoring Program (LTPP SMP), it was indicated that considerable Portion of joints showed no horizontal movements with change in temperature. This Phenomenon is called 'Joint Freezing'. Possible cause for joint freezing is that designed penetrated cracks do not occur at a joint. In this study, a model for the prediction of the ratio of freezing joints in a particular pavement sections is proposed. In addition, possible effects of joint freezing against pavement performance are addressed.

One of the most important factors accounting for the structural capacity of concrete pavement is load transfer efficiency. Load transfer efficiency is affected by slab temperature gradient, construction of dowel bars, degree of aging, and crack width. The purpose of this study is to determine the patterns of load transfer efficiency of concrete pavement; to determine the factors that affect the load transfer efficiency; and to present the proper measuring method of load transfer efficiency. As a result from this study, load transfer efficiency was affected primarily by the average temperature in concrete slab. Load transfer efficiency decreased with decreasing temperature and increasing crack width. For the sections with dowel bars, there were little differences in load transfer efficiency regardless of temperature changes. For the sections without dowel bars, however, there on great losses of load transfer efficiency at low temperatures. For the old pavement, even in the sections with dowel bars, the load transfer efficiency reduced as the temperature dropped For the sections in this study, 1.4% reduction of the load transfer efficiency was observed for each $1^{\circ}C$ drop in the slab temperature.

도로는 국내 물류를 담당하는 중요한 기반시설로 국내 경제성장의 중추적인 역할을 담당하고 있다. 특히, 1970년대 개통된 경부고속도로는 우리나라의 대동맥으로 산업 성장의 파급효과를 가져오는 기반이 되었고, 공학적인 차원에서도 도로 포장재료를 경험 및 과학적으로 분석하여 적용하는 계기로 도로공학발전의 초석이 되었다. 과거에 적용된 도로 포장재료는 기술자의 경험에 의존하여 배합설계가 진행되었으며, 중차량의 비중이 많은 지역은 강성포장을 적용하고, 상대적으로 중차량이 적은 구간은 연성포장을 적용하는 설계를 따랐다. 하지만, 강성포장을 대표하는 시멘트 콘크리트 포장은 시공상의 복잡함과 시멘트 콘크리트 특성상 강도발현을 위해서 일정기간 이상의 양생일수가 필요하므로, 도로건설의 인프라 구축이 시급한 지역에서는 사용의 제약이 따른다. 연성포장을 대표적하는 재료로는 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장을 들 수 있다. 강성포장보다는 상대적으로 시공상의 편리함과 일정기간의 양생이 필요하지 않아 도로 포장재료로서 그 적용성이 우수하다. 과거에는 아스팔트 콘크리트 포장의 종류가 단순화되어 표층, 기층에 대표되는 몇몇 혼합물이 도로 포장재료로 사용되었다. 도로공학의 학문적 발달과 함께 도로포장의 전반적인 기술이 향상되고 있다. 과거의 도로 기능은 국가 경제발전을 위한 산업용 원자재의 운반이 주요 기능을 담당하고 있는 반면, 국민의 경제적 수준이 증대되고 자가용의 보급이 보편화되면서 도로 이용의 주체가 국민 개개인으로 변화되고 있고, 그 요구조건도 다양화되고 있다. 이에 발맞추어 도로공학의 기술적 향상으로 다양한 기능을 발휘할 수 있는 도로포장재료가 개발되고 있으며, 대표적인 제품으로는 배수성 포장, 반강성 포장, 보수성 포장, 탄성 포장, 저소음 포장 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 기능성 포장의 하나인 저소음 포장의 특성 중 생산성능을 평가하였다. 생산성능이란 저소음포장을 현장 플랜트에서 생산하였을 경우의 특성을 분석하는 과정으로, 실내 실험으로 최적화된 재료의 배합은 이상적인 조건을 적용하여 결정된 것으로 입고된 현장 골재 및 생산 플랜트 조건에 따른 그 배합 및 물성이 변동을 가져올 수 있다. 특히, 저소음 포장은 기존의 아스팔트 포장과 달리 적용되는 골재, 아스팔트의 재료가 고성능을 발휘하기 위하여 특수한 재료를 적용해야 한다. 배합설계에서도 개립도 아스팔트 혼합물에 적용되는 내구성분석 절차를 따라야 하므로, 실내 배합설계 혼합물과 현장 생산 혼합물간의 물리적 특성에 차이를 나타낼 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 실내 및 현장 혼합물의 전반적인 물리적 특성의 차이를 분석하여 저소음 포장의 현장 생산성능을 확인하였다. 분석요소로는 혼합물의 기초물성면에서는 밀도, 공극률을 분석하였으며, 실내 내구성면에서는 마샬안정도, 잔류안정도를 분석하여 실내 및 현장 혼합물의 물성차이를 분석하였다. 기초물성을 평가할 수 있는 밀도와 공극률에서는 생산 현장 혼합물이 실내 혼합물 보다 높은 밀도와 낮은 공극률을 나타내고 있으며, 이에 상관하여 강도특성을 분석할 수 있는 마샬안정도도 생산 현장 혼합물이 다소 높은 강도를 발휘하였다. 또한, 수분에 대한 안정성을 평가하는 인자인 잔류 안정도에서는 실내 및 현장 혼합물 모두 우수한 성능을 발휘하였다.

Recently, researches on the performance warranty contracting has been going on to improve construction quality in road pavement area. The performance warranty contracting gives construction companies opportunity to select materials and methods freely while asks them to maintain a certain level of performance during a given period. To introduce the performance warranty contracting in Korea, lots of research results on performance indicator and threshold value of asphalt pavement have been made to be included in the warranty specification. However, research effort on the performance indicator and threshold value of concrete pavement which is commonly constructed in expressway and national highway has not been enough. In this study, the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of the concrete pavement were investigated by reviewing literatures on cases of the performance warranty contracting in European countries and states of the US. Major distresses influencing the performance of jointed concrete pavement were investigated and analyzed to be compared to the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of foreign countries.

The current standards and specifications for the road pavement construction have been developed based on materials and construction methods. The pavements constructed in accordance with those specifications do not guarantee high performance of pavements since they do not consider long-term performance of pavements. Therefore, as part of the study to develop performance-based construction standards for pavements, the payment adjustment methods based on the pavement performance are currently being developed. This paper presents preliminary studies performed to develop the payment adjustment methods when there is deficiency in the concrete slab thickness that is one oi the most important factors for the pavement design and construction. First, the payment adjustment methods in USA were investigated. Then, the AASHTO failure equation, the relationship between slab thickness and stress, and the relationship between stress level and pavement life were employed to propose the payment adjustment concepts based on the pavement performance for the deficient slab thickness. The variation in the slab thickness according to measurement locations was investigated by taking cores. In addition, the measurement methods of slab thickness and the variation of measured thicknesses depending on performers were analyzed, and finally the methodology to develop the thickness deficiency ranges for the use in the payment adjustment methods was proposed.

The environmental load of concrete pavement can be categorized by temperature and moisture loads, which mean temperature distribution, and drying shrinkage and creep in the concrete slab. In this study, a method calculating the environmental load essential to mechanistic design of airport concrete pavement was developed. First, target area and design slab thickness were determined. And, the concrete temperature distribution with slab depth was predicted by a pavement temperature prediction program to calculate equivalent linear temperature difference. The concrete drying shrinkage was predicted by improving an existing model to calculate differential shrinkage equivalent linear temperature difference considering regional relative humidity. In addition, the stress relaxation was considered in the drying shrinkage. Eventually, the equivalent linear temperature difference due to temperature and the differential shrinkage equivalent linear temperature difference due to moisture were combined into the total equivalent linear temperature difference as terminal environmental load. The environmental load of eight civilian and two military airports which represent domestic regional weather conditions were calculated and compared by the method developed in this study to show its application.

The pavement system constructed by tieing a number of precast concrete slabs employing prestressing techniques is called the precast prestressed concrete pavement. The behavior of this type of pavement system under post-tensioning was analyzed using a finite element model. First, the optimal number of anchors was determined by investigating the distribution of compressive stresses in the pavement system due to post-tensioning. Then, the effects of the parameters such as the horizontal resistance of underlying layers, the pavement length, the slab thickness, and the bearing area of the anchorage on the distribution of compressive stresses were analyzed. The horizontal resistance of underlying layers induced the loss of compressive stresses, and the loss increased in the middle of the pavement. As the pavement length increased or the slab thickness decreased, the stress loss due to the horizontal resistance of underlying layers became larger. However, the bearing area of the anchorage where the compressive forces were applied did not much affect the distribution of compressive stresses.
