Guidelines For Detection Analysis And Treatment Of Materials Related Distress In Concrete Pavements Fhwa Rd 01 164 Guidelines Description And Use PDF Download

"The performance of concrete pavements can be adversely affected by the concrete's inability to resist the environment in which it is placed. This lack of durability can occur even when the structural design of the pavement is adequate. The distresses that result from this lack of durability are referred to herein as materials-related distress (MRD). This report documents the investigation of MRD in concrete pavements and the development of a set of systematic guidelipes for the evaluation of MRD. The guidelines developed cover three major areas of MRD: field distress surveys, pavement sampling, and sample handling; laboratory testing, data analysis, and interpretation; and treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention. This report is Volume 3 of a three-volume set, and documents the results of the use of the guidelines on in-service concrete pavements. The other two reports are: FHWA-RD-01- 163, Volume 1 : Final Report FHWA-RD-01- 164, Volume 2: Guidelines Description and Use"--Technical report documentation page.
