Concrete Pavement Research at RTA Pavement Ride Quality
The presentation on Cold Weather Paving contains research information which is not yet approved for release. We hope to be able to load that presentation in the near future
Concrete Industrial Pavement Design
This forum addressed both concrete road pavements & concrete industrial pavements. Presentations made addressed concrete mix designs, design & construction aspects, as well as current information about diamond grinding of concrete road pavements in Australia. Concrete Industrial Pavements: Client requirements Pavement guidelines Subgrade and sub-base Design methods Flatness and levelness...
Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete for Industrial slab on ground pavements
The ASCP forum on Industrial Pavements provided valuable information on design, detailing, materials and construction issues related to industrial pavements. It also highlighted several differing opinions and challenges to existing practices. This presentation by Royce Ratcliffe covers: Fibres vs conventional reinforcement Testing of fibres How fibres increase load carrying capacity...
Properties of Fibre Concrete for Industrial Pavements – Synthetic Macro Fibres
The ASCP forum on Industrial Pavements provided valuable information on design, detailing, materials and construction issues related to industrial pavements. It also highlighted several differing opinions and challenges to existing practices. This presentation by Ryan Pearce covers: Issues discussed; traditional methods of drying shrinkage crack control, different types of fibre...
Design Methodology for Load Transfer at Joints in Industrial Concrete Slabs and Pavements
The ASCP forum on Industrial Pavements provided valuable information on design, detailing, materials and construction issues related to industrial pavements. It also highlighted several differing opinions and challenges to existing practices.
