The Zuidtangent is a free high quality public transport lane between the city of Haarlem and Schiphol Airpoprt. The full trajectoryi s built in continouusly reinforced concrete. In this paper some design aspects are described. Also the use of concrete as a wearing course on bridges and in tunnels is...

In the Netherlands Rijkswaterstaat is the authority in charge among others of the construction of highways. The department Noord Holland of Rijkswaterstaat has chosen a continuously reinforced concrete roadbase for the construction of the 9 km long new highway section between the cities of Haarlem and Hoofddorp. This choise was...

In June 2000, a new motorway link (E25-E40) was inaugurated in Liège to solve transit and local traffic problems. It serves more than 65,000 vehicles a day in both directions. With multiple technical, environmental and security-related constraints, the 5 kilometres of this infrastructure prefigure numerous works such as bridges, roads,...

The work was undertaken by contractors Ooms Avenhorn. Work took place in the months of July, August, September and October 1995. The roundabout was opened for traffic on 6I October 1995 (photo 6). More than two years after opening of the roundabout and the road metalling associated with it, it...

In the Netherlands Rijkswaterstaat is the authority in charge among others of the construction of highways. The department Utrecht of Rijkswaterstaat has chosen a continuously reinforced concrete roadbase for the construction of the 7 km long new highway scction between the cities of Bunnik and I Jtrecht. This choise was...

The experimental continuously reinforced concrete (C. R. C. P.) road section has been realized in 1975 on a Romanian principal road, in a mountain area. There are presented the design method, the materials, the technology and the behavior after twenty years of traffic.

As it is well known, in Belgium since the stast of the 1970s, continuously reinforced concrete has to a large extent been used as concrete pavement for motorways. On the bridges, asphalt was sometimes applied, which made it necessary to use expensive anchorages on both sides of the bridges to...

On the European route E35 near Utrecht in the Netherlands a new highway section has been built. The authority in charge has chosen a continuously reinforced concrete roadbase. A monitoring program has been started to collect data from the pavement behaviour. The data will be used fnr rnmparing the chosen...

Roundabouts have already been used in Belgium for several years to regulate traffic at major road intersections. The surfaces at roundabouts are particularly subject to tangential stresses that result from centrifugal forces and from the overload on the outside wheels by the more or less significant tilting of the vehicles...

The main runway of Lorient-Lann Bihoud airport was overlayed with continuously reinforced concrete in 1989. This operation is examplary because from the technical viewpoint it is still today the only one in Europe. This runway is used now for eight years by civil and military traffic. The cracking development is...

This paper describes a structural design method developed for composite pavement which is composed of an asphalt surface course (ASC) and a continuously reinforced concrete base course (CRCB). The design method is based on the fatigue analysis of CRCB. In the analysis, loading and thermal stresses in (2RU13 are calculated...

Continuously Reinforced Concrete (CRC), invented in the United-States in 1921, has been developing in France since 1983, in the following contexts: - New constructions (50 km of motorway) The structures chosen are alternately: • CRC + lean concrete • CRC + bituminous concrete + stabilized capping layer - Strengthening of...
