In the fall of 1984, the Kansas Department of Transportation constructed a project involving cracking, seating, and overlaying a portland cement concrete pavement. The project is located in Wyandotte County on K-7 highway, north of K-32. This project is on the west side of the Kansas City metropolitan area. Eight experimental sections and one control section were stipulated for this project. One section of regular construction was selected for the control section. Four of the eight test sections were designated to be cracked at 0.9 m (3 ft) centers, and the other four were cracked at 1.5 m (5 ft) centers. One half of each spacing pattern was saw cut at the quarter points of the 18.7 m (61.5 ft) panels [approximately 4.6 m (15 ft) spacing, minimum 127 mm (5 in.) deep, maximum 13 mm (0.5 in.) wide] prior to cracking. Four sections had minimal joint repair; four had normal joint patching. There have been no easy determinants as to why the transverse cracking is low in some sections, and high in others. In some years it appears to be one factor, but the next year the factor has appeared to change. After 10 years there is no difference attributable to the cracking spacing, probably because both spacings are too large to adequately distribute the thermal movements. Slightly better performance was noted in sections that have minimal joint patching. More recent projects have used rubblizing as a rehabilitation technique. These have not shown significantly better performance than the cracking method. More investigation needs to be done to quantify the effect of various components that are used in this technique.

As with the previous two symposia, the 32 papers from the June/July, 1999, Seattle symposium present advances in the nondestructive testing of pavements using conventional falling weight deflectometer techniques and other promising techniques such as ground penetrating radar, rolling weight deflecto
Performance data for these sections were obtained from the Caltrans Pavement Condition Report (PCR) and were analyzed along with inventory data obtained from as-built sheets. In Phase II, seventeen (17) CS&O sections (eight (8) on the Central Coast and nine (9) in Northern California) were identified and examined. Performance data were extracted from the Caltrans PCR. As-built and maintenance history data were obtained from the Caltrans District 05 (D05) and District 02 (D02) offices. Data for these sections were combined with data from the Central Valley region (Phase I) to evaluate the performance of CS&O sections throughout California. Also, performance models were developed for three different regions, namely Central Valley (CV), Central Coast (CC), and Northern California (NCA).
This report from the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2), which is administered by the Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, focuses on improving the ability of highway agencies to design and construct long-lasting highway projects with minimal disruption to the traveling public.
