1 Lecture 3: Stresses in Rigid Pavements
2 Nature of Responses under Flexible and Rigid Plates Flexible plate: Uniform Contact Pressure Variable Deflection Profile Flexible Plate Rigid Plate plate: Non-Uniform Contact Pressure Equal Deflection Rigid Plate
3 Comparison of Deflections at the Surface Rigid vs. Flexible Plate The deflection under a rigid plate is 79% of that under a flexible plate.
4 Contact Pressure and Deflection Calculation under the Rigid plate Ullidtz (1987) gave the distribution of contact pressure under a rigid plate as: Notice that the distribution of the contact pressure is a function of radial offset from the load centerline. By integrating a point load over the contact area of the plate, the deflection can be calculated as: Assuming m=0.5, the surface deflection at centerline can be calculated as:
5 Stresses in Rigid Pavements A. Stresses due to Environment Warping (or Curling) Stresses Stresses due to temperature differential or change in humidity (temperature or moisture gradient) Location: Interior Loading Edge loading Corner Loading Shrinkage/Expansion Stresses B. Stresses due to External Loading Such as stresses induced by traffic loads Location: Interior Loading (sufficiently away from the joints- no discontinuity effect) Edge loading Corner Loading C. Other Stresses Such as frictional forces between the slab and foundation
6 Warping Stress - Day Time Slab Surface Temperature > Slab Bottom Temperature
7 Warping Stress - Night Time Slab Bottom Temperature > Slab Surface Temperature
8 Constrained Transverse Joints Slab Surface Temperature > Slab Bottom Temperature

12 Radius of Relative Stiffness Definition l 4 3 Eh 2 12k(1 ) n = E = l = k = h = Poisson Ratio Modulus of Elasticity (psi) Radius of Relative Stiffness (in) Modulus of Subgrade Reaction (pci) Slab Thickness (in)
13 Westergaard s Model of Subgrade Reaction Elastic layered theory can t be applied for jointed rigid pavements due to the fact that one of the assumptions of the layered theory was that layers are infinitely long in horizontal direction ( no effect of discontinuity at joints). To solve this problem Westergaard (1925) assumed that a rigid pavement could be considered as a slab on a Winkler foundation. In other words, the foundation reaction (or vertical stress) equals to the deflection times a constant (k) called modulus of subgrade reaction. Note that the modulus of subgrade reaction (k) has unit of (pci).

18 Slab Expansion/Contraction z CL e Dt d z = C = L = Joint opening (or change in slab length, in.) Base/slab frictional restrain factor (0.65 for stabilized bases; 0.80 for granular bases) Slab length (in.) e = PCC coefficient of thermal expansion by aggregate type (e.g., 6.0x10-6 /F for gravel; 3.8x10-6 /F for limestone) Dt = d = Maximum temperature range Shrinkage coefficient of concrete (e.g., in./in. for indirect tensile strength of 500 psi)

22 Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) A falling weight deflectometer (FWD) is a device designed to simulate deflection of a pavement surface caused by a fast-moving truck. The FWD generates a load pulse by dropping a weight. This load pulse is transmitted to the pavement through a 300-millimeter (mm) diameter circular load plate. The load pulse generated by the FWD momentarily deforms the pavement under the load plate into a dish or bowl shape. Based on the force imparted to the pavement and the shape of the deflection basin, it is possible to estimate the stiffness of the pavement layers by using various computational methods.
23 Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) General Definitions Non-destructive test equipment for pavements. Imparts an impact load to a pavement structure. Measures deflection of the pavement surface at different radial offsets. Different types based on the application : Light Weight Deflectometer (LWD), Falling weight Deflectometer (FWD), and Heavy Weight Deflectometer (HWD). LWD HWD FWD

Temperature and load data used with deflections to back-calculate pavement structure characteristics.
