Improved Analysis Tool For Concrete Pavement

Current Situation Concrete slabs used on roadways are often evaluated or designed through closed-form analytical solutions based on the work of Westergaard. Many finite-element-based programs are also available that model the concrete as two-dimensional rectangular plates supported by a bed of springs. These approaches may not accurately account for design and construction details and are limited in their ability to predict pavement structural responses. Recent advances in three dimensional finite element (3D-FE) models address many of these limitations. 3D-FE models can simulate more realistic pavement behaviors, such as non-uniform load distributions, multi-wheel loads, pavement cracks, and nonlinear dynamic analysis.
