A jointless concrete composite pavement
The present invention provides a pavement system that avoids the need for traditional contraction joints regardless of dimension of the pavement, a hitherto unknown property for exterior pavements. The concrete composite pavement, comprises (i) a gap-graded concrete first layer; (ii) a flexural-hardening fiber reinforced mortar second layer, wherein the gap-graded concrete comprises cement, water and coarse aggregate with particles size from 4 to 45 mm, preferably, from 8 to 16 mm; the flexural-hardening fiber reinforced mortar comprises cement; water, fine aggregate with a maximum particle size of not greater than 8 mm; fiber reinforcement comprising of synthetic and/or metal fibers having diameter of 10 to 500 microns and length of 3 to 35 mm; wherein the total thickness of the composite pavement is selected depending on the required maximum service point load, using the following formula H=(F/100)
