A Study of an Experimental Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement, Interstate No. 59, Jones County, Mississippi
Two experimental continuously reinforced concrete pavements were constructed in Mississippi to obtain first-hand knowledge on performance under local conditions. The final report on the initially constructed pavement, known as the DeSoto County Project, was published in April, 1965. This report deals with the second pavement, or the Jones County Project. The Jones County Project, built in the winter and early spring of 1962, consists of 6.77 miles of 4-lane divided highway. The pavement of the northbound roadway is reinforced with smooth welded wire fabric and the pavement of the southbound roadway contains deformed steel bars. All of the experimental pavement is 8 inches thick and the reinforcing steel is at mid-depth of the slab. One mile of 9-inch conventionally reinforced pavement adjacent to the north end of the experimental pavement is included in the study, for purposes of comparison. Major experimental features are (1) type of reinforcement--smooth welded wire fabric and deformed bars, (2) percentage of longitudinal steel--0.5, 0.6 and 0.7 for each type of reinforcement and (3) cast-in-place, full-width concrete anchor lugs to restrain longitudinal movement of the ends of the continuously reinforced pavement.
