Establish Inputs for the New Rigid Component of the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG)
Each design input in the Mechanistic-Empirical Design Guide (MEPDG) required for the design of Jointed Plain Concrete Pavements (JPCPs) is introduced and discussed in this report. Best values for Pennsylvania conditions were established and recommended for each input by considering: 1) typical values suggested in the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) publications and databases, 2) recommendations in the MEPDG documentations-based on nationwide data and 3) laboratory/field test performed in different tasks over the duration of three years for this study.
