| dc.description.abstract | Temperature can have an impact on concrete pavements and can reduce long term performance. When concrete pavements are restrained and temperature changes occur this can lead to cracking. This thesis examines the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of concrete made with aggregates from all major pits in Oklahoma. Lastly, the internal temperature gradients produced by various curing methods were evaluated to investigate the impact on the internal temperatures at setting. This work is critical to the adoption of the MEPDG software for pavement design in the state of Oklahoma. | |
