Every step- small or large- towards making our pavement design procedures more mechanistic and field data-based, gets us closer to more durable infrastructure. With this goal in mind, we are partnered with Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) in developing a state-wide concrete material properties library. At this library, state engineers can check out concrete properties such as strength, stiffness, the coefficient of thermal expansion and drying shrinkage to design pavement sections in their region. The test results database will be ready for use in the newly developed mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide set forward by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO).
