  3. Objective Generate information from full-scale tests (NAPTF) to assist in the improvement of current design procedures for AC overlay on rigid airport pavements.

  4. Scope Evaluate the initiation and propagation of bottom-up reflection cracks due to temperature effect acting alone (thermally induced fatigue), assuming intact PCC slabs. Nunn, M., 1st RILEM 1989

  5. Key Parameters 1. Pavement Temperature: T=32oF, DT=17oF

  6. Key Parameters 2. Horizontal Displacement at Joint: 15 mils

  7. Key Parameters 3. Loading Rate ? 4. AC-PCC Interface Bond ?

  8. Progress Since 2011 • Laboratory tests • Construction, instrumentation, and data collection • Temperature Effect Simulation System (TESS) tune-up and enhancements • Trial test
