The survey shows that 30 m2 out of the entire 3.8 × 104 m2 pavement exhibits potholes and alligator cracks. Other surface cracks are also found, including regular longitudinal cracks, short hairline cracks, bubble cracks, and ring cracks. Rutting and shoving are not observed on the pavement. The causes of pavement distresses are discussed by analyzing the pavement mechanical response with actual traffic composition. Research results indicate that the regular longitudinal cracks occurring at ribs near wheelpaths are due to fatigue damage. Short hair cracking and bubble cracking are mainly related to construction defects. Alligator cracks are the results of the development of regular, short hair and bubble cracks lacking effective maintenance. Potholes are induced by the cracking and moisture ingression.展开更多

Cracks of deck pavement are summarized on crack length and width to get a clear view of their propagations. Traffic surveys including traffic volume, axle load and vehicle speed were also conducted to assess their influences. Samples taken on-site were tested with pulling-out test and fatigue test to benchmark their properties. According to the inspection and tests results, it is concluded that the cracks are induced by rutting and fatigue. Lack of fatigue resistance, not well bonded to the steel deck and insufficient high temperature stability are supposed to be the main reasons as well as high density of low speed, excessively overloaded trucks.展开更多

Influence of surfacing modulus on the strain state of the overlay is analyzed for the purpose of the optimal design of the overlay structure. Analysis results show that the deformation of the whole bridge structure has no evident influence on the stress state of the overlay. The key factor of the overlay design is the transverse tensile strain in the overlay above the upper edge of web plate of rib. The stress state of the overlay is influenced evidently by the modulus of rigidity transform overlay. And the stress state of the overlay can be optimized and lowered by increasing the modulus and thickness of rigidity transform overlay, The fatigue test has been done to evaluate the fatigue performance and modulus of different deck pavement materials such as epoxy asphalt, SBS modified asphalt, rosphalt asphalt which can provide reference for deck pavement structure design.展开更多
