High performance concrete pavements

Under Test and Evaluation Project 30 (TE-30), High-Performance Concrete Pavement (HPCP), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is exploring the applicability of innovative portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement design and construction concepts in the United States. These innovative concepts, ranging from trapezoidal cross sections to alternative dowel bar materials to fiber-reinforced concrete, all share the same TE-30 goal of providing long-lasting, economical PCC pavements that meet the specific performance requirements of their particular application.
