Book Description
Design investigations and limited testing of model and prototype slabs indicate that prestressed pavements permit a more efficient use of construction materials in terms of required pavement thickness. Prestressed pavements can be designed with fewer joints and with less probability of cracking than conventional rigid pavements, thereby promising extended pavement life and reduced maintenance requirements. Information relative to the design and construction of prestressed concrete pavements is presented. Recommendations are developed on planning, design, and areas of engineering investigation and research. Minimum tests are recommended for experimental highway pavements. Design variables are discussed with factors affecting design.

Book Description
This report from the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2), which is administered by the Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, provides guidance on the design, fabrication, construction, and maintenance of precast concrete pavement (PCP) systems. It includes an assessment of the state of the practice for PCP technology as well as guidelines for pavement selection, the decision-making process, and model specifications for PCP systems.

Book Description
"This publication is a combination of four documents on the use of precast concrete pavement systems (PCPS) and constitutes a state of the art report on this topic. The documents were developed through a cooperative agreement between the Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, PCI and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The topics include: Applications for Precast Concrete Pavements, Design and Maintenance of Precast Concrete Pavements, Manufacture of Precast Concrete Pavement Panels and Construction of Precast Concrete Pavement."--Publisher's website.

Book Description
This TechBrief describes the application of precast prestressed concrete pavement for new construction and for rehabilitation of existing asphalt and concrete pavements. The background of the development of precast prestressed pavement technology is briefly summarized. The details of several field trials of this innovative technology are presented, and recommendations for ensuring successful precast prestressed concrete pavement installation are provided.

Book Description
The general objective of this project was to monitor and evaluate the performance of prestressed (posttensioned) concrete pavement during the construction phase. The construction of this pavement was just south of Brookhaven, Miss. on U.S. Highway 84. This supplement containing Appendixes A and B summarizes the procedures used and the results obtained for instrumentation measurements made on the prestressed concrete pavement and the CRCP.
