摘要:
A dowel assemblies for use in concrete pavement each comprise a welded seam carbon steel hollow tube and a pair of end caps. The end caps are attached to opposite axial ends of the hollow tube. The pavement comprising a fracture groove over the dowel.

Systems and methods for providing a running track having a reinforced base using post-tensioning are provided herein. In one exemplary configuration, the track comprises a reinforced concrete slab base that is poured over and around post-tensioning cables suspended therein. The post-tensioning cables include transverse cables that extend transversely across the base, and lengthwise cable structures extending lengthwise through the base. Each lengthwise cable structure includes a series of individual segments that are joined end-to-end to form respective continuous loops and are individually tensioned. The lengthwise cable structures thus exert compressive forces on the base that are continuous and uninterrupted about the circumferential length of the track. Moreover, the lengthwise cable segments are joined/tensioned from within voids initially formed within the concrete base and, after tensioning, these voids are filled with concrete to provide a concrete base having a uniform top surface that can also be covered in a running surface.

The present invention relates to a method for constructing a continuously reinforced concrete pavement including: the reinforcing steel bar arrangement step of moving reinforcing steel bar introducing/fixing equipment having guide tubes adapted to guide reinforcing steel bars to proper positions thereof and a reinforcing steel bar holding apparatus adapted to apply an instant tensile force to the reinforcing steel bars upon concrete casting to allow the reinforcing steel bars to be located at the proper positions thereof, and longitudinally arranging the reinforcing steel bars; the concrete casting step of casting concrete on top of the reinforcing steel bars arranged in the reinforcing steel bar arrangement step; and the finishing step of flattening the surface of the concrete cast in the concrete casting step by means of a paver.

This invention provides for an apparatus and method for prestressing concrete. The apparatus includes a tendon with a tensionable peripheral member and core members that can be releasably latched against the peripheral member in tension or compression. Methods are provided for constructing prestressed concrete slabs for joining the slabs to form a prestressed concrete pavement.

摘要:
Jointed concrete pavement is formed of concrete cured around a dowel. The dowel includes a welded seam carbon steel hollow tube and a pair of end caps. The end caps are attached to opposite axial ends of the hollow tube. The pavement comprises a fracture groove over the dowel.
