Abstract

Airfield pavements begin a gradual deterioration from several sources, including traffic load and environmental conditions. To achieve its intended design life, routine maintenance, repair, and rehabilitation should be performed. There are considerable research and studies conducted on the design and practice of pavements rehabilitation/overlay for typical airfield pavements. However, most of the existing guidelines and studies are only suitable for pavements with conventional structures. There has been no detailed investigation into the practice of airfield asphalt overlay for non-conventional pavement structures, such as chicken claw /Cakar Ayam pavement system and nailed-slab system. In the present article, challenges and issues for airfield asphalt overlay design for non-conventional pavement structures were examined based on an actual runway rehabilitation project in one of the major airports in Indonesia in 2015. The overlay design procedure, the evaluation of the existing pavement condition, including visual surveys and deflection tests, and the pre-overlay treatments were also discussed. In addition, a finite element (FE) simulation to model the non-conventional pavement structure was developed to calculate the required overlay thickness. The result showed that, during the overlay design of non-conventional pavement structure, data from falling weight deflectometer (FWD) could not be directly used to estimate the back-calculated layers moduli because of the difference in the geometric features of the pavement structure. Moreover, the FE model can be a robust tool to simulate the complex three-dimensional geometric features of a non-conventional pavement and important loading conditions, such as interface shear bond of overlay, that are usually not available in other tools, such as FAARFIELD. Finally, this study showed that the additional asphalt overlay could reduce the fatigue stress at the bottom of the existing slab and vertical stress at the top of the subgrade, resulting in overall smaller stress levels

Abstract

Concrete box-girder structure is considered the thin-walled structure, undergoing deformation and forces, as well as having structural rigidity in three dimensional directions. However, it’s commonly modeled as 1D structure for the sake of design practicality, which influences the numerical result of its dynamic properties when compared to both real time SHMS and field test result. To see how far the difference of the dynamic properties between 1D, 2D, and 3D model of concrete box-girder structure, the concrete box-girder structure is modeled as 1D (frame), 2D (shell), and 3D (solid) element with MIDAS Civil 2019. Considering the allowable deflection and stress limited by design code, concrete box-girder structure is modeled and analyzed as linearly elastic material. The dynamic properties obtained from these 3 models were compared with those obtained from real time SHMS and field test. These results indicate that both natural frequency and period of 2D and 3D models are close to those of real time SHMS and field test. However, the natural frequency of 1D model is slightly larger than the real SHMS and field test, indicating that 1D model gives the slightly overestimate natural frequency and structural rigidity compared to the reality. Unlike 2D and 3D model, the structure is accounted to have the uniform sectional rigidity along transversal direction in 1D model. This is why 1D model seems to have higher structural rigidity compared to 2D and 3D model, which subsequently yields the higher natural frequency than 2D and 3D model. This research proves that the designers’ discretion is advised if 1D model is used for the sake of design practicality.

Abstract

Creep significantly affects the long-term deflection of the prestressed concrete bridge structure. Some models often used in predicting creep do not consider the water-cement ratio. The water-cement ratio is a factor in the magnitude of creep. If the water-cement ratio is excessive, the creep will also be significant. B3 Model uses the water-cement ratio in predicting creep in prestressed concrete bridge structures and has provided good accuracy with measured deflection data. This study compares B3 Model with Model CEB 2010 to predict the effect of creep on the long-term deflection. The author modeled the bridge structure using Midas Civil 2022 v1.2 software by utilizing the construction stages analysis facility to idealize the balanced cantilever and the effect of creep on the long-term deflection. Envelope displacement of bridge B3 Model is more significant than CEB 2010. The prediction deflection of the B3 Model in 100 years of service life of the bridge is -16.34 cm, while CEB 2010 is -11.90 cm. Creep affects total deflection by 84% to 88%. Creep affects the deflection significant because, in the construction process, each box girder segment is stressed and loaded at the age of 3 days. At the age of 3 days, the elastic modulus of the concrete is still not entirely, and the cement paste on the concrete is still in the hydration process. The results showed a significant difference between B3 Model and CEB 2010. B3 Model predicts that the long-term deflection of the bridge until the end of the bridge's service life is 44% to 49% greater than the CEB 2010 model. Prediction of total deflection until the end of 100 years of bridge service life does not exceed the limit determined by SNI and CEB codes.

Abstract

This research aims to assess the effect of temperature gradient developed within the concrete slab of rigid pavement, and to investigate its impact when incorporated with the traffic load, and the heat transfer pattern. The rigid pavement model considers an isotropic, uniform, and linear-elastic schemes to simulate the material properties. A numerical analysis approach was employed using Abaqus software incorporated with the 3D Solid model. The traffic loads were obtained from the field surveys, while the temperature of the slabs was measured directly on the site. The dimension of the rigid panel is 2.75 m in width, 5 m long, slab thickness of 25 cm, and concrete specification of 41.33 MPa. The results showed that the temperature gradient produced a significant impact on stress development within the concrete slab of rigid pavement. It was observed that the temperature gradient during the daytime generated higher stress than at night, with a value reaching the MOR (Modulus of Rupture). The exposure of the rigid pavement to 500C tends to produce a principle slab stress of 2.395 MPa, while 1.31 MPa was developed due to the traffic load. When the two factors were combined, the concrete slab acquired a maximum principle stress of 3.322 MPa, which is close to the MOR of 83.34% fa. These results showed that the pavement is capable of withstanding stress from temperature gradient and traffic load as indicated by the ratio of less than one (1). However, this ratio is high for fatigue failure mitigation purposes, and this reduces the quality of life of the rigid pavement.
