In the design of concrete pavement, curling stresses caused by the temperature difference between the top and bottom surfaces of the slab should be calculated at the transverse joint edge in some cases. However, no such equation has been developed in the past. Accordingly, a curling stress equation was developed based on stress analysis using the finite-element method (FEM). In this FEM analysis, a concrete pavement and its transverse joint were expressed by means of a thin plate–Winkler foundation model and a spring joint model, respectively. Multiregression analysis was applied to the results of the FEM numerical calculation and, consequently, a curling stress equation was obtained. After comparing the calculated results of the equation with curling stress equations developed in the past, it was confirmed that the equation was valid and practical.

The design and construction of portland cement concrete pavement involves the selection, specification, and construction of a number of concrete pavement features. Concrete pavement features can significantly affect pavement construction costs. In this study, the relative effect on pavement construction cost of several concrete pavement features was investigated, including concrete pavement thickness, foundation, shoulders, cross-section thickness variation (trapezoidal section), joint spacing, transverse joint load transfer, and transverse joint sealant. Careful consideration and study should be given the cost effects of various features when designing and specifying concrete pavement. The ideal pavement design is one that selects the least costly pavement section that will perform to the expected level over the life of the facility. The least costly pavement section is that with the least life-cycle costs.

Three-dimensional finite element analysis was made on the transverse joint stress state of the concrete pavement slab with void underneath using ANSYS. The transfer effect of dowel bar was discussed with aircraft loaded in the joints. The influence rule of load transfer effect under different dowel bar spacing and dowel bar cross section dimension was compared. Based on the results of finite element analysis, this paper had carried on the experimental study on stress-transferring effect on concrete pavement joints with different location of the dowel bar. The influencing factors of pavement slab transverse joint with void underneath and the resistance of pavement damage on the joint was analyzed. Theoretical analysis showed that in order to reinforce the resistance capacity of local cavity on concrete pavement joint, the largest spacing of transverse dowel bar set shall not be more than 45cm, and the main factors influencing the resistance void ability on the joint are top reaction modulus, coefficient of cavity, the concrete elastic modulus and coefficient of transverse reinforcement.
