2. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

   An expansion joint is designed to allow deflection in the axial (compressive), lateral (shear), or angular (bending) deflections. Expansion joints can be non-metallic or metallic (often called bellows type). Non-metallic can be a single ply of rubberized material or a composite made of multiple layers of heat and erosion resistant flexible ...

3. Concrete pavement restoration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_Pavement_Restoration

   Dowel bar retrofit (DBR) is a process that re-establishes load transfer capability on joints and cracks by installing epoxy-coated, round steel dowels into existing concrete pavement across transverse joints and/or cracks. Slots are cut using diamond-tipped saw blades; the existing concrete is removed and the dowels are placed in the slots ...

4. Dowel bar retrofit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dowel_bar_retrofit

   Non-shrink concrete backfill material that is tested as rapid set concrete patching materials is recommended for use on DBR projects. First, make two saw cuts in the pavement to outline the longitudinal sides of each dowel bar slot. Saw to a depth and length that allows the center of the dowel to be placed at mid-depth in the pavement slab.

5. Road surface - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_surface

   A concrete pavement composed of multiple slabs of uniform size will produce a periodic sound and vibration in each vehicle as its tires pass over each expansion joint. These monotonous repeated sounds and vibrations can cause a fatiguing or hypnotic effect upon the driver over the course of a long journey.

6. Diamond grinding of pavement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_grinding_of_pavement

   Diamond grinding is a pavement preservation technique that corrects a variety of surface imperfections on both concrete and asphalt concrete pavements. Most often utilized on concrete pavement, diamond grinding is typically performed in conjunction with other concrete pavement preservation (CPP) techniques such as road slab stabilization, full- and partial-depth repair, dowel bar retrofit ...

7. High-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-performance_fiber...

   The ECC patch was used as a replacement to the previously existent expansion joint that linked two deck slabs. Expansion joints, commonly used in bridges to allow for the seasonal expansion and contraction of the concrete decks, are an example of a ubiquitous construction practice that could eventually be eliminated through the use of bendable ...
