| Description: | Miscellaneous Paper Abstract: This paper documents proposed changes to TM 5-822- 6, "Rigid Pavements for Roads, Streets, Walks, and Open Storage Areas." Changes are recommended in the areas of impact effects, the coverage versus thickness relationship, and effects of high-strength subgrades. Additionally, the criteria for design thickness of vehicular parking areas should be changed to account for a different slab loading condition, including load transfer at joints. These changes establish a rational and consistent basis for CE design of rigid airfield and nonairfield pavements. |
