Pavement

Part 4C of the Guide to Pavement Technology summarises aspects of Australian practice in materials for use in concrete road pavements including base concrete and lean mix concrete subbase, concrete curing compounds, steel reinforcement including tie bars and dowel bars, joint sealants and fillers. Unbound granular materials, cemented materials and asphalt may also be associated with concrete road pavements. The requirements for these materials are discussed in other parts of the guide.
