Forensic Investigation of AC and PCC Pavements with Extended Service Life

Several pavement sections constructed in Ohio have far exceeded their expected service lives. Research is needed to determine the techniques and materials used to construct these pavement sections and to ascertain why they have performed to this level.  The objective of the Forensic Investigation of Pavements with Extended Service Life study will be to determine best practices that improve the longevity of pavement. Both long-lived asphalt and concrete pavements will be included in this study.
