Abstract:

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.
