Large-Scale Test Setup of Concrete Pavement Slabs Jointed by Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Dowel Bars as Load Transfer Devices
Conventional steel bars are mostly used as the main load transfer mechanism between jointed slabs in rigid pavements; however, they are generally prone to corrosion which reduces the load transfer efficiency at the joints. This study evaluates the performance of steel bars wrapped with Carbon Fiber...
