Abstract
Rigid pavements may suffer different types of damages such as longitudinal and transverse cracks, cracks in the joint resulting from dynamic traffic load and thermal stress during their lifetime. Understanding rigid pavement response under axial load is important in designing new pavement and implementation of measures to repair and modify existing pavement. In this study, JPCP slab response was studied under the axial loads. For three-dimensional modeling of concrete pavement, ABAQUS CAE Software package V.12 was used which is one of the most powerful software used in three-dimensional modeling.
