Abstract

In the paper the results of experiments on concrete pavement with exposed aggregate technology placed in two technological layers were presented. The following properties were measured: compressive strength, flexural strength by two methods: two-point loading and centre-point loading, tensile splitting strength of cubic and cylindrical samples. The study was performed for two type of concrete with a maximum aggregate size Dmax 8 mm (concrete applied to the upper layer of concrete pavement - GWB) and Dmax 22 mm (concrete used for the bottom layer - DWB). After the analysis of the tests, the correlations between compressive strength and tensile strength, measured by flexural strength and tensile splitting strength, were determined for the used two-layers concrete pavement with exposed aggregate depending on applied Dmax.

Keywords:
