Abstrakt:

Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavements have been the subject of studies focused on their increasing deterioration over time due to the influence of vehicular loading and ambient factors in humidity and temperature conditions ranging from medium to low (40% relative humidity and 25 °C temperature). Therefore, it is necessary to understand how they behave under various relative humidity and temperature conditions since these parameters vary in each geographic region. In this context, this research focused on analyzing the effect of drying shrinkage on RCC pavements under the influence of vehicular loading using a computational model calibrated with data obtained under typical ambient conditions. For this purpose, laboratory experiments were performed, numerical modeling was used, and the results for RCC pavements were validated using statistical analysis. The results revealed validated models providing moisture content and drying shrinkage curves. These results also underline the importance of considering ambient effects when calculating pavement stresses as a response variable in structural designs. In particular, these effects are highlighted as they can generate changes in pavement stresses of up to 10%, emphasizing the relevance of the models proposed in this study as they consider this phenomenon when predicting the performance and durability of RCC pavements.
