A section of jointed concrete pavement on U.S. 75, which was built from 1982 to 1985, in the Paris District of the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) experienced severe pumping and settlement, even though two types of treatment (full depth repair and polyurethane foam injection) were performed. An extensive field investigation was conducted using ground penetrating radar, falling weight deflectometer, dynamic cone penetrometer, and coring to identify the causes of the continued pumping and settlement problems, and develop an optimal repair strategy. The pavement evaluation included tie bar condition, load transfer efficiency (LTE) at transverse and longitudinal construction joints, and base support conditions. Some of the tie bars failed in shear due to corrosion, which resulted in substantially low LTEs ( <40% ) at longitudinal construction joints. Pumping and settlement problems were more pronounced where the tie bars failed; the resulting large deflections exacerbated the pumping and settlement...
