Concrete Repair Best Practices: A Series of Case Studies



Concrete pavement restoration (CPR) techniques have gained greater national significance as DOT agencies attempt to further extend infrastructure service lives prior to required major rehabilitation or reconstruction.  Various publications have documented design procedures and materials for CPR techniques, but less has been written about best practices for their construction, based on information from contractor and DOT agency practitioners.  This report consolidates best practice case studies for six CPR techniques: cross-stitching, dowel bar retrofit, diamond grinding, full depth repair, partial depth repair and slab stabilization.  Technical briefs for each CPR case study have also been written to accompany the main report. They have been separately published.
