    Abstract:

    The cross-tensioned concrete pavement is for the tensile strength of pre-stressed tendon to be utilized fully for making concrete pavement in a state of bi-directional compression prior to bearing vehicle loading and environmental effect by tensioning cross-strands, significantly enhancing bearing capacity and durability of concrete pavement. The model test is conducted to get mechanical performance of local anchorage in cross-tensioned concrete pavement based on its complicated distribution of stress, following by discussing influence of shape of U-shaped notch in prefabricated modules on measured strain. The results show that the local anchorage is in a complicated stress state under action of tensioning of cross-strands. The measured tensile strain reaches its maximum value at the top of U-shaped notch in the section where the tensioning cross-strands locate under action of symmetric tensioning. Additionally, the shape of U-shaped notch has apparently influence on measured strain. The trapezoidal prefabricated modules have simple structure and light weight, but poor mechanical performance owing to phenomenon of stress concentration. While prefabricated modules with larger angle of chamfer are good in mechanical performance, but heavier weight. The prefabricated modules with smaller angle of chamfer simultaneously have better mechanical performance and lighter weight. Furthermore, the gap between adjacent prefabricated modules obviously makes the measured strain on increase, and symmetric tensioning is the most unfavorable loading condition for prefabricated modules. Therefore, the gap between adjacent prefabricated modules should be dealt with grouting before tensioning of cross-strands to decrease tensile strain.
