Design Assumptions and Limitations
Design Assumptions and Limitations Slab replacement includes partial slab, full slab, and multiple slab replacement. The purpose of slab replacement is to replace shattered or severely broken slabs. Types of slab replacement include: • Full slab replacement, which includes the slab from joint to joint.
• Multiple slab replacement, which includes several connecting, slabs. • Partial slab replacement, which includes slabs where a part of the slab has disintegrated, joints have spalled significantly or the corners have cracked. Per RPDM , Section 10.2 , the minimum recommended dimensions for full depth repair are 12-ft wide (or full lane width) by 6-ft long.
Temporary Traffic Control Plans must address any removed slabs that are to remain open overnight. Coordinate with the District Construction and District
