Title: | CONCRETE SLABS AND BLOCKS FOR CAR PARK PAVING. | Authors: | Fwa, T.F. | Issue Date: | 1987 | Citation: | Fwa, T.F. (1987). CONCRETE SLABS AND BLOCKS FOR CAR PARK PAVING.. Transportation Research Record (1127) : 63-70. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | In addition to its primary function of providing a stable and durable surface for vehicular movement, the parking area pavement must also allow sufficient open spaces for turfing and tree planting. A pavement system consisting of discrete precast perforated-concrete-slab units was found to offer a reasonably satisfactory solution. Later, two new forms of parking area construction, namely, the interlocking-perforated-concrete-block pavement and the cast-in-situ jointed-perforated-concrete-slab pavement. Although both innovations have led to higher construction costs, their superior structural stability and lower maintenance requirements may justify their use on the basis of life-cycle cost considerations. 5 Refs. | Source Title: | Transportation Research Record | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/65336 | ISSN: | 03611981 |
