Two previous studies on the survival of bare and asphalt-overlaid concrete pavements on the Illinois Interstate highway system were updated to reflect the performance of the pavements through 1991. The Illinois Interstate system consists of about 1750 miles of 10-inch jointed reinforced concrete pavement ORCP) and continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) ranging in thickness from 7 to 10 inches. As of 1991, about 60 percent of these pavements had been overlaid with asphalt concrete (AC), ranging in thickness from 1.5 to 6 inches. Data for the survival analysis were retrieved from the Illinois Pavement Feedback System database. Both in-service life and accumulated 18-kip ESALs at rehabilitation were estimated for bare pavements categorized by type, thickness, and D cracking susceptibility, and for overlaid pavements categorized by overlay thickness, overlaid pavement type, and D cracking susceptibility. The results show the effects of D cracking, traffic level, pavement type, pavement thickness, and overlay thickness on performance of bare and resurfaced concrete pavements.

In previous studies, the performance of bare and resurfaced jointed reinforced concrete pavement (JRCP) and continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) on the Illinois freeway system was assessed by survival analyses. In this study, the 1994 data have been used to update the survival analysis of JRCP and CRCP and to carry out an initial survival analysis on the full depth asphalt sections (HMAC) of the Illinois freeway system. First and second asphalt concrete (AC) overlays were analyzed separately. Data for the survival analysis were retrieved from the Illinois Pavement Feedback System (IPFS) database. The Illinois freeway system consists of over 2,000 centerline miles (3,218 km) of heavily trafficked multiple-lane pavements which were constructed largely between 1957 and 1994. As of 1994, about 32% of these pavements had been overlaid once with AC ranging in thickness from 1.5 to 7.0 in. (3.8 to 17.8 cm). About 26% of these have been overlaid for the second time with AC ranging in thickness from 1.5 to 7 in. (3.8 to 17.8 cm).

More than 60% of Illinois' Interstate concrete pavements have already been overlaid with asphalt, and by some estimates nearly 100% of Illinois' Interstate system (excluding recently constructed and reconstructed sections) are expected to have been overlaid at least once by the year 2000. Evaluation and rehabilitation of asphalt-overlaid concrete (AC/PCC) pavements have therefore become increasingly prominent and pressing concerns. Project IHR-532 is a cooperative research study between the Illinois Department of Transportation and the University of Illinois entitled "Rehabilitation of Asphalt-Overlaid Concrete Pavements". The objective of this study is to develop practical guidelines for evaluation and rehabilitation of AC/PCC pavements. These guidelines have been developed and presented in five reports which encompass AC/PCC pavement deterioration and survival, evaluation, rehabilitation, and selected case studies. This final report presents a summary of these guidelines.
