Question:
Various stresses in jointed plain concrete pavement with slab size of 3.5 m x 4.5 m are denoted as follows :
Wheel load stress at interior = \(S_{wl}^i\)
Wheel load stress at edge = \(S_{wl}^e\)
Wheel load stress at corner = \(S_{wl}^c\)
Warping stress at interior = \(S^i_t\)
Warping stress at edge = \(S_t^e\)
Warping stress at corner = \(S_t^c\)
Frictional stress between slab and supporting layer = \(S_f\)
The critical stress combination in the concrete slab during a summer midnight is
