Precast Concrete Pavement
The U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has released a report that evaluates the effectiveness of precast concrete pavement (PCP) as a developing technology. PCP has the potential to be an effective and efficient way to conduct roadway maintenance, repairs, and reconstruction. TRB's second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP2) developed research related to PCP within the
R05 project. FHWA has overseen initial research and prototypes to develop a more routine use of PCP technology in some states. SHRP2 is a partnership between TRB, FHWA, and AASHTO.
