dc.description.abstract Ultra-Thin Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (UTCRCP) is an innovative pavement type that typically consists of a 50 mm high strength steel fibre reinforced concrete layer overlaying existing or new pavement structures. The reduced thickness and high modulus of elasticity of the concrete layer makes it necessary to compare the response of UTCRCP to both conventional asphalt and concrete pavements. In this paper, the finite element method is used to investigate the effect of load configuration, concrete layer thickness and layer interaction on the response of road pavements.
