Condition Survey, Forbes Air Force Base, Kansas.

Abstract

The following summarize the findings of this inspection: (1) The Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavements were in good to excellent condition based on the percentages of slabs containing major defects; (2) D-cracking was very prevalent, with practically all slabs containing some degree of this defect; (3) Some reflection cracking was noted in the 1969 asphaltic concrete (AC) overlay areas; and (4) Thaw weakening of the subgrade has not been a significant factor in pavement performance.
