Performance History of Concrete Overlays in the United States

Concrete overlays are cost-effective, long-lasting solutions for pavement preservation, resurfacing, and rehabilitation and thus should be an integral part of every agency’s overall asset management program. The purpose of this brief is to demonstrate the applicability of concrete overlays as an asset management solution on a wide array of existing pavement types and roadway classifications. It does this by providing a brief history of the construction of concrete overlays in the United States and then summarizing the details of 12 concrete overlay projects across the country. It concludes with a short list of additional resources.
