Abstract
A design guide was developed to predict cracking tendency in bonded concrete overlay at early age. The design guide, implemented as an EXCEL spreadsheet, is a practical tool for pavement engineers. The design guide calculates surface stresses and interfacial debonding stress due to shrinkage and thermal changes at early age. An engineer can use the design guide to study the interaction of material properties, environmental conditions, structural restraints, and overlay geometry.
