Abstract Implementation of current understanding, analytical tools, and new test methods must be accelerated if the construction industry is to continue to meet the infrastructure needs of the community at large in an environment of shrinking budgets. A continuing challenge to the concrete paving industry is the ever present need to implement new technologies as they are proven, coupled with the need to educate new employees throughout the industry about best practices. The object of this task order was to help meet this need by conducting technology transfer, delivery, and implementation of best practices for jointed concrete pavements. This report summarizes the activities, products developed, and accomplishments. Activities such as those conducted under this task order are invaluable in ensuring that long lasting and sustainable pavement systems can be reliably specified, constructed, and maintained.
