... 26 C H A P T E R 5 Findings The study developed performance models for predicting shrinkage cracking and change of modulus of CSL due to growth, fatigue, freeze–thaw cycles, and wet–dry cycles. Incorporating these models into the MEPDG would allow estimating CSL performance over time on a monthly basis for the prevailing traffic, climate, and materials.
