Abstract

Service life of concrete pavement is influenced by uncertainty factors inherent in pavement conditions. This study describes a method of Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the service life of concrete pavement taken into account these uncertainty factors. Results of the simulation illustrated in this study showed that the probability density function of service life can be expressed by a Beta distribution and the reliability of concrete pavement can be evaluated by this simulation method.
