Abstract
A theoretical method is developed for determining the distribution of stresses and deflections in prestressed concrete pavements beyond conditions to which the elastic theory is applicable. The method is limited to a load applied at an interior position of a slab supported by a dense liquid foundation and prestressed equally in the longitudinal and transverse directions. By use of this method, the magnitude of load causing top surface cracking and the location of this cracking can be predicted.
