The performance of a section of concrete pavement built with 30
percent Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is compared
to a control section of concrete pavement built with 25 percent
GGBFS to determine if the higher slag content pavement is more
resistant to wear from studded tires. This report details the
construction of the pavement, construction quality control
tests, and initial base line wear, friction, and smoothness
results. August 12, 2009 Keith W. Anderson, Jeff S. Uhlmeyer,
