The KENSLABS program for rigid pavements can be applied to multiple slabs fullyor partially supported on a liquid solid or layered foundation with moment orshear transfer across joints. Both programs can perform damage analysis bydividing a year into a number of periods each subjected to differentcombinations of singleand multipleaxle loads. Structural and geotechnicalengineers can also benefit from this book by applying KENPAVE to the design ofraft foundations. In addition to vertical loads the foundation slab can besubjected to moments in two directions such as those imposed by retainingwalls and the contours of positive and negative moments can be plotted. Thisinformation will be useful to determine the length and amount of reinforcementsrequired. «
