Inspectors must reject any chair design that allows movement of the dowel bar during placement of the patching material The dowel must have the 1 2 inch 13 mm thick preformed filler board centered on the dowel to maintain the crack across the slot as shown in BP 2 6 This filler board must fit tight around the dowel and extend to the bottom and to the edges of the slot The filler
Dowel bars are used in new construction as well as retrofitted into existing pavements for restoration of load transfer Areas of concern with using dowel bars include high costs due to the labor intensive procedure of retrofitting and corrosion

Dowel bar retrofitting is a method used to restore or provide better load transfer across transverse joints or cracks using dowel bars Usually dowel bar retrofits are necessitated by excessive faulting due to a loss of aggregate interlock over time It is interesting to note that much of the rigid pavement built in the U S during the 1950s and later included dowel bars for load

The current design standard for load transfer in new jointed PCC pavements and the rehabilitation of old PCC pavement is to place steel dowel bars at mid depth of the pavement across the joint or crack 1 The main issues with the use of retrofit and or new dowels are the high expense associated with the retrofitting operation and the corrosion that has been

These pavements have been rehabilitated with dowel bar retrofit to extend the performance life beyond the original design life of 20 years The first dowel bar retrofit application in Washington was constructed as a test section in 1992 Since then WSDOT has dowel bar retrofitted more than 350 lane kilometers Dowel bar retrofit performance and application are described and
