Question: 4 . 1 1 A concrete slab has a width of 1 2 ft , a thickness of 1 0 in . , and a

4.11 A concrete slab has a width of 12 ft , a thickness of 10 in ., and a modulus of sulgrade reac-
tion of 300 pei. A 24,000-1b axle load with a wheel spacing of 6 ft is applied at the joint, with
one wheel 6 in. from the edge, as shown in Figure P4.11. Determine the maximum bearing
stress between concrete and dowel, assuming 100% load transfer, 0.25-in. joint opening.
and 1-in. dowel bars at 12 in . on centers. The maximum negative moment is assumed to
oceur at a distance of 1,8l from the load, where l is the radius of relative stiffness.
