A continuous reinforced concrete pavement using limestone as coarse aggregate is subjected to 107 ESAL. Assume k = 75 pci, Ec = 4 x 106 psi, Sc = 650 psi, Cd = 1.05, J = 2.9, R = 95%, So = 0.3, OPSI = 2.0, DTD = 60°F, and wheel load due to construction traffic = 18,000 lb. Determine the thickness of concrete and the number of No. 5 bars per 12-ft lane required
