KWIK SLAB The existing pavement should be surveyed to determine dimensions, elevations, type of subgrade, etc. in order that proper detailing and compaction requirements be predetermined before execution of the work. PPCP Method Information concerning the pavement cross-section (including existing thickness and width), desired section length, and information on pavement support structure/base/subgrade layers should be obtained. If horizontal and vertical curves and/or superelevations are present, a detailed survey should be provided. Super-SlabĀ® System For single (patching) slab projects, only the plan view size is required. For continuous, multiple slab projects, the designer must detail the horizontal and vertical geometry on the drawings in the form of profiles, cross-sections, super elevation transition data, and “x”, “y”, “z” data of all abutting edges that need to be met. This is the same information that is required for cast-in-place pavement. Alternatively, for repair projects,
