Abstract
Due to the growing the standard of living, bicycle interest has increased which concerns a negative effect in transportation. Although, bicycle road construction is increasing continuously, distress problem is occurred by empirical design which is conventionally used. To determine the optimum joint spacing, thin porous concrete pavement was constructed and measured with vibrating wire strain gauges. Joint spacing is varied in 1.5m, 3.0m, 6.0m intervals, with slab thickness 7cm. Early age behavior of thin porous concrete pavement is measured. As expected, more restraint occurred at the longer slabs.
