As part of the pavement replacement project on the West end of the Lincoln Tunnel in New Jersey, The Port Authority of NY & NJ specified precast pavement slabs at the entrance to the two Northern tubes. The contractor proposed the Super-Slab® System to meet this precast requirement. A total of (54) slabs, 8,285, sf, was replaced in three locations during (5) weekend closures, proving Super-Slab® to be viable and extremely effective.

Precast concrete Super-Slabs® were placed directly upon a precisely graded (within 1/8th inch) dense graded subbase material. Standard 1.5” diameter dowels provide load transfer on all sides of each slab. Slabs were typically set at the rate of (6) to (8) slabs per hour once the grading was completed. This project was completed using single plane slabs.
