This work presents a composite pavement for highly stressed highways. Based on stress analysis for continuously reinforced concrete pavements there is shown the prediction of crack spacing caused by different temperatures and different concrete strengths. Furthermore, some investigations were made to prove the bond between the thin asphalt overlays and the concrete pavement by the use of a newly developed dynamic shear test. Finally, a concept for the realization of the composite superstructure is presented.
