  • RS-LMC (Rapid Setting Latex Modified Concrete) has been widely used as repair material for bridge deck overlay or rehabilitation, because the overlaid pavement could be opened to the traffic after 3 hours of curing. Although the field performance of RS-LMC generally indicates that it has an excellent bonding to the substrate and shows a long term performance, the crack by vibration of vehicles have been happened on the overlay of bridges in technical reports. In this study, experimental research was carried out to evaluate the vibration properties of RS-LMC overlays by using P.S.T (Pavement Shaking Table). Total 12 specimens were tested and the variables are Latex-cement ratio (L/C) and amplitude of vibration. The result shows that the number of cracks and the total length of cracks are reduced as the increase of Latex-cement ratio (L/C) until 15%. And the crack occurs at a very small strain than the proposed values by Walter, D, G and design codes.
