| Summary: | The paper presents the results of experimental research that is the continuation of the research
conducted as a part of a Ph.D. dissertation. The experimental research consisted in measuring
the temperature at various depths inside a concrete slab, including its surface, and measuring the air
temperature. The temperature distribution was measured on a concrete slab with dimensions similar
to real road slab dimensions. The aim of the research was to determine the temperature gradient
in the concrete slab in Polish climatic conditions and to verify the available analytical methods.
Keywords: temperature gradient, concrete pavement, thermal stress in concrete pavement.
