The international roughness index IRI for roads is a crucial pavement design criterion in the Mechanistic Empirical Pavement Design Guide MEPDG However studies have shown that the IRI transfer function in the MEPDG is simply a linear combination of road parameters so it cannot provide accurate predictions To solve this issue this research
Australia s first specialist in fracturing concrete pavement surfaces including rubblisation crack & seat and break for removal services SEE IT IN ACTION MHB Rubblising for Removal Australia Rubblising 250mm concrete slab and breaking 150mm lean mix sub base in a single pass in Australia on the M1 Motorway Widening Project T2D using a MHB
Ground penetrating radar GPR signal recognition depends much on manual feature extraction However the complexity of radar detection signals leads to conventional intelligent algorithms lacking sufficient flexibility in concrete pavement detection Focused on these problems we proposed an adaptive one dimensional convolution neural network 1D CNN
Pervious concrete PC also known as porous or permeable concrete is a class of concrete characterized by a relative high volume of connected pores typically in the range of 15% to 30% with pore sizes ranging from 2 to 8 mm [1] and a water permeability of about 2 6 mm/s [2] [3] This is achieved by intentionally incorporating continuous voids through gap
While PA pavement designs may vary they all have a similar porous surface layer Sometimes also include porous base and subgrade to obtain the safety comfort and environmental benefits which are confirmed by many previous studies [2] In terms of safety PA with high interconnected porosity creates an effective path to allow water to infiltrate the

Concrete pavement design has shifted from an empirical pavement design approach to a mechanistic empirical pavement design approach in the United States Recently many state Departments of Transportation DOTs have performed calibration of the performance models embedded within the AASHTOWare Pavement ME software using long term pavement
Concrete pavement performance and asset management; Selection of papers will be based on peer reviews of the suitability of the topic quality of the paper and near term applicability of the subject to practice The conference is expected to be of significant benefit to both practicing and research engineers The presentations will comprise
Undoubtedly rutting in asphalt concrete pavement is considered a major dilemma in terms of pavement performance and safety faced by road users as well as the road authorities Rutting is a bowl shaped depression in the wheel paths that develop gradually with the increasing number of load applications Heavy axle loadings besides the high pavement summer temperature
The cracking patterns registered after the experimental tests are shown in Fig 3 Fig charge of 5 kg Gelamón produced the crushing of concrete in a circular zone of about 250 mm diameter while the diameter of the concrete crushing zone was about 300 mm for the kg The first test produced a fracture of the slab parallel to the short side

The concrete pavement was assumed to be isotropic in this model and the temperature stress equation was calculated using the Westcard Bradbury method in conjunction with the above Equation 7 to obtain the temperature gradient and temperature stress relationship equation for carbon fiber heated concrete pavement at various depths as shown
Rutting is one of the significant distresses in flexible pavements Examining the methods to decrease permanent deformation is of considerable importance to provide long service life and safe highways The main objective of this paper is to undertake a state of the art review to combine the existing work on the permanent deformation of asphalt concrete
