Abstract: The spectral‐analysis‐of‐surface‐waves (SASW) method is a nondestructive testing method based upon generation and detection of elastic stress waves. The key steps involved are construction of an experimental dispersion ...

Abstract: An analytic framework dealing with heat movement in a three-layer pavement structure is set up based on the Fourier-Biot heat conduction equation. Exact analytic solution is obtained. The thermal characteristic frequencies ...

Abstract: Shotcrete liners are being utilized more frequently in transportation infrastructure as retaining structures and tunnel covers. Despite their economic advantages to concrete, the initial quality of construction and long-term ...

Abstract: This paper presents the process and results of a quality management program performed during and immediately after the construction of two deep soil mixing (DSM) test sections. The quality management program consisted of ...

Abstract: This forensic study is unique in that it involves a pavement warranty specification. Extensive field and laboratory testing was conducted to determine the cause(s) of longitudinal cracks observed on the surface. Four ...
