Performance and Thermal Evaluation of Incorporating Waste Ceramic Aggregates in Wearing Layer of Asphalt Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Industry waste materials are commonly used in road engineering. In this study, crushed ceramic waste aggregates (CWAs) were utilized and added into asphalt mixtures to investigate their potential usage. A finite-element ...
Monitoring and Modeling the Variations of Structural Behavior of a Flexible Pavement Structure during Freezing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study carried out to monitor the structural behavior of a flexible pavement in cold regions, which is significantly affected by environmental factors and traffic loads. In this study, ...
Assessment of Flexible Pavement Response during Partial Thawing Conditions Using Accelerated Pavement Testing
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Damage to flexible pavements is known to be greatly influenced by climatic factors. Among them, partial thawing conditions encountered during winter warming periods, as well as in the early period of spring thaw, are ...
Analytical Calculations for Asphalt Pavement Considering Interlayer Performance
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Asphalt pavement structures are composed of layered materials and are assumed to be completely continuous elastic layered systems in structural design. However, a number of studies have indicated that the interface is not ...
Application of Corn Stalk Fibers in SMA Mixtures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Serious environmental pollution will occur if corn stalk materials are discarded randomly or burned in open air. This study presents a possible method for using corn stalk materials to make fibers used in stone matrix ...
Investigation of the Shear Behavior between Layers of Foamed Asphalt Cold-Recycled Pavement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Foamed asphalt cold-recycled mixtures have been increasingly used in China. However, the interlayer shear performance between the foamed asphalt cold-recycled layer and its top and bottom layers is still not clear. In this ...
Pavement Mechanics Calculation Based on the Analytical Solution of Layered Viscoelastic System under Horizontal and Vertical Loads
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Most countries adopt the mechanical theory of a layered elastic system under vertical load as the design method for asphalt pavement. This calculation theory does not consider the influence of the horizontal force of the ...
Configuration Research of Recessed Pavement Markings Based on Digital Imagery
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recessed pavement markings are consistently utilized to withstand the impact of snowplowing and sanding operations, particularly in regions with cold climates. However, the optimal configuration of recessed pavement markings ...
Laboratory and Field Performance Evaluation of Cold-Mix Asphalt Mixture with Solvent-Based Liquid Asphalt in Winter Pavement Maintenance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The cold-mix asphalt mixture with solvent-based liquid asphalt shows promising application prospects in winter pavement maintenance. This paper evaluates the performance of cold-mix asphalt mixtures in both laboratory and ...
