Abstract: Beam fatigue testing of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) in the laboratory has been used for several decades by many researchers around the world. A total of two standard procedures are currently available: one that controls constant ...

Abstract: Cracking is one of the most common distresses in asphalt pavement. Because asphalt concrete is relatively weak in tension, synthetic fibers have shown to increase its tensile strength and, therefore, reduce the chance of ...

Abstract: Perpetual pavements, if properly designed and rehabilitated, last longer than 50 years without major structural rehabilitation. The fatigue endurance limit (EL) is a key parameter for designing perpetual pavements to ...
