Abstract: Simultaneously assessing liquid limit and plastic limit using a single laboratory test procedure and comparing the results to the standard test methods has not been noted in the published literature. This paper describes ...

Abstract: Excessive natural sand contents can increase the susceptibility of asphalt concrete to permanent deformation-type distresses. For this reason, pavement construction specifications usually include a limit for the proportion ...

Abstract: The present study proposes a method for predicting stresses in pavements under vehicular loadings. The proposed method characterizes each pavement layer by a coefficient of lateral stress, which is similar to the commonly ...

Abstract: Airfield pavement evaluations commonly include nondestructive testing. These evaluations are used for projecting pavement performance and for designing pavement rehabilitation options. To apply reliability concepts to these ...
