Abstract: Although the multiple stress creep recovery (MSCR) test has shown its superiority in predicting rutting resistance of asphalt binders, concerns have been raised regarding the testing protocol and procedures. To evaluate ...

Abstract: Dynamic modulus (|E*|) is one of the primary required inputs for the mechanistic-empirical pavement design of asphalt concrete (AC) pavements. Prediction of |E*| using specific models and certain inputs has been proven to ...

Abstract: The resilient modulus of a base course granular material is an important input parameter for pavement design and analysis. In recent decades, numerous studies have been performed to characterize and model the resilient ...

Abstract: As hot mix asphalt (HMA) is the major paving material worldwide, how the quality of this material is assured is a critical issue. The current quality assurance (QA) practices include testing programs that yield inevitable ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a study that evaluated the performance of a new runway at the northernmost US airport in Barrow, Alaska. Due to the appearance of early pavement surface distresses, nondestructive ...
