Impact of Overweight Traffic from Shale Gas Development on Pavement Damage Costs: Case Study in Louisiana
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During recent years, the rapid growth of shale gas exploration nationwide has resulted in a large number of overweight truck trips on roadways in areas with shale gas development. The Louisiana Department of Transportation ...
Equivalent Modulus of Geogrid-Stabilized Granular Base Back-Calculated Using Permanent Deformation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geogrids have been increasingly used for stabilization of base courses and subgrade. In the design of the geogrid-stabilized roads, the benefit of geogrids is usually quantified by a modulus improvement factor (MIF) so ...
Relationship of Adhesion Performance between Asphalt Binder Using Solvent Elution Method and Crushed Pebbles Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Abundant crushed pebbles are used as substitutes for high-quality aggregate to solve the shortage of asphalt pavement aggregate in Tibet. However, since crushed pebbles belong to acid aggregates with a smooth surface, the ...
Back-Calculation of Resilient Modulus and Prediction of Permanent Deformation for Fine-Grained Subgrade under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Exploring Cementitious Additives for Pretreatment of High-Early-Strength Sewage Sludge from the Perspective of the Rapid Generation of Nonevaporable Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Currently, solidification/stabilization (S/S) is the most widely used pretreatment measure for sewage sludge prior to its disposal in landfills in China. Looking for an effective measure to increase the early strength of ...
Theoretical Analysis on Reduction of Load-Induced Excess Pore-Water Pressures in Roads with Geogrids
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Geogrids used in roads can not only stabilize granular bases on weak subgrade but also have the potential to reduce excess pore-water pressures and deformations in road layers under traffic loading. In this paper, the ...
