Forensic Investigation of Pavement Premature Failure due to Soil Sulfate-Induced Heave
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current practice does not recommend stabilizing high sulfate-bearing soils using calcium-based stabilizers due to high potential swell and low retained unconfined compressive strength. In this technical note, a series of ...
Roadway Heaving Caused by High Organic Matter
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A forensic study was conducted to investigate the premature pavement failure of heaving and cracking on the north bound lane of SH6 and to determine (1) the causes of the heaving and cracking; (2) the severity and extent ...
Effects of Inorganic and Polymer Filler on Tertiary Damage Development in Asphalt Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two methods, a three-parameter (work-hardening) model and a pseudostrain energy model, were used to characterize permanent deformation-related damage potential of asphalt mixtures. The three parameters were calculated by ...
Characterization of Microdamage and Healing of Asphalt Concrete Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The pseudo-strain concept based on Schapery’s extended nonlinear elastic-viscoelastic correspondence principle is demonstrated by a considerable database to be able to characterize both microdamage and microdamage healing ...
