RISEffect of Type of Compaction on Mechanical Properties in Warm-Mix Asphalts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper compares the effect of type of compaction (impact and gyratory compaction) on mechanical properties (such as water sensitivity and stiffness modulus) in warm-mix asphalts. Moreover, the manufacture and laying ...
Laboratory Study on the Stormwater Retention and Runoff Attenuation Capacity of Four Permeable Pavements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Hydrological behavior of pervious pavements during rainfall events is a complex process that is affected by many factors such as surface type, nature of aggregates, layer thickness, rainfall height, rainfall intensity, and ...

Abstract: Hydrological behavior of pervious pavements during rainfall events is a complex process that is affected by many factors such as surface type, nature of aggregates, layer thickness, rainfall height, rainfall intensity, and ...
Classification and Comparison of Snow Fences for the Protection of Transport Infrastructures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Blowing snow or sand transport generates serious problems, such as transport infrastructures buried under snow or sand, in many parts of the world. Some of the most important problems that snow and sand storms can cause ...
Characterization of Infiltration Capacity of Permeable Pavements with Porous Asphalt Surface Using Cantabrian Fixed Infiltrometer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Porous asphalt is used in Permeable Pavement Systems, but it is sensitive to surface clogging, which leads to a loss in its infiltration capacity. Test methods based on the use of permeable pavement models, which are ...
Long-Term Simulation of a System for Catchment, Pretreatment, and Treatment of Polluted Runoff Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of pollutants in runoff on the environment have forced the development of several water treatment systems with the aim of reducing this kind of pollution before its final discharge. Nevertheless, many of these ...
Infiltration Capacity Assessment of Urban Pavements Using the LCS Permeameter and the CP Infiltrometer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the Cantabrian portable infiltrometer (CP infiltrometer), a specially designed device based on rainfall simulation for the assessment of the infiltration capacity of all types of urban pavements. Several ...
Monitoring and Evaluation of the Thermal Behavior of Permeable Pavements for Energy Recovery Purposes in an Experimental Parking Lot: Preliminary Results
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Permeable pavements offer a solution for rainwater runoff treatment in urban areas, combining water management with water reuse purposes when the sealed subbase become rainwater reservoirs. Furthermore, the thermal behavior ...
Relationship between Urban Runoff Pollutant and Catchment Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Much research has been done to determine levels of contamination in runoff from urban and rural catchment areas. Some authors compare their results with other authors or look for relationships between the variations of ...
