Laboratory Trial of Soil‐Sodium Chloride‐Cement Stabilization for Problem Laterite
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)This paper reports on the admixture stabilization of problem laterite using portland cement as the stabilizer and sodium chloride -
Stabilization of Jointing Sand in Block Paving
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)This paper discusses the problem of loss of jointing sand in block paving, how to avoid attendant loss of interlock, and possible damage to the pavement structure from ingress of water. Reasons for the erosion of jointing ... -
Application of Filtering Techniques for Incident Detection
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)Traffic data, essential for the detection of freeway incidents, are often corrupted by impulsive noise and short‐term traffic inhomogeneities that may impair detection performance. Rigorous data filtering can reduce the ... -
Role of Principal‐Plane Rotation in Flexible Pavement Deformation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)Permanent deformation in the layers of a full‐scale flexible pavement test section that was subjected to heavy fighter‐aircraft loading (F‐15) is presented as background information for designing a laboratory study of ... -
Automating Inspection of Highway Pavement Surfaces
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)Reliable, complete, and up‐to‐date information concerning the state of pavement surface is necessary for any cost‐effective highway pavement management program. An automatic imaging system based on state‐of‐the‐art video ... -

Analysis and Design of Doweled Slab‐on‐Grade Pavement Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)This paper provides an in‐depth synthesis of knowledge acquired over the last several decades pertaining to the analysis and design of doweled slab‐on‐grade pavement systems. This task is accomplished on the basis of ... -
Modeling Bridge Deterioration with Markov Chains
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)This paper describes methods for determining and utilizing Markov chains in the evaluation of highway bridge deterioration. Using a data base of 850 bridges in New York State, Markovian transition matrices (MTM) are first ... -
Discussion of “<i>Improving Steep Bends as Hairpin Curves on Mountainous Roads</i>” by B. K. Roy (September, 1990, Vol. 116, No. 5)

Stochastic Model for Pavement Design
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)A stochastic model for pavement design is developed within an analytically derived mechanistic framework for predicting pavement distresses in terms of fundamental material behavior and structural response to traffic loads. ... -
Photogrammetric Solution for Vehicle‐Damage Investigation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)When searching for an operational system for vehicle‐damage investigation, photogrammetry is found to provide a practical solution. A system is designed featuring low capital investment and operational cost as well as ... -
Estimating Earthwork Volumes of Curved Roadways: Mathematical Model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The existing (average‐volume) method for estimating earthwork volumes of curved roadways is approximate and is suitable only for application to level terrains. For linear or fluctuating profiles, such as in hilly and ... -

Limiting Design Parameters for Accelerated Pavement Testing System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)An accelerated testing system (ATS) has been designed with which simulated truck traffic can be applied to a pavement test section. Materials as well as environment and loading conditions can be controlled. A number of ... -
Traffic Signal Using Mixed Controller Operations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)An actuated controller performs well when the traffic is light to medium. When the traffic volume increases and one or more phases of an actuated controller reach the maximum green interval, the controller performance ... -
