Relationships between Asphalt-Layer Moduli under Vehicular Loading and FWD Loading
(ASCE, 1/1/2021)The modulus of the asphalt layer in a pavement structure subjected to vehicular loading is different from that subjected to falling weight deflectometer (FWD) loading. A comprehensive approach is developed in this study ... -
Temperature and Duration Impact on the Strength Development of Geopolymerized Granulated Blast Furnace Slag for Usage as a Construction Material
(ASCE, 2/1/2021)Through the process of extracting iron from iron ore, a by-product is generated known as granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS). Traditional stabilization methods such as cement stabilization are not entirely sustainable ... -
Creep and Long-Term Properties of Alkali-Activated Swedish-Slag Concrete
(ASCE, 2/1/2021)The construction of the future is moving in the direction of environmentally friendly materials and the use of various types of industrial byproducts and wastes. The use of blast furnace slag (BFS) for the production of ... -
Impact of Wastewater Treatment Sludge on Cracking Resistance of Hot Mix Asphalt Mixes at Lower Mixing Temperature
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Wastewater treatment sludge (WTS) is a by-product of wastewater treatment. Moisture holding capacity, high organic, complex inorganics, and zeolite-like chemical contents make WTS a valuable pavement additive. This study ... -
Sulfate Resistance and Drying Shrinkage of Self-Compacting Concrete Incorporating Copper Slag
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )This research involved a detailed laboratory study of sulfate resistance and drying shrinkage of self-compacting concrete (SCC) mixes made with copper slag. After an initial curing of 28 days, SCC samples were subjected ... -
Interface Shear Stress Properties of Geogrids with Mixtures of Fly Ash and Granulated Rubber
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )In recent times, alternative ways to dispose various wastes generated, namely, fly ash, scrap tires, steel or iron slag, and foundry sand, are on the rise. Owing to low unit weight and good hydraulic conductivity properties ... -
Material Characterization of Traditional Assam-Type Wooden Houses in Northeastern India
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Traditional Assam-type wooden houses are a popular housing system in the northeastern Himalayan region of India. Such houses have performed exceptionally well in previous earthquakes. An experimental study on the frames ... -
Effect of Thermochromic Materials on the Properties of SBS-Modified Asphalt Mixture
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymers (SBS)–modified asphalt mixture is widely used in high grade roads because of its excellent comprehensive performance. However, the black characteristics and high temperature susceptibility ... -
Experimental Investigation on Concrete Using Corn Stalk and Magnesium Phosphate Cement under Compaction Forming Technology
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Agricultural by-products are increasingly used in the production of bio-based concrete. Compaction forming technology was used in this study to develop a sustainable biocomposite made from corn stalk (CS) and magnesium ... -
Performance Characterization of Recycled-Asphalt Pavement with Stabilized Rubber–Modified Asphalt Using Balanced Mix Design Method
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )The rejuvenator is typically utilized to partially recover the mechanical properties of reclaimed-asphalt pavement (RAP). Although the rejuvenator works effectively in softening the highly aged recycled asphalt and improving ... -
Fatigue and Healing Characteristics of RAP Mixtures
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )The healing properties of bituminous mixes prepared using reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) material are different from those of virgin mixes because the chemical characteristics of RAP binder blends are different (depending ... -
Interface Transformation Behavior of Bonding/Lubrication of Aggregate-Asphalt System
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Asphalt binder is very sensitive to temperature and exhibits bonding or lubrication effects at different temperatures. The bonding/lubrication properties of asphalt affect the mixing, compaction, and service performance ... -
Performance Characterization of Warm-Mix Asphalt Containing High Reclaimed-Asphalt Pavement with Bio-Oil Rejuvenator
(ASCE, 12/1/2020 )Warm-mix asphalt (WMA) technology and recycling of asphalt pavement, i.e., reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), have been becoming more popular in recent years due to their economic and environmental benefits. Similarly, ...
