First Findings from the Kansas Perpetual Pavements Experiment
(Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, 2008)
To investigate the suitability of the perpetual pavements concept for
Kansas highway pavements, the Kansas Department of Transportation
(KDOT) constructed four thick, flexible pavement structures on a new
alignment on ...
Field Verification of Superpave Dynamic Modulus
(Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2010-05)
In the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide, prediction of flexible pavement response and performance needs an input
of dynamic modulus of hot-mix asphalt at all three levels of hierarchical inputs. This study was ...
Experience with Thin Superpave Mixture Overlay of Small Aggregate Top Size in Kansas
(National Research Council, 2011-01)
Superpave® asphalt mixture with small (4.75-mm) nominal maximum aggregate size (NMAS) is a promising, low-cost pavement preservation treatment for rural roads. This mixture has the potential to provide a smooth riding ...
Seasonal and Spatial Variation of Subgrade Response
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2000)
Temperature, subgrade moisture content, and Falling Weight Defleetometer
(FWD)-deflection data were collected monthly on four asphalt pavement test sections
in Kansas for a year. The subgrade moduli were baekealeulated ...
Comparison of Moduli of Kansas
(Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, 2010)
Currently, hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixture design and pavement structural
design are not fully integrated, although Superpave® asphalt mixture
design is somewhat project specific. The objective of this study was to
compare ...
Design of Crack Attenuating Mix using Waste Plastic
(2022-08-10)
Plastic has many good properties such as inexpensiveness, light weightedness and durability, but it comes with one major catch i.e., its ‘indestructibility’. Plastic waste is now omnipresent and highlights that all plastic ...
Effect of Impurities in Plastic Waste on the Performance of Plastic road
(2023-08-17)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed until 08/01/2025** Plastic waste generation has become a global concern, with a large portion of plastics ending up in landfills. China's recent decision to stop importing waste ...
