Development of a Rutting Model for Bituminous Mixes Using Experimental Data
Abstract: In recent years, the amount and severity of rutting on bituminous pavements in India has been increasing due to the ever increasing traffic volumes, overloading and the high summer temperatures. Extensive research work has been directed throughout the years for creating models to predict the advancement of rutting in bituminous mixes and pavements, yet with restricted achievement. The laboratory rutting tests were conducted on bituminous mixes prepared with various aggregate …

Research on Accessibility of Public Transport Based on Secondary Development of GISDK – An application of Shanghai
Abstract: Using the technology based on AMAP Web API, the primary traffic data such as the locations of physical bus stations and route directions were captured, and the bus GIS database was established in TransCAD which was used to analyze the accessibility of urban public transport networks. The secondary development function of GISDK was used to create a public transport accessibility evaluation system. Taking the public transport network of four districts …

Comparative Assessment of Tensile and Shear Behavior of Cold, Warm and Hot Mix Asphalt Concrete
Abstract: The environment awareness of toxic gases emissions during the production, transportation, and construction of hot mix asphalt concrete (HMAC) have led to the development of Warm, half warm, and cold mix asphalt concrete. Such development of alternative mixtures is considered as sustainable materials in asphalt concrete paving process. The temperature reduction in the mixing of binder during production, handling, and compaction of the mix results in saving energy, reduction of …

EFFECT OF FLY- ASH AND CEMENT ON EXPANSIVE SOIL FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT DESIGN
Abstract: Out of the many types of soils that prevail on the Earth’s crust Expansive soils are observed to be highly problematic by nature. Particularly under conditions of loading, these soils are highly prone to fail due to shear, crushing or excessive settlement. These factors end up expansive soils as unsuitable soils for any construction. If the strength of the soil is poor, then soil stabilization is duly needed. Stabilization is …

Field Assessment of Runway Pavement Surface Texture for Baghdad International Airport
Abstract: One of the major serviceability issues which reflects the suitability of the airport runway for serving international flights is the surface texture of concrete pavement. The concrete surface of the runway 33R-15L of Baghdad international airport is badly covered with large spots of aeroplanes tyre rubber. The international flight companies had claimed that the rough surface of the runway concrete pavement caused damage and deterioration to their aeroplane’s tyres. The …
