Effect of Aggregate Shape and Binder on the Rutting Characteristics of Bituminous Mixes
Abstract: Rutting or permanent deformation is the depression in the wheel paths due to accumulation of small amounts of unrecoverable strains under the channelized repeated wheel loads. Shear deformation or lateral plastic flow of the bituminous mix from the wheel tracks also results in rutting. Performance of bituminous mixes is influenced by the constituents of the mix made of aggregates and binder. Among various parameters of these two ingredients, aggregate shape …

Analysis of Box Culvert with Different Aspect Ratio
Abstract: Box culverts are the default buried structure type, where pipe solutions are not suitable. Their larger openings are often required to provide adequate hydraulic capacity. Box culverts are also frequently used for pedestrian or cattle underpasses. The reinforcement used in concrete box culverts can be either conventional bar reinforcement or welded wire fabric. Welded wire fabric has yield strength slightly larger than conventional bar reinforcement. Standard designs for precast concrete …

Simulation of delay variation at uncontrolled intersections for mixed traffic conditions
Abstract: Mixed traffic is composed of different vehicle types with varying geometric and acceleration characteristics. Capacity and delay are the two parameters mainly used to measure the effectiveness of uncontrolled intersections. The variation in the lengths and widths of a vehicle type also has an effect on the capacity and delay. Three intersections and three vehicle types are considered for the study. Also, different vehicle compositions scenarios (C1 to C11) were …

Flexural Behavior of Recycled Asphalt Concrete
Abstract: The operational health of the road network is of the utmost importance for economic and social life. Fatigue life is affected by the growth and accumulation of cracks, under the action of repeated vehicular loading, aging and effect of the environment. The flexural behavior of asphalt concrete depends mainly on the flexibility of the pavement mixture which deteriorate gradually with time. Recycling could be a suitable action to reserve such …
