"Nineteen peer-reviewed papers address the latest issues affecting the resilient modulus test and use of the test results. Resilient modulus indicates the stiffness of a soil under controlled confinement conditions and repeated loading. The test is intended to simulate the stress conditions that occur in the base and subgrade of a pavement system. Papers cover: • Repeatability of the test by testing replicated test specimens under the sa ..."
"Maximize the Quality and Longevity of any Highway Work!Ten peer-reviewed papers give you a timely look at HMA smoothness measurements, specifications, and equipment. Evidence shows that pavements constructed with low roughness measurements perform longer with fewer needed maintenance activities than pavements with a higher level of initial roughness. This collection of papers, written by industry experts, provides and overview of the cu ..."
"Papers from a December 1997 symposium detail innovative and effective strategies for rehabilitation and maintenance of existing highways. Primary topics addressed include pavement evaluation for rehabilitation and management, cold in-place recycling techniques for pavement rehabilitation, effectiveness of different pavement maintenance treatments and operations, performance-based specification for crack sealants, and design and construc ..."
"2.2.2.1 Australia Visual identification is used to specify the quality of the
pavement surface (i.e., uniform texture). ... Finnish researchers have also been
exploring the use of GPR for identifying segregation during construction (see the
preceding ..."
