Characterization of Cementitiously Stabilized Subgrades for Mechanistic-empirical Pavement Design
Pavements are vulnerable to subgrade layer performance because it acts as a foundation. Due to significant increase in truck traffic, pavement engineers are challenged to build more strong and long-lasting pavements. To increase the load-bearing capacity of pavements, subgrade layer is often stabilized with cementitious additives. Thus, an overall characterization of cementitiously stabilized s...
متن کاملA Methodology for Sustainable Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design
Roads cause significant impacts on the environment, such as contributing to emissions responsible for climate change. For this reason, pavement design methodology should integrate environmental as well as economical impacts. The objective of this study was to incorporate environmental impacts as part of the Mechanistic-Empirical (ME) pavement design procedure using Environmental Product Declara...
متن کاملBituminous pavement recycling
The bituminous pavement rehabilitation alternatives are mainly overlaying, recycling and reconstruction. In the recycling process the material from deteriorated pavement, known as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), is partially or fully reused in fresh construction. Some of the advantages associated with pavement recycling are (i) less user delay (ii) conservation of energy (iii) preservation of...
متن کاملCalibration of Pavement ME Design and Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide Performance Prediction Models for Iowa Pavement Systems
The AASHTO Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) pavement performance models and the associated AASHTOWare® Pavement ME Design software are nationally calibrated using design inputs and distress data largely from the national Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP). Further calibration and validation studies are necessary for local highway agencies’ implementation by taking into acc...
متن کاملUse of Pavement Management Information System for Verification of Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide Performance Predictions
The performance models used in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) are nationally calibrated with design inputs and performance data obtained primarily from the national Long-Term Pavement Performance database. It is necessary to verify and calibrate MEPDG performance models for local highway agencies' implementation by taking into account local materials, traffic informatio...
