Pavements are omnipresent in our society. From roads and airports to parking lots and driveways, every civil engineering project requires applications of this complex subject. Pavement Engineering covers the entire range of pavement construction, from soil preparation to structural design and life-cycle costing and analysis. It links the concepts of mix and structural design, while also placing emphasis on pavement evaluation and rehabilitation techniques. State-of-the-art content introduces the latest concepts and techniques, including ground-penetrating radar and seismic testing. The text facilitates a general course for upper-level undergraduates, covering the selection of materials, mix and structural design, and construction. It also provides laboratory and field tests accompanied by a discussion of new and advanced concepts. This unique text prepares the next-generation of engineers with the core principles and application knowledge needed to maneuver in the ever-expanding pavement engineering industry.
Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements provides engineers and researchers with a detailed guide to the structural behavioral dynamics of asphalt pavement including: pavement temperature distribution, mechanistic response of pavement structure under the application of heavy vehicles, distress mechanism of pavement, and pavement deterioration performance and dynamic equations. An authoritative guide for understanding the key mechanisms for creating longer lasting pavements, Structural Behavior of Asphalt Pavements describes the intrinsic consistency between macroscopic performance and microscopic response, structure and material, as well as global and local performances, and demonstrates the process of pavement analyses and designs, approaching science from empirical analyses. Analyzes the external and internal factors influencing pavement temperature field, and provide a review of existing pavement temperature prediction models Introduces a “Bridge Principle through which pavement performance and fatigue properties are consolidated Defines the intrinsic consistency between macroscopic performance and microscopic response, structure and material, as well as global and local performance Summaries the mechanistic response of pavement structure under the application of heavy vehicle, distress mechanism of pavement, pavement deterioration performance and dynamic equations, and life cycle analysis of pavement
Selected papers from the First International Symposium on Pavement and Geotechnical Engineering for Transportation Infrastructure held in Nanchang, China, June 5-7, 2011. Sponsored by the Nanchang Hangkong University and the International Association of Chinese Infrastructure Professionals (IACIP) in cooperation with the Geo-Institute of ASCE. This Geotechnical Practice Publication contains 20 papers that represent the latest developments in the application of soil, rock, and paving materials to the study and application of geomechanics and transportation geotechnology. Topics include pavement structure and subgrade preparation such as: the use of chemical additives and geogrid reinforcement; performance assessment of concrete and asphalt mixtures; mathematical models for the simulation of geotechnical problems; and evaluation of soil types in relation to slope failure, consolidation, and embankment behavior. GPP 8 focuses on the application of geomechanics in transportation and will be of interest to both geotechnical engineers and transportation professionals.

PAVEMENT DESIGN AND MATERIALS Practical guide for all aspects of pavement engineering, updated with the latest techniques, standards, and software The newly revised and updated Second Edition of Pavement Design and Materials offers a comprehensive treatment of pavement materials, structural analysis, design, evaluation, and economic analysis of asphalt and portland concrete pavements. Written by two highly qualified engineering professors with a wealth of experience in the field, Pavement Design and Materials provides readers with: State-of-the-art techniques for material characterization, including a linear viscoelasticity primer Methods and software for the analysis of flexible and ridgid pavements including the AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design State-of-the-art pavement evaluation techniques including moduli backcalculation methods Pavement economic analysis techniques including the most up-to-date user cost relationships. The book companion website provides: Solved examples in each chapter and the electronic files associated with them An instructor solutions manual for the problems provided at the end of each chapter PowerPoint presentations by chapter to facilitate lecture delivery Pavement Design and Materials is an essential up-to-date textbook on the subject for upper-level undergraduate and graduate level courses on pavement materials and pavement design. It is also a valuable reference for practicing professional engineers involved in the various aspects of roadway pavement material selection and structural design.
Pavement Engineering will cover the entire range of pavement construction, from soil preparation to structural design and life-cycle costing and analysis. It will link the concepts of mix and structural design, while also placing emphasis on pavement evaluation and rehabilitation techniques. State-of-the-art content will introduce the latest concepts and techniques, including ground-penetrating radar and seismic testing. This new edition will be fully updated, and add a new chapter on systems approaches to pavement engineering, with an emphasis on sustainability, as well as all new downloadable models and simulations.
This edition builds on the previous edition, expanding on the fundamental principles of pavement engineering, concentrating on an understanding of the behaviour of pavement materials and of the real meaning of tests carried out on those materials. It includes necessary updates, such as: warm-mix asphalt, as it is increasingly environmentally attractive; cold-mix asphalt; asphalt recycling; bridge deck surfacing; design against potholes; treatment of Stress Absorbing Membrane Interlayers; surface treatments; pavement edge issues; and parking areas. This book also covers soils, granular materials and hydraulically-bound materials (including concrete), and will explain the various relevant engineering properties of those materials and how they are affected by such matters as compaction, water content, binder content and more.
