Traffic Impact Simulation for Road Construction Project

With the increasing traffic contradiction between supply and demand, urban traffic problems have become quite complex. Reasons for traffic congestion have become much more diverse. During the construction of urban road project, the surrounding road network will encounter a huge impact, traffic problems therefore emerged. Simulation is an important means for transport impact assessment, which ha...

Expert System for Industrial Waste Recycling In Road Construction

Utilization of industrial waste in construction material – A review

In the present age the waste generated from industriesis the huge concern for the environment, health, and cause for land filling. Recycling of such wastes and using them in construction materials appears to be viable solution not only to the pollution problem but also an economical option in construction. In view of utilization of industrial waste in construction material, the present paper re...

Contruction waste generation across construction project life-cycle

The construction and demolition waste (CDW), which is produced by the construction process, presents 33% of the total waste stream in European Union in year 2010 (Eurostat 2010). A construction and demolition waste is generated during whole life cycle of construction design phase, realization phase, occupation phase and demolition phase. On the other hand, the sustainable design of construction...

Reuse of Boron Waste as an Additive in Road Base Material

The amount of boron waste increases year by year. There is an urgent demand to manage it in order to reduce the environmental impact. In this paper, boron waste was reused as an additive in road base material. Lime and cement were employed to stabilize the waste mixture. Mechanical performances of stabilized mixture were evaluated by experimental methods. A compaction test, an unconfined compre...
