AbstractThis paper characterized field rutting performance of asphalt pavement based on Hamburg wheel tracking (HWT) rut depth. The depths were collected from 50 sections, and co...

In this research study three dimensional (3D) finite element analysis are performed on a flexible pavement section for different material properties, temperature and loading conditions. The main objective of is to predict the rut depth under conditions temperature, loadings properties. Three model developed using ABAQUS depth. system assumed be an elastic multi-layers with each layer being isot...

Rutting is one of the most common distresses in early damage to asphalt pavements. It can raise risk ride safety issues, accelerate pavement deterioration, and increase maintenance costs. To investigate factors that affect rutting resistance mixtures, internal (such as aggregate gradation, content, layer thickness), external (including temperature traffic loading), human compaction degree) were...

Clays encountered during road construction are mostly weak and result in major pavement failures due to their low California bearing ratio (CBR) high swelling potential. In this study, sustainable eco-friendly waste materials including brick dust (BDW), ground granulated blastfurnance slag (GGBS), recycled plastic (RP) glass (RG) at varying proportions of 11.75% 23.5% were used as partial repla...

Fiber-reinforced asphalt concrete (FRAC) was tested using limestone, PG 64-22 binder, and 20% reclaimed pavement (RAP). After mixing fibers with different lengths dosages, they were extracted recovered to evaluate their dispersion in the FRAC. The uniaxial fatigue test, IDEAL CT flow number test performed on FRAC fiber contents. balanced mix design (BMD) approach then used analyze results order...
