This study investigates the reinforcement correction factor of concrete core in more detail to prepare appropriate outlines for interpretation of results. This investigation aims to minimize uncertainties involved to carry out the more realistic condition assessment of suspect buildings before taking up retrofitting/strengthening measures. For this purpose, an extensive experimental program inc...

| A natural way to test the structural integrity of a pavement is to send signals with different frequencies through the pavement and compare the results with the signals passing through an ideal pavement. For this comparison, we must determine how, for the corresponding mixture, the elasticity E depends on the frequency f in the range from 0.1 to 10 5 Hz. It is very expensive to perform measur...

This report is concerned with the determination of relationship between asphaltic concrete surface course specifications and the level of performance of pavements constructed under these specifications. The relationship was investigated through comparative evaluation of deficient (in specification) and nondeficient sections using a combination of pavement condition rating and ride rating as the...
