This paper presents the physical properties of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and its influence on the mechanical performance of a binder course asphalt pavement mix. A series of binder course mixes were designed containing ...
This paper presents the results of an investigation into the fatigue performance of a 20mm Binder Course Asphalt Pavement Mix incorporating Recycled Asphalt Pavement
(RAP). For the study, a series of binder course mixes ...
This paper presents the results of ongoing research on the mechanical performance of a 20mm binder course asphalt pavement mix incorporating recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). A series of binder course mixes were designed ...
Asphalt is a complex, heterogeneous material that is composed of differently sized aggregates, binder and air voids: in other words, it is a particulate reinforced composite. The focus of the present work is to investigate ...
DIRECT-MAT is a three-year European project aiming to facilitate the sharing of national experiences on dismantling and recycling or safe disposal of road and road related materials at the European level. It was initiated ...
The number of commercial vehicles using Irish roads has increased considerably in recent years, leading to higher demands being placed on pavement materials and increased use of polymer modified bitumens. This has also ...
A road develops permanent deformation or fatigue damage because of the stress and strain induced in its structure by surface loading and environmental change. Dynamic tyre forces generated by the vibration of moving heavy ...
Pavement surface profiles induce dynamic ride responses in vehicles which can potentially be used to classify road surface roughness. A novel method is proposed for the characterisation of pavement roughness through an ...
A road develops permanent deformation and fatigue damage because of the strains induced in its
structure by surface loading and environmental change. A mechanistic-empirical approach is
implemented here to simulate the ...
Managing municipal and industrial biosolids by recycling through the land is currently a strategic policy direction in Ireland. Although recycling biosolids is a plausible management alternative it can also be a contentious ...
