Accelerated Construction of Roadways: Life Cycle Assessment and Environmental Impacts
… associated with pavement treatment activities. Accelerated construction techniques are known to have several advantages over traditional construction, such as reducing delay and congestion, decreasing safety concerns, and in turn minimizing environmental and socio-economic impacts associated …

Column-Supported Embankments: Full-Scale Tests and Design Recommendations
… There are two principal reasons to use CSEs: 1) accelerated construction compared to more conventional construction methods such as prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs) or staged construction, and 2) protection of adjacent facilities from distress, such as settlement of existing pavements when a …

Development of Improved Connection Details for Voided Slab Bridges
… clearances due to their small section depths, accelerated construction times, and high torsional stiffness. The current longitudinal connection detail, a partial depth grouted shear key, has been known to fail in many of these bridges. The failure leads to reflective cracking in the wearing …

Lateral Spreading Mechanics of Column-Supported Embankments
Column-supported embankments (CSE) enable accelerated construction on soft soils, high performance, and protection of adjacent facilities. The foundation columns transfer embankment and service loading to a competent stratum at depth such that loading on the soft soil can be reduced. This has the …
