Long-Term Modelling of Composite Pavement Performance
… (concrete) pavements with the placement of an asphalt overlay is a common maintenance technique, which results in a structure known as a composite pavement. The most common form of distress in this type of pavement is reflection cracking which can be due to traffic and/or climatic loading. This …

Investigation of Bond Strength and Watertightness of Asphalt Concrete Wearing Surfaces for Timber Bridge Decks
Two different asphalt concrete systems were examined in this research study. The existing system, consistent with current timber bridge construction practice, uses a preformed waterproofing membrane placed on a preservative treated wood deck overlaid with a bituminous concrete wearing surface. The …

Modeling reflective cracking development in hot-mix asphalt overlays and quantification of control techniques
Hot-mix asphalt (HMA) overlay is regarded as an efficient method to rehabilitate moderately deteriorated pavements. Despite the application of an adequately designed overlay, when HMA overlays are built on jointed concrete pavement (JCP) or a cracked surface, reflective cracking can develop shortly …

Laboratory and Field Evaluation of Performance-Engineered Stress Relief Courses in Nevada
Asphalt Concrete (AC) overlay is one of the most common technique used by Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) to maintain and repair aged and deteriorated flexible pavements in Nevada. A major challenge associated with overlays is the reflection of the cracks from the underlying pavement due …
