Mix Design Practices for Warm Mix Asphalt
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 691: Mix Design Practices for Warm-Mix Asphalt explores a mix design method tailored to the unique material properties of warm mix asphalt technologies. Warm mix asphalt (WMA) refers to asphalt concrete mixtures that are produced at temperatures approximately 50°F (28°C) or more cooler than typically used in the production of hot mix asphalt (HMA). The goal of WMA is to produce mixtures with similar strength, durability, and performance characteristics as HMA using substantially reduced production temperatures. There are important environmental and health benefits associated with reduced production temperatures including lower greenhouse gas emissions, lower fuel consumption, and reduced exposure of workers to asphalt fumes. Lower production temperatures can also potentially improve pavement performance by reducing binder aging, providing added time for mixture compaction, and allowing improved compaction during cold weather paving. Appendices to NCHRP Report 691 include the following. Appendices A, B, and D are included in the printed and PDF version of the report. Appendices C and E are available only online.
Precision of the Dynamic Modulus and Flow Number Tests Conducted with the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 702: Precision of the Dynamic Modulus and Flow Number Tests Conducted with the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester describes the development of precision statements for the dynamic modulus and flow number tests conducted with the Asphalt Mixture Performance Tester.
Investigation of Short-term Laboratory Aging of Neat and Modified Asphalt Binders
"TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 709: Investigation of Short-Term Laboratory Aging of Neat and Modified Asphalt Binders provides a proposed method of testing for short-term laboratory aging of neat and modified asphalt binders using the modified German rotating flask as an alternative to the rolling thin film oven test. The following appendixes A-E to NCHRP Report 709 are only available in electronic format."--
Electrical Measuring Instruments and Measurements
This book, written for the benefit of engineering students and practicing engineers alike, is the culmination of the author's four decades of experience related to the subject of electrical measurements, comprising nearly 30 years of experimental research and more than 15 years of teaching at several engineering institutions. The unique feature of this book, apart from covering the syllabi of various universities, is the style of presentation of all important aspects and features of electrical measurements, with neatly and clearly drawn figures, diagrams and colour and b/w photos that illustrate details of instruments among other things, making the text easy to follow and comprehend. Enhanci...
An Introduction to Hot Mix Asphalt Roundabouts for Street and Highway Pavement for Professional Engineers
Introductory technical guidance for Professional Engineers and construction managers interested in design and construction of street and highway roundabouts with asphalt concrete.
Volumetric Requirements for Superpave Mix Design
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 567: Volumetric Requirements for Superpave Mix Design examines whether changes to the recommended Superpave mix design criteria for voids in mineral aggregate, voids filled with asphalt, and air voids content might further enhance the performance and durability of hot-mix asphalt.
Transportation and Geotechniques: Materials, Sustainability and Climate
This book deals with the attempts made by the scientists, researchers and practitioners to address different emerging issues in transportation and geotechnical engineering. Papers focus on the following: (i) polymer-based dust suppressant,(ii) cement concrete materials, (iii) pavement preservation techniques, (iv) frost front in a cold-region circular tunnel, (v) metro station in non-cemented soil, (vi) seismic-liquefaction, (vii) mechanical responses of asphalt pavement at bridge approach, (viii) warm mix asphalt, and (ix) behavior of pile foundation. This volume is useful for the researchers and practitioners who work in the area transportation and geotechincal engineering. Papers were selected from the 5th GeoChina International Conference 2018 – Civil Infrastructures Confronting Severe Weathers and Climate Changes: From Failure to Sustainability, held on July 23 to 25, 2018 in HangZhou, China.
