Measuring in Situ Mechanical Properties of Pavement Subgrade Soils
This synthesis report will be of interest to pavement and geotechnical design and research engineers, geologists and engineering geologists, and related laboratory personnel. It describes the current practice for measuring in situ mechanical properties of pavement subgrade soils. The tests conducted to measure the mechanical properties of soil strength and stiffness are the primary topics, and these are discussed in the context of design procedures, factors affecting mechanical properties, and the variability of measurements. Information for the synthesis was collected by surveying U.S., Canadian, and selected European transportation agencies and by conducting a literature search. This TRB r...

A Performance-related Specification for Hot-mixed Asphalt
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 704: A Performance-Related Specification for Hot-Mixed Asphalt provides a proposed performance-related specification (PRS) for hot-mix asphalt (HMA) in the form of the Microsoft Windows-based Quality-Related Specification Software (QRSS). The QRSS is a stand-alone program for Microsoft Windows (versions XP and 7) that employs a database of pre-solved solutions of the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide. The program is capable of (1) calculating the predicted rutting, fatigue cracking, and low-temperature (thermal) cracking of an HMA pavement from the mix volumetric and binder and aggregate properties of the as-designed HMA (typically the job mix formula) and (2) comparing them with predictions calculated from the contractor's lot or sub-lot quality assurance data for the same properties.
Pavement Design and Accelerated Testing 2004
"TRB℗s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board 1896 examines a mechanistic-empirical model to predict transverse joint faulting, a multilayer boundary-element method for evaluating top-down cracking in hot-mix asphalt pavements, and one-way and two-way directional heavy-vehicle simulator loading in this four-part volume on education tools, rigid pavements, flexible pavements, and accelerated pavement testing. The K. B. Woods Award-winning paper on design and construction of transportation facilities, ©Computer-Based Multimedia Pavement Training Tool for Self-Directed Learning,♯ by Stephen Muench and Joe Mahoney of the University of Washington, also appears in this TRR: Journal volume."--TRB website.
Field Verification of Proposed Changes to the AASHTO R 30 Procedures for Laboratory Conditioning of Asphalt Mixtures
Laboratory conditioning of asphalt mixtures during the mix design process to simulate their short-term aging influences the selection of the optimum asphalt content. In addition, long-term conditioning affects the mixture and binder stiffness, deformation, and strength evaluated with fundamental characterization tests to assess mixture performance. The current standard conditioning procedure, AASHTO R 30, Standard Practice for Mixture Conditioning of Hot-Mix Asphalt, was developed over two decades ago. In reviewing whether to update the standard, TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Research Report 919: Field Verification of Proposed Changes to the AASHTO R 30 Procedur...
