Highway Research
The level of research activity in the highway sector as a whole has declined precipitously in recent decades, whilst the challenges facing US state highway agencies have escalated. As a result, a Strategic Highway Research Program - SHRP) was initiated to establish collaboration with research bodies tackling similar highway problems in countries worldwide. This collection of reports from around the world presents SHRP`s progress towards providing research-based new products from which the international highway engineering community may benefit. SHRP concentrates on six high-priority research areas: asphaltic materials; pavement performance; cement and concrete; maintenance cost effectiveness; concrete bridge component protection systems and the chemical control of snow and ice.
Implementing the Results of the Second Strategic Highway Research Program
"(SHRP 2): Saving Lives, Reducing Congestion, Improving Quality of Life explores promising results expected from the SHRP 2 research and provides recommendations on how they could be most effectively implemented. The committee that developed the report believes that the widespread implementation of products developed by SHRP 2 is critical in order to address the nation's roadway safety, renewal, reliability, and capacity issues." -- provided by publisher.
Making the Most of the Second Half of SHRP
More than four hundred invited representatives of state highway agencies, industry, and research organizations attended the meeting to examine the Strategic Highway Research Program progress to date, and to suggest adjustments in order to maximize the potential for delivery of immediately useful products when SHRP winds down in 1992. This document summarizes the major conclusions and recommendations emerging from the midcourse assessment meeting. Included in the appendix are the meeting agenda, lists of Advance Papers and Presentation Papers, rosters of Executive Committee, Advisory Committees, and SHRP State Coordinators, and a list of invited participants.
