Evaluation of U.S. and European Concrete Pavement Noise Reduction Methods, July 2006 [PDF]
Highway noise is one of the most pressing of the surface characteristics issues facing the concrete paving industry. This is particularly true in urban areas, where not only is there a higher population density near major thoroughfares, but also a ...

Prediction of Temperature Distribution for Previous Cement Concrete Pavement with Asphalt Overlay
In this study, the temperature distribution of a pavement was predicted by developing an analytic algorithm. The Laplace and inverse Laplace transform techniques and Gaussian quadratic formula were applied to a pavement system of an asphalt overlay ...

ABSTRACT The history of Nazi German extermination camps has, until recently, relied primarily on eyewitness testimony. Very few official documents detailing the facilities survived the war due to the special operation ‘Sonderaktion 1005’, dedicated to hiding their existence and extent.

Defining the Attributes of Good In-Service Portland Cement Concrete Pavements, December 2004 [PDF]
Much of the current research in portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements deals with the analysis of early pavement life failures and seeks to find ways to prevent those from reoccurring.

MANAGEMENT OF CEMENT-CONCRETE ROAD PAVEMENT STRUCTURE
The aim of the research is to study the effect of operating factors on the pavement and optimize the composition of the modified additive for controlling the structure of concrete. The choice of modifiers for concrete mixtures is mainly made empirically and specifically tied to specific engineering tasks.

ABSTRACT What propels a CFO in an emerging economy to champion ESG investments when formal regulations are weak? Moving beyond structural explanations, we provide a behavioural account arguing that a manager's internal ethical compass—moral intelligence (MI)—is a key driver.

100 Years of Concrete Pavements in Iowa Final Report, March 2009 [PDF]
Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements have given excellent service history for Iowa. The first concrete pavement was placed in Le Mars in 1904 and was in service until 1968. The Eddyville Cemetery Road placed in 1909 is still in service today.

ABSTRACT The lag in embedding leaders' decarbonization competences into sunset industry businesses (oil, gas, and petroleum), particularly in Middle Eastern hydrocarbon economies, poses an existential environmental and institutional challenge. In many such contexts, leaders' decarbonization competences remain subordinated to resource utilization and ...

Strategic Plan for Improved Concrete Pavement Surface Characteristics, July 2006 [PDF]
Surface characteristics represent a critical issue facing pavement owners and the concrete paving industry. The traveling public has come to expect smoother, quieter, and better drained pavements, all without compromising safety.

Preparation of Composite Modified Mortar for Bonded Thin Overlay of Cement Concrete Pavement
To address the surface distresses such as surface polishing, aggregate exposure, pitting, and unevenness in cement concrete pavement, a polymer composite modified cement mortar material incorporating both polypropylene fibers and redispersible latex ...
