Evaluation of Hot Mix Asphalt Moisture Sensitivity Using the Nottingham Asphalt Test Equipment;TR-483, July 2005 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Moisture sensitivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures, generally called stripping, is a major form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement. It is characterized by the loss of adhesive bond between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (a failure of the ...

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Beyond Efficiency: Sufficiency Strategies for Sustainable Development in the Housing and Building Sectors

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As the housing and building sectors face the urgent challenge of decarbonization, attention is increasingly shifting beyond conventional efficiency strategies toward the principle of sufficiency. This study explores how sufficiency can reshape the housing landscape, although there is no standardized understanding of sufficiency in these ...

Mechanical characterization of porous asphalt mixes modified with fatty acid amides -FAA- [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Porous asphalt mixes (PAM), form a special road surface for asphalt pavement structures, have a special particle size distribution that lets infiltrate to the runoff storm water through of it because of its voids content about 20 %.

Evaluation of Sustainable Urban Design With a Focus on Spatial Organization and Climatic Analysis

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect increases with the growth of cities and population. This situation triggers global climate change, and cities are negatively affected by this situation. In this study, five provinces (Antalya, Gaziantep, Bursa, Kayseri, and Erzurum) located in different climate zones in Turkey were selected as samples ...

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.
