Performance-based specifications for pavements
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 1991Pavements represent a very substantial portion of the public's investment in infrastructure. It is essential that this investment be preserved through cost-effective planning, design, and maintenance. One way of achieving this is through the use of long-term performance-based specifications. This paper first describes the current practice for pavement

Routine Maintenance and Pavement Performance
Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1986A study of the relationship between pavement performance and routine maintenance is presented. A concept for deriving this relationship is described. This concept introduces two parameters to represent quantitatively pavement performance and level of pavement routine maintenance.

The thermal effect of asphalt pavements on the surrounding environment in summer is of increasing concern since they absorb a great deal of heat from solar radiation and contribute greatly to the urban heat island effect.

Influence of ATB on Pavement Performance
Performance Modeling and Evaluation of Pavement Systems and Materials, 2009In order to study the influence of asphalt treated base (ATB) on pavement performance, a multi-layer elastic theory program is utilized to calculate the stress and strain in different pavement structures. Based on an instant heat conducting hypothesis, a finite element model is established to calculate the temperature stress and the strain of pavement ...

Numerous laboratory studies have demonstrated that the properties of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) play a crucial role in the performance of the HMA. However, few studies have directly correlated HMA properties to field pavement performance.

Feasibility of Pavement Temperature as a Surrogate for Performance of Rigid Pavements
Proceedings of the International Conference on Concrete PavementsAs time marches forward communities across the State of Minnesota are experiencing on average higher temperatures, and higher frequency of extreme storms with intense flooding from climate change. For example, from 1951 to 2012 the average temperature and annual precipitation in the Twin Cities has increased by 3.25°F and 5.5 inches, respectively. Over

Cumulative Deflection and Pavement Performance
Transportation Engineering Journal of ASCE, 1975Pavement engineers have not been able to predict the performance of pavement systems prior to their actual construction and operational utilization. A solution to this problem is obtained by verifying the following hypothesis. There is a functional relationship between the cumulative peak deflections sustained by a given pavement system and the ...
