EVALUATION OF TIRE RUBBER DISPOSAL IN CONCRETE FOR PAVEMENTS

open access: yesJournal of Urban and Environmental Engineering, 2009
The production of waste by the tire industry has been a growing problem, indicating the need for its reuse. More than thirty million tires are discharged per year in Brazil, where regulation for the environment states that for each four new tires, five ...

Characterization model of asphalt mixtures using digital image processing

open access: yesVisión Electrónica, 2023
The construction of roads and highways are the central axis for the development of cultural, economic, and social growth of a country. There are different types of structural materials used for the construction of these roads, among which the use of ...

Effects of Pavement Roughness on Rigid Pavement Stress

open access: yesJournal of Mechanics, 2011
ABSTRACTPavement roughness causes pavement stress fluctuation along the road. However, the dynamic effects were not taken into account in most pavement design and studies. To investigate the influences of roadway roughness on pavement stresses, this study developed a coupled system consisting of a quarter-car model and an equivalent lump pavement model.

Determination of Permanent Deformations of Non-Cohesive Soils in Pavement Structures under Repeated Traffic Load

open access: yesEng
One of the main types of distress in pavement structures is rutting, which may also reduce serviceability significantly. Most design methods typically attribute rutting to the asphalt layer alone, proposing that it can be managed by controlling vertical ...

Functionality Enhancement of Industrialized Optical Fiber Sensors and System Developed for Full-Scale Pavement Monitoring

open access: yesSensors, 2014
Pavements always play a predominant role in transportation. Health monitoring of pavements is becoming more and more significant, as frequently suffering from cracks, rutting, and slippage renders them prematurely out of service.

The Fate of the Antioch Mosaic Pavements: Some Reflections

open access: yesJournal of Mosaic Research, 2012
The paper offers a short memory of the spectacular investigations carried out from 1930 to 1939 in the area of the ancient Antioch, and also remembers the fate of the more than a hundred mosaic pavements uncovered and unearthed in that site.

Study of fatigue performance in a pavement concrete mix reinforced with steel fibers

open access: yesRevista Ingeniería de Construcción, 2020
The behavior in flexural fatigue tests of concrete containing metal fibers has not been extensively studied. Therefore, this study aims at determining the effects of incorporating metal fibers in concrete paving on flexural fatigue tests. A concrete mix

Study of chemical-mineralogical properties of modified soils with polymers addition

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
On highways, the soil is considered a supported material and compound pavements layers. For this, they must have such characteristics that confer stability and mechanical resistance to traffic internal forces during the pavement life.

Reuse of toner powder waste into pavers: a technological and sustainable approach [PDF]

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
Due to its complex recycling process, thousands of laser printer cartridges containing toner powder waste are discarded annually in landfills—an environmentally unsustainable practice.
