Assessment of Magetan regency’s road performance based on pavement and off pavement components
Roads are made up of both pavement and off pavement components. In many cases, only road pavement is subjected to maintenance, leaving out accessory road components even though these components also contribute to overall road performance.

Pavement Engineering for Forest Roads [PDF]
Pavement is an essential component of roads as it carries the traffic and provides the required riding comfort. Considering that numerous forest roads are approaching their end of life, the critical issue is identifying the best rational pavement design methods to reengineer existing and build new pavement structures.
