Investigation of Feasible Pavement Design Alternatives for WisDOT [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The current pavement design and selection process of WisDOT for all new pavements or reconstructions of existing pavement structures provides for the design of one asphaltic concrete (AC) and one portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement alternative.

Analysis of Structural Performance Evaluation of Asphalt Concrete Pavement Based on Unsupervised Learning

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The structural performance evaluation of asphalt concrete pavements is critical for ensuring traffic safety and optimizing maintenance strategies. Traditional nondestructive testing methods often rely on complex models and extensive manual intervention, limiting their efficiency and real‐time applicability.

Relationship Between Microstructure and Long‐Term Strength of Compacted Q2 Loess Under High Confining Pressure

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The microstructure of compacted loess exerts a substantial influence on its long‐term strength. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the law governing how microstructural changes affect its long‐term strength is conducive to guiding the construction of high‐fill loess projects.

A Bio-Wicking System to Prevent Frost Heave in Alaskan Pavements: Phase II Implementation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Water within pavement layers is the major cause of pavement deterioration. High water content results in significant reduction in soil’s resilient behavior and an increase in permanent deformation.

Mechanism and Modeling of Strength Loss for Saline Aeolian Sand: A Deterioration Framework Under Freeze‐Thaw Cycles

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
In desert edge areas, the degree of soil salinization is high, and aeolian sand contains a significant amount of fines. As fine‐grained aeolian sand is more susceptible to temperature, moisture, and salt influences compared to pure aeolian sand, its use in road construction may induce roadbed diseases at later stages.

A Bio-Wicking System to Mitigate Capillary Water in Base Course [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Water within pavement layers is the major cause of pavement deteriorations. High water content results in significant reduction in soil’s resilient behavior and increase in permanent deformation. Conventional drainage systems can only drain gravity water
