According to pavement design principles, the subgrade or soil layer serving as the foundation for pavement depends on the properties and stiffness of the soil material. The resilient modulus (M_R) is the absolute measure of the bearing capacity of the...

This study aimed at evaluating the effect of blended binders on the stabilization of clayey soils intended for use as road and pavement materials in selected regions of Sweden. The stabilization potential of blended binders containing five stabilizer...

The study examines the effects of modifying PG 64-22 asphalt binder with Crumb Rubber Modifier (CRM) and processed oil on its properties. The binder was tested at different temperatures, and different amounts of CRM and processed oil were added to th...

Due to expansion in infrastructure and increased development of urbanization in Ethiopia, most of the places are covered either by impermeable cement concrete or bitumen that blocks the percolation of water from rainfall. A porous concrete made of ze...

In recent years, attention on pavement management is increasing and the research is focused on the development of innovative protocols and comparative evaluation of maintenance alternatives. Among these, the concept of sustainability related to the m...

This paper is intended to examine the efficiency of utilizing the FRP composite material with an externally bonded technique in enhancing the behavior of the damaged B-C joints and controlling their failure mode using the NLFEA approach. At first, th...
