Functional pavements : proceedings of the 6th Chinese-European Workshop on Functional Pavement Design (CEW 2020), Nanjing, China, 18-21 October 2020
\"Functional Pavements is a collection of papers presented at the 6th Chinese-European Workshop (CEW) on Functional Pavement Design (Nanjing, China, October 18-21, 2020). The focus of the CEW series is on field tests, laboratory test methods and advanced analysis techniques, and cover analysis, material development and production, experimental characterization, design and construction of pavements. The main areas covered by the book include: Asphalt binders for flexible pavements Asphalt mixture evaluation and performance Pavement construction and maintenance Pavement Surface Properties and Vehicle Interaction Cementitious materials for rigid pavements Pavement geotechnics and environment Functional Pavements aims at contributing to the establishment of a new generation of pavement design methodologies in which rational mechanics principles, advanced constitutive models and advanced material characterization techniques shall constitute the backbone of the design process. The book will be much of interest to professionals, academics and practitioners in pavement engineering and related disciplines as it should assist them in providing improved road pavement infrastructure to their stakeholders.\"-- Provided by publisher.

Effect of steel fiber and coal ash on the properties of dense bituminous macadam mixes of Indian Roads Congress grading II
Coal ash, a byproduct of thermal power plants is produced in significant quantities worldwide. Improper disposal of it leads to environmental problems. Utilizing Coal Ash (CA) in asphalt pavements addresses this issue. In this research, Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM) mixes of Indian Roads Congress (IRC) grading II mentioned in IRC:111-2009 were prepared using conventional stone coarse aggregates, coal bottom ash for fine aggregate replacement, coal fly ash as a filler material and Helix Steel Fiber (HSF) as a reinforcing additive. For the present laboratory work HSF was incorporated in different proportions such as 0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, 1.25% and 1.50% by the mix’s weight, with different variations of HSF length such as 0 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm & 25 mm. Marshall stability, static indirect tensile strength, moisture damage resistance in connection with Tensile Strength Ratio (TSR) & retained stability tests were performed on the DBM mixes of IRC grading II to evaluate their performance. With the application of CA along with HSF in DBM mixes shows increment in Marshall properties, marginal improvement in resistance to moisture induced damage and increased retained stability values in comparison to the control mix i.e. DBM mixes without CA and HSF. Findings shows that the incorporation of CA in conjunction with HSF improves the Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) of DBM specimens at all tested temperatures compared to the control mix. The combination of CA and HSF for DBM mixes improves the moisture resistance by enhancing adhesion & matrix interlocking. As a result, adding CA along with HSF to DBM mixes can enhance the overall performance of asphalt pavement structures in conjunction with the environmental advantages and the process can be considered feasible as well as viable.

Advances in materials and pavement prediction II : contributions to the 2nd International Conference on Advances in Materials and Pavement Performance Prediction (AM3P 2020), 27-29 May 2020, San Antonio, TX, USA
\"Inspired from the legacy of the previous four 3DFEM conferences held in Delft and Athens as well as the successful 2018 AM3P conference held in Doha, the 2020 AM3P conference continues the pavement mechanics theme including pavement models, experimental methods to estimate model parameters, and their implementation in predicting pavement performance. The AM3P conference is organized by the Standing International Advisory Committee (SIAC), at the time of this publication chaired by Professors Tom Scarpas, Eyad Masad, and Amit Bhasin. Advances in Materials and Pavement Performance Prediction II includes over 111 papers presented at the 2020 AM3P Conference. The technical topics covered include: rigid pavements, pavement geotechnics, statistical and data tools in pavement engineering, pavement structures, asphalt mixtures, asphalt binders. The book will be invaluable to academics and engineers involved or interested in pavement engineering, pavement models, experimental methods to estimate model parameters, and their implementation in predicting pavement performance.\"-- Provided by publisher.
