Strategies to Improve Density and Moisture Resistance of Asphalt Mixtures in Oregon

Creator:: Kumar, Vikas
Abstract:: Asphalt pavements constitute more than ninety percent of the nation’s roadway network. Besides serving the key role of providing a smooth and durable all-weather surface that benefits a range of users, they are also the lifelines of the nation and the world and contribute tremendously towards economic and social development....

Reducing Centerline Rumble Strips Effects on Pavement Performance

Creator:: Weaver, Joshua D.
Abstract:: Centerline rumble strips (CLRS) have proven to be a cost-effective safety measure in reducing lane departure crashes. However, there are often unintended consequences associated with the installation of CLRS, particularly in rural mountainous areas or snow zones. These consequences include the accumulation of water and ice on the roadway and...

Improving Fatigue Cracking and Moisture Resistance of Asphalt Mixtures

Creator:: Obaid, Ihsan A.
Abstract:: The resistance of asphalt concrete pavement to distresses such as fatigue cracking and permanent deformation is governed by how well the structure can resist loading under a variety of traffic and climate-related conditions. Asphalt binder type and content are typically the variables that pavement engineers can manipulate to render the...

Improving Long-Term Interlayer Bond Performance by Developing Quality Control Technologies and Certification Procedures for Tack Coats

Creator:: Villarreal, Richard C., III
Abstract:: The tack coat bond is known to affect the longevity of asphalt pavements. Proper interlayer bonding prevents successive pavement layers from acting independently of one another and creating non-uniform stress and strain profiles in the pavement structure. Poor bonding between pavement layers can result in various pavement failures such as...

Field and Numerical Investigation of Pavement Vehicle Interaction Related Excess Fuel Consumption and Delamination

Creator:: Estaji, Mostafa
Abstract:: With ever-increasing number of vehicles actively using the state and national roadway network, transportation-related fuel consumption and consequent pavement structural damage rises. In this dissertation, the impact of material-induced dissipated energy mechanisms in asphalt and concrete pavements were analyzed using field measurements in California and finite element modeling of pavement...

Innovative Strategies to Protect Concrete Bridge Decks and Cross-Laminated Timber Structures through the Use of Impermeable Overlays

Creator:: Haynes, Matthew A.
Abstract:: Bridges are a vital component of transportation infrastructure in the United States, and the continual maintenance and preservation of bridges is critical to maintaining their structural capacity and maximizing service life. One of the most significant issues faced by concrete bridges is the infiltration of moisture from the roadway surface...

Developing Performance-Based Specifications to Improve the Fatigue Life of Asphalt Pavements in Oregon

Creator:: Sreedhar, Shashwath
Abstract:: Asphalt concrete fatigue cracking is recognized as a major distress mode in the U.S. The widespread nature of this distress and the data from agency Pavement Management Systems (PMS) suggest that it is an issue with asphalt mixture design and production processes and is not a problem specific to certain...

Improving Interlayer Bond Quality with Engineered Tack Coats under Adverse Construction Conditions: A Laboratory and Field Investigation

Creator:: Wruck, Blaine M.
Abstract:: Tack coat emulsion, comprised of asphalt binder, water and emulsifying agents, is an interlayer membrane applied before asphalt pavement construction, which helps pavement layers bond together and permeate stresses and strains induced by heavy wheel loads through the entire thickness of the pavement structure. Proper interlayer bonding aids in preventing...

Quantification of Recycled Asphalt Pavement Blending and Tack Coat Performance to Develop Strategies to Improve Pavement Longevity

Creator:: Lewis, Sunny
Abstract:: Decreases in pavement program funding levels have encouraged paving agencies to adopt higher levels of recycled materials into their asphalt mixes. In order to fully evaluate the effects of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixes, the level of blending between the RAP and virgin binders in...

Moving towards sustainability and increasing user safety by improving performance of RAP mixtures and developing a network-level decision-making tool for pavement maintenance

Creator:: Haddadi, Sogol Sadat
Abstract:: Due to a general reduction in pavement program funding levels over the past decade, the current budget is not sufficient to maintain roadways at a high level of service with acceptable roughness levels. Rough roadways with poor ride quality increase drivers’ vehicle operating costs (fuel consumption, vehicle maintenance, and tire-wear)...
