Download or read book Measurement and Analysis of Traffic Loads Across the Texas Mexico Border written by Joseph Paul Leidy and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Axle load and gross-vehicle weight characteristics of Mexican-origin commercial trucks processed through the U.S. Customs yard in the city of Laredo, Texas, are described in this report. Investigation of these characteristics particular to Mexican-origin trucks is directed by a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)-sponsored study entitled "Multi-Modal Planning and the U.S.-Mexico Free Trade Agreement" as a prerequisite to evaluating the potential damage to Texas highways posed by international trade traffic. Justifiable concern exists not just with the increasing volume of trade-related truck traffic, but also with the loads carried by Mexican-origin trucks. This study is facilitated by the installation of a weigh-in-motion (WIM) system at the preeminent Southwestern commercial truck port-of-entry (Laredo). Load summaries are presented on five basic truck classes (by axle count) and are based on the original Association of American State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) pavement damage relationships.
Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this jOint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 40 (thesis year 1995) a total of 10,746 thesis titles from 19 Canadian and 144 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 40 reports theses submitted in 1995, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In providing incentives for increased trade among the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) could considerably liberalize freight carriage across these countries' respective borders. While Texas has a substantial economic interest in this increased trade, transportation planners indicate that the state, because of its strategic geographic location and its 2000-km-long border with Mexico, is destined to sustain a disproportionate share of such negative effects as traffic hazards, pavement consumption, and excessive capacity of its highways and border crossings. Accordingly, this report (1) updates and expands international traffic information in the Transborder database; (2) analyzes transborder traffic growth over the period 1993-94 (which takes into account the effects of NAFTA) and 1994-95 (which takes into account the Mexican peso devaluation); and (3) quantifies the amount of U.S.-Mexico trade that uses Texas' highway and rail infrastructure, but which has origins and destinations outside Texas.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents most of this project's first objective, namely, to update and expand the TRANSBORDER data base. This report discusses all relevant data collected and organized in this project, with the exception of international bridge demand and U.S.-Mexico overland commerce data, which warranted a separate report (Report 2932-2). This report includes Texas-Mexico multimodal traffic data (rail, airborne, and waterborne), socioeconomic indicators, truck weight analyses, and energy consumption within the transportation sector. For each type of data, we document and discuss data collection procedures, the different data sources, and practical applications of those data.
