Book Highway Research

Download or read book Highway Research written by Institution of Civil Engineers (Great Britain) and published by Thomas Telford. This book was released on 1991 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The level of research activity in the highway sector as a whole has declined precipitously in recent decades, whilst the challenges facing US state highway agencies have escalated. As a result, a Strategic Highway Research Program - SHRP) was initiated to establish collaboration with research bodies tackling similar highway problems in countries worldwide. This collection of reports from around the world presents SHRP`s progress towards providing research-based new products from which the international highway engineering community may benefit. SHRP concentrates on six high-priority research areas: asphaltic materials; pavement performance; cement and concrete; maintenance cost effectiveness; concrete bridge component protection systems and the chemical control of snow and ice.

Book SHRP LTPP General Pavement Studies

Download or read book SHRP LTPP General Pavement Studies written by William O. Hadley and published by Strategic Highway Research Program (Shrp). This book was released on 1994 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The General Pavement Studies (GPS) examine selected in-service pavements and compile data to form a comprehensive national pavement performance database that meets the objectives of the Strategic Highway Research Program's Long-Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) project. The purpose of this report is to document the development, evolution, and current status of GPS. Data collection criteria were developed for each of the various data elements in GPS, including traffic, skid resistance, deflection, profile, distress, environment, material properties, and climate. Some data were collected by states, others by the SHRP regional offices.

Book SHRP LTPP Data Analysis Studies

Download or read book SHRP LTPP Data Analysis Studies written by William O. Hadley and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the principal objectives of the Strategic Highway Research Program Long-Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) study was the development of a comprehensive electronic media database for housing pavement performance data covering a wide range of conditions and service life factors. The database was structured to address pavement management and engineering design issues. The extent and scope of information contained within the LTPP database and Information Management System (IMS) also provides the resources not only to evaluate or revise existing design equations but to develop new ones. During the first 5 years of the SHRP-LTPP program, most issues have been addressed in various data analysis studies. Data analysis studies concerning load equivalency factors, materials and construction variability, rutting initiation studies, and the results of the specific SHRP-LTPP data analysis contracts are presented in subsequent sections of this report. These studies represent initial efforts in pursuit of LTPP goals and operatives and are based primarily on early General Pavement Studies data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of the first 5 years of the Strategic Highway Research Program Long-Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) program. The background, LTPP history, activities and approaches, and decision-making processes of the program are detailed. Included are summaries of the studies initiated for general and specific pavement types, the characterization of pavement materials, monitoring activities, the LTPP database and Information Management System, data analysis, traffic data collection and analysis, as well as a summary of the contributions made by international participants. The general LTPP program is described and the expected results, products, and benefits are also outlined.

Book Long term Pavement Performance Information Management System

Download or read book Long term Pavement Performance Information Management System written by William O. Hadley and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the information management system within SHRP-LTPP to service the NPPDB and the quality assurance checks that verify the presence, reasonableness, accuracy, and validity of the data prior to incorporation into the NPPDB. The National Pavement Performance Database (NPPDB) houses many types of data including inventory, materials characterization, longitudinal profile, deflection, cross profile, distress, friction, maintenance, rehabilitation, climate, and traffic. The report discusses data types and elements in detail and notes data sources. Equipment and operations of the NPPDB are described, as well as NPPDB products.

Book LTPP Profile Variability

Download or read book LTPP Profile Variability written by Lynn D. Evans and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Long Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program has been collecting profile and International Roughness Index (IRI) information from more than 2,062 test sections since 1989 using K.J. Law 690DNC optical sensor Profilometers. Analysis of the IRI data has been limited, but with the increasing distribution of the LTPP DataPave software, this data is seeing increasing use. In an effort to confirm the quality of LTPP IRI data in the Information Management System (IMS) database and to document its variability, LTPP initiated an analysis of IRI variability in September 1997. This report documents the results of that study.
