This book was released on 2007 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, the Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT) Chief Engineer asked the Virginia Transportation Research Council to develop a vision of how and when VDOT would have a working end-result specification for hot-mix asphalt. The response to that question was that it would take several years and many steps to achieve. This report discusses the next step in that ongoing effort, which includes the development and simulated application of two statistical quality assurance (SQA) special provisions, one for asphalt concrete material and the other for asphalt concrete pavement. The criteria for these prototype SQA provisions included the application of standard national terminology and approach, a firm basis in existing VDOT specifications, and quality characteristics that represent the best practical performance measures. This report describes the outcome of a "shadow" application of the proposed SQA specifications to a subset of Virginia's annual maintenance-resurfacing projects. Although the involved production and placement activities were not subject to the requirements of the SQA specifications, the sampling and testing were designed to represent what would have been required had the special provisions been in effect. The study further determined the likely acceptance outcome for each shadow project and explored future modifications to specification limits and pay adjustment criteria. The most desirable benefit from effective end-result specifications stems from the ability to rededicate available inspection to those key production and placement processes (e.g., joint tacking and surface preparation) that cannot be measured upon delivery to the owner/agency. A less desirable, but more tangible, financial benefit results when these specifications permit a reduction in the overall inspection force. One conservative estimate suggests that VDOT could save more than $2 million per year in inspector salaries through an end-result specification for acceptance of hot-mix asphalt pavements

This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for lnformation and Numerica/ Data Analysis and Synthesis (C/NDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficia! to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After fi ve years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of ali concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume 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 App/ied 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. Ali back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 21 (thesis year 1976) a total of 10,586 theses titles from 25 Canadian and 219 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work.

This book was released on 1970 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York State Department of Transportation's Engineering Research and Development Bureau has developed a computer simulation of asphaltic concrete production, for evaluation and improvement of quality assurance. As far as can be determined, this is the first simulation directed towards formulating a quality assurance program for blending of bulk materials. This report describes the formulation of the computer model, the simulation of plant operating characteristics and generation of data on their simulated operation, and the development of a quality assurance program using simulated plant data. Program listings, and sample input and output, are also provided.
