The mechanical properties of pavement materials are crucial to the design and performance of flexible pavements. One of the most commonly used measures of these properties is the resilient modulus (Er). Many different models were developed to predict the...

Flexible pavements are mostly affected by meteorological factors in addition to traffic loads, which results in premature pavement failures like rutting and moisture-induced damage. This study focuses on the impacts of adding various contents of nano-sil...

One alternative measure to minimise the stormwater runoff volume and its pollutants and reduce impervious areas is to use permeable pavement. However, due to weak mechanical performance under heavy-load traffic related to fatigue resistance, porous mixtu...

Calcareous sand is a special marine soil rich in calcium carbonate minerals, characterized by brittle particles. It is, therefore, widely used as a filling material in the construction of islands and reefs. In this study, a series of cyclic tri-axial tes...

In several countries, brick and ceramic tile are the most important construction materials; therefore, associated waste generation is common in construction and demolitions. An alternative use for waste is to incorporate it into road construction. Howeve...

One of the most effective ways to increase the longevity of pavement structures is through the integration of geosynthetic reinforcement. Geosynthetics are synthetic materials such as geotextiles, geogrids, or geocomposites that are added to the interfac...

In addition to the conventional laboratory tests of input materials and construction mixtures, the technically correct design of pavement structure involves more frequent functional tests of the input materials and mixtures. Our study summarizes findings...
