Pavement Engineering will cover the entire range of pavement construction, from soil preparation to structural design and life-cycle costing and analysis. It will link the concepts of mix and structural design, while also placing emphasis on pavement evaluation and rehabilitation techniques. State-of-the-art content will introduce the latest concepts and techniques, including ground-penetrating radar and seismic testing. This new edition will be fully updated, and add a new chapter on systems approaches to pavement engineering, with an emphasis on sustainability, as well as all new downloadable models and simulations.

Addressing the interactions between the different design and construction variables and techniques this book illustrates best practices for constructing economical, long life concrete pavements. The book proceeds in much the same way as a pavement construction project. First, different alternatives for concrete pavement solutions are outlined. The desired performance and behaviour parameters are identified. Next, appropriate materials are outlined and the most suitable concrete proportions determined. The design can be completed, and then the necessary construction steps for translating the design into a durable facility are carried out. Although the focus reflects highways as the most common application, special features of airport, industrial, and light duty pavements are also addressed. Use is made of modeling and performance tools such as HIPERPAV and LTPP to illustrate behavior and performance, along with some case studies. As concrete pavements are more complex than they seem, and the costs of mistakes or of over-design can be high, this is a valuable book for engineers in both the public and private sectors.

Eco-efficient Pavement Construction Materials acquaints engineers with research findings on new eco-efficient pavement materials and how they can be incorporated into future pavements. Divided into three distinctive parts, the book emphasizes current research topics such as pavements with recycled waste, pavements for climate change mitigation, self-healing pavements, and pavements with energy harvesting potential. Part One considers techniques for recycling, Part Two reviews the contribution of pavements for climate change mitigation, including cool pavements, the development of new coatings for high albedo targets, and the design of pervious pavements. Finally, Part Three focuses on self-healing pavements, addressing novel materials and design and performance. Finally, the book discusses the case of pavements with energy harvesting potential, addressing different technologies on this field. - Offers a clear and concise lifecycle assessment of asphalt pavement recycling for greenhouse gas emission with temporal aspects - Applies key research trends to green the pavement industry - Includes techniques for recycling waste materials, the design of cool pavements, self-healing mechanisms, and key steps in energy harvesting

"The topic addressed in the book is very wide, and it is commendable that such a wide range of subtopics are actually covered in enough depth to make it worthwhile to read.....The approach of not only providing technical pavement information, but also relevant applicable regulatory, policy, planning and environmental information provides a good background of the topic to pavement engineers - again information that most of them would not necessarily have had access to without such a compilation of information.....Overall, I view the book as an essential addition to the literature on sustainability in pavements and trust that it will contribute to improved understanding and application of more sustainable practices in highway engineering." - Prof. Wynand JvdM Steyn, Department of Civil Engineering, University of Pretoria, South Africa ************** The worldwide increase in emphasis on sustainability and the environment necessitates a holistic examination of how highways and pavements can be designed, constructed, operated, maintained, preserved and recycled in a more economically, environmentally, and socially sound manner. Rapidly depleting natural resources, anthropogenic climate change implications and increasing financial pressures are some crucial challenges today's and tomorrow's transportation engineers are faced with. A better understanding of the art and science of sustainable highway and pavement engineering will equip them to effect positive economic, environmental, and social change while balancing competing interests. Sustainable Highways, Pavements and Materials provides introductory and yet up-to-date coverage of latest technologies, practices and initiatives related to the contemporary application of sustainability principles during all phases of a pavement's life cycle. Researchers, practitioners, educators and students with an interest in transportation infrastructure will find this book a practical reference that explores various aspects of sustainable highways and pavements, including materials, design, construction, and life-cycle analysis. Important Topics Covered: -Sustainable Transportation Initiatives -Sustainability Impacts of Highways and Pavements -Environmental Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Pavements -Recycled Materials and Beneficial Reuse of Industrial By-Products -Long-Life, Permeable, Quiet and Cool Pavements -Green Highway Rating Systems -Emerging Sustainable Pavement Materials and Technologies
