Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields includes the contributions to the 10th International Conference on the Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields (BCRRA 2017, 28-30 June 2017, Athens, Greece). The papers cover aspects related to materials, laboratory testing, design, construction, maintenance and management systems of transport infrastructure, and focus on roads, railways and airfields. Additional aspects that concern new materials and characterization, alternative rehabilitation techniques, technological advances as well as pavement and railway track substructure sustainability are included. The contributions discuss new concepts and innovative solutions, and are concentrated but not limited on the following topics: · Unbound aggregate materials and soil properties · Bound materials characteritics, mechanical properties and testing · Effect of traffic loading · In-situ measurements techniques and monitoring · Structural evaluation · Pavement serviceability condition · Rehabilitation and maintenance issues · Geophysical assessment · Stabilization and reinforcement · Performance modeling · Environmental challenges · Life cycle assessment and sustainability Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields is essential reading for academics and professionals involved or interested in transport infrastructure systems, in particular roads, railways and airfields.

This report includes the results of testing Crumb Rubber Modified (CRM) asphalt to quantify the layer coefficient values for CRM mixes. Several test sections were selected from recently constructed CRM pavement. The Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) data were collected at 15 meter intervals on each test section during a one month period.

This report covers the Fiscal Year 2002 project conducted at the Accelerated Testing Laboratory at Kansas State University. The project was selected and funded by the Midwest Accelerated Testing Pooled Fund Program, which includes Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. The objective of this research was to determine the effectiveness of the use of foamed asphalt stabilized Recycled Asphalt Pavement from full-depth reclamation (FAS-FDR) as base material for flexible pavements. The experiment consisted of constructing four pavements, one with a 9-in. conventional Kansas AB-3 granular base and three with 6-, 9-, and 12-in. FAS-FDR, and subjecting them to full-scale accelerated pavement test.
