The asphalt industry faces growing challenges from stringent greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction mandates and diminishing high-quality virgin material reserves. This review paper positions upcycling as the engineered transfor...

The Passeig de Gràcia is a treasure house of Barcelona's architectural, artistic, commercial and cultural heritage; making it one of the most renowned avenues in the world. This guide aims to introduce you to the histor...

Abstract This study aims to develop a performance grade (PG) zoning map for asphalt pavements along the Kabul–Salang Highway in Afghanistan, considering local climatic conditions and traffic factors, to support optimiz...

Abstract Failures of flexible pavements have been attributed to the indiscriminate use of lateritic soils without prior characterisation. This study investigates the compaction behaviour of lateritic soils at Ife-Sekona ...

Introduction. Polymer fiber is widely used in the production of structural concrete components, in shotcrete for tunnels, concrete slabs, blast-resistant concrete, and solid road pavements. Recently, numerous studies h...

Patagonia is the only continental territory exposed to the southern westerlies. The speed and frequency of these westerly winds generate a landscape strongly influenced by aeolian processes. This research shows a charact...

Urban expansion in East Baton Rouge Parish (EBRP) increasingly replaces vegetated, permeable land with heat-absorbing rooftops and pavements, reducing evapotranspiration and elevating land-surface temperatures (LST). Thi...

This Effect of Nano-carbon additives on mechanical performance and durability of cementitious composites in oi terms of static and dynamic modulus is studied. A Nano carbon powder was admixed in 5%, 10% and 15 % levels a...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS, ·OH, ·OOH, and O₂) are ubiquitous in urban environments and may significantly accelerate asphalt pavement aging, yet their interactions with asphalt components remain poorly understood. ...

Abstract The accurate prediction of the deterioration of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP) is essential for the effective management of pavements and the maintenance of infrastructure. In this study, a co...

Urban waste management should ensure minimal environmental impact and local context adaptation. We present an assessment of the municipal Recycling Centre in Buenos Aires City (Centre), which processes recyclable materia...

Abstract Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) is increasingly used in modern construction because of its improved strength, durability, and versatility. This review analyses data from several research papers to evaluat...

Nature-based solutions (NbS) for urban stormwater management, including bioretention systems, constructed wetlands, green roofs, and permeable pavements, are increasingly promoted as climate adaptation tools that enhance...

El cartel de licitación del proyecto: Mejoramiento (Ampliación) de la Ruta Nacional No. 167, sección: Universal – La Salle no establece como requisito la medición del IRI, sin embargo, en contraste con las especifi...

El objetivo de esta tesis es desarrollar un enfoque holístico del problema de reciclado de pavimentos urbanos, a partir del análisis de un caso específico en la zona del Gran La Plata, donde de hecho existen numerosos...

The Permian Irati Formation, Paraná Basin, Brazil, includes a succession of black shales and mudstones with interbedded carbonate layers, generated under marine conditions. Worldwide known by its famous mesosaur fossill...
