Road Surface Management System for Small to Midsized Communities
This paper describes a Road Surface Management Systems (RSMS) developed by the New Hampshire Technology Transfer Center. Subjects covered include RSMS components, road inventories, repair...

Permeable Pavements for Stormwater Quality Enhancement

SLURP: A Watershed Model for Satellite Data
A study is being conducted to determine the utility of satellite data for hydrologic modelling in different physiographic and climatic zones of Canada. As part of that study, a simple...

Premature Failures of Outdoor Masonry Pavements
The authors have investigated and repaired a number of premature inservice failures of masonry paving systems in recent years. These systems have become common, built over underground...

Effect of Lime on Asphalt Concrete Pavement Performance
In the early to mid 1980's, the Federal Highway Administration constructed 15 experimental field test sections in four states designed to investigate mitigating moisture damage...

Curing Time for CRCP Mixtures Based on Flexural Strength
In this paper, the effect of different curing conditions on the flexural strength is investigated, and also the minimum required period for moist curing is found. The combined effect of...

Effect of Environment on Durability of Pavement Materials: An Overview
The best known causes of material degradation in pavements include environment, traffic loads, and the use of substandard materials. Presented in the paper is a critical review of the...

Lime-Fly Ash-Aggregate Base and Subbase Courses
This paper describes the use of lime-fly ash-aggregate (LFA) base and subbase courses for highway pavements. This type pavement course is considered as an alternate to cement treated bases...

Precipitation Simulation Model for Mountainous Areas
This study investigated the use of the Markov chain-mixed exponential (MCME) model as a means of obtaining synthetic daily precipitation amounts at a site, based on knowledge of the mean...

Remotely Sensed Input Data for Real-Time Flood Forecasting
The WATFLOOD flood forecasting system has been developed to use a variety of remotely sensed data, namely weather radar for precipitation, Landsat MSS imagery for land cover classification,...

A Two-Dimensional Model for Estimating Leachate Flow in Landfills
A numerical model has been developed to compute the leachate flow from solid waste landfills in an unsteady state condition. The two-dimensional moisture flow equation along with the boundary...

MECHOD: A Mechanistic Overlay Design Program for Flexible Pavements
This paper presents a fully mechanistic asphalt overlay design procedure for use on microcomputers. The procedure is based on fundamental characteristics of pavement layer properties and...
