Pavement Drainage: Theory and Practice

By: G L Sivakumar Babu,Prithvi S. Kandhal,Nivedya Mandankara Kottayi,Rajib Basu Mallick,Amirthalingam Veeraragavan

SUMMARY This book provides complete coverage of surface and subsurface drainage of all types of pavements for highways, urban roads, parking lots, airports, and container terminals. It provides up-to-date information on the principles and technologies for designing and building drainage systems and examines numerous issues, including maintenance and designing for flood events. Practical considerations and sophisticated analysis, such the use of the finite element method and unsaturated soil mechanics, anisotropy and uncertainties, are presented. This book allows civil engineers to make the best use of their resources to provide cost effective and sustainable pavements. Features Presents a holistic consideration of drainage with respect to pavement performance. Includes numerous practical case studies. Examines flooding and the impacts of climate change. Includes PowerPoint slides which include quizzes, schematics, figures, and tables.

Accelerated Laboratory Rutting Tests

Evaluation of the Asphalt Pavement Analyzer

By: Prithvi S. Kandhal,L. Allen Cooley,National Cooperative Highway Research Program

During the past 25 years, the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, in collaboration with the Russian Academy of Sciences, have carried out a wide variety of activities to improve understanding of the challenges in containing and reducing ethnic conflicts, violent extremism, and terrorism. Roots and Trajectories of Violent Extremism and Terrorism provides an overview of this cross-ocean program, which has involved American and Russian scientists, engineers, and medical professionals from a large number of government agencies, leading research institutions, think tanks, educational institutions, analytical centers, and consulting and commercial firms in the two countries. This report highlights challenges addressed by the academies over many years that remain of current interest as the U.S., Russian, and other governments continue to cope with old and new forms of aggression that threaten the livelihood of populations at home and abroad.

BITUMINOUS ROAD CONSTRUCTION IN INDIA, SECOND EDITION

By: KANDHAL, PRITHVI SINGH,VEERARAGAVAN, AMIRTHALINGAM,CHOUDHARY, RAJAN

This is the first ever text-cum-reference book in India on “Bituminous Road Construction”. It includes references to the codes and specifications of the Indian Roads Congress and the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), besides the international standards such as ASTM and AASHTO. This book provides a thorough knowledge of bituminous road construction such as bitumen; aggregate; mix design; special mixes such as stone matrix asphalt and warm mix asphalt; structural design of flexible pavements; asphalt production and construction; distresses in asphalt pavements; maintenance and rehabilitation of asphalt pavements including recycling; and interesting investigations of premature failure of asphalt pavements across the world. It includes a large number of photographs for easy comprehension of the subject matter. This book has been designed to serve as a text for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of Civil Engineering for the courses on: Highway Materials including Testing Laboratory; Asphalt Mix Design; Highway Construction and Maintenance; Highway Pavement Failures; and Design of Flexible Pavements. Cutting-edge technology on bituminous road constructions, included in the book, helps M.Tech and Ph.D. students in conducting research in this field. Since over 95% of highways have bituminous surface, this book is also an ideal reference for thousands of practicing highway engineers who are engaged in the most ambitious highway construction programme ever in India. Highlights of the Second Edition: • Incorporates cutting-edge technology on the topics covered • Includes new sections on bitumen chemistry; durability of bitumen; Balanced Mix Design (BMD); asphalt mix characterization; perpetual pavements; QC/QA in India; and rehabilitation of distressed concrete pavements with bituminous overlays; and life cycle costs of bituminous versus concrete pavements. TARGET AUDIENCE • B.Tech Civil Engineering • M.Tech Highway Education • Practicing Highway Engineer
