A large percentage of the asphaltic paving projects performed in Wisconsin are asphaltic overlays of existing concrete or asphaltic pavements. Due to varying performance of overlay, a standard set of guidelines is needed ...

This research study was conducted to determine the influence of maximum aggregate size, lift thickness, and aggregate source on the density and permeability of asphalt mixtures designed according to the Superpave criteria. ...

Wisconsin DOT District 7 filed a Report of Early Distress for a 6.5-mile stretch of USH 8 and an 8-mile stretch of USH 51 near Rhinelander in 2001. An investigation of the causes for the premature failures concluded that ...

This research project addresses rehabilitation techniques for reinforced and prestressed concrete bridges, focusing primarily on corrosion of prestressed concrete beam-ends. An extensive literature database on repair of ...

This report introduced the research begun in 1999 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to further understand aspects of geosynthetic-reinforced subbases in a pavement system. To learn more about how the performance of ...

The objective of this research was to synthesize information on structural health monitoring technologies with a specific interest in those having smart-structure attributes. Following a comprehensive information collection ...

The primary objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness and relative performance of commercially available concrete bridge deck and crack sealants. A total of thirteen deck sealants and ten crack sealants were ...

A study was performed to investigate current methods for using EMG technology to assess the capabilities, limitations, and costs associated with these methods, and to identify EMG consultants and equipment that may be ...

This study was conducted to develop a methodology to incorporate the structural contribution of working platforms, including those constructed with industrial by-products, into the design of flexible pavements. Structural ...

The use of the soil stiffness gauge (SSG) and dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP) for earthwork property evaluation is investigated in this study. SSG and DCP survey data of natural earthen materials, industrial by-products, ...
