This Austroads Technical Specification ATS 3110 sets out the requirements for the supply of polymer modified binders (PMBs) and crumb rubber modified binders for use in both sprayed sealing and asphalt applications. The technical specification can…

Guide to Pavement Technology Part 2: Pavement Structural Design provides advice for the structural design of sealed road pavements. The advice has been generally developed from the approaches followed by the Austroads member agencies. However, as it…

The use of stabilisation technology for stabilising and recycling materials for pavement construction and maintenance is widely accepted as a cost-effective method of improving long‑term performance and reducing whole-of-life costs of modern,…

Part 2 of the Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology - Pavement Structural Design contains procedures for the design of flexible pavements consisting of unbound granular materials, flexible pavements that contain one or more bound layers, and rigid…

Part 2: Pavement Structural Design – provides advice for the structural design of sealed road pavements. The advice has been generally developed from the approaches followed in the Austroads member authorities. However, as it encompasses the wide…

Guide to Pavement Technology Part 3 addresses the selection of the most appropriate pavement surfacing. The Guide identifies the significant factors that need to be considered in the selection of the most appropriate surfacing, their inter-…

The document provides a guide to the use of bituminous materials in road-making applications. Bituminous materials include bitumen obtained from the refining of crude oil and products derived from bitumen through additional manufacturing processes…
