This report provides the results of testing of three potentially reactive aggregates by the accelerated mortar bar test (AMBT) and the concrete prism test (CPT).
The tests were conducted using reference mixes, which contained plain Portland cement as…
This report provides a compendium of recent and robust evidence on the relationships between twenty key geometric design criteria and safety outcomes.
The project critically reviewed quality research sources to identify crash modification factors…
This report details a literature review on durability issues that affect the service life of reinforced concrete structures.
The review focused on information from sources within Australia and overseas, including published literature, standards,…
This report draws on literature and crash data analysis to identify and quantify geometric road design elements which contribute to casualty crash occurrence and severity on rural roads, e.g. lack of sealed shoulders, steep downhill grades combined…
Despite the fact that the occurrence of large earthquakes in Australia is rare, the consequences can be fatal and costly. The performance of bridges during and after earthquake events is critical in ensuring that road networks remain operational and…
These guidelines provide essential information regarding Buried corrugated metal structures (BCMS) from the design process, installation, in-service monitoring, through to maintenance and repair procedures. BCMS have been used in Australia as an…
This project forms part of an ongoing Austroads strategic research program to improve the understanding of the relationship between crash risk and road elements. This report provides a summary of the relationship between crash risk, and geometric…
