The purpose of this literature review is to assess the current body of research for the incorporation of recycled material in pavements to inform updated guidance to the current Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology Part 4E: Recycled Materials. New…

This webinar, presented by Dr Negin Zhalehjoo, Andrew Papacostas and Dr Didier Bodin, focuses on the outcomes of an Austroads research project &ldquo

This webinar, presented by Dr James Grenfell and Dr Didier Bodin, focuses on the development of a specification on the supply of recycled crushed glass sand as part of a project to support increased use of recycled crushed glass (RCG) in road…

This method describes the procedure for obtaining a measure of the evenness of a pavement surface as determined by the deviation from a three metre straightedge. It is applicable only to the measurement of depressions in the pavement surface and to…

This test method sets out procedures for the preparation of asphalt specimens and measuring the change in indirect tensile strength resulting from the effects of moisture and freeze/thaw conditioning. The results can be used to assess the propensity…

The characterisation of the flexural stiffness and fatigue behaviour of bituminous mixtures in Australia and New Zealand is undertaken using a four-point bending (4PB) configuration. This document describes the procedures to be followed to verify…

The test method outlines the procedure for determining the permeability of a water-saturated asphalt specimen in the laboratory using the ponding method. The test method was primarily developed for dense-graded, stone mastic and gap-graded asphalt…

This report documents a project to develop a new laboratory fatigue relationship to predict the performance of foamed bitumen stabilised (FBS) materials. The project focused on extensive laboratory experiments including indirect tensile testing and…

The purpose of this guideline is to provide potential recyclers with the information they need to gain a better understanding of how recycled crushed glass (RCG) should be processed to make it fit-for-purpose for infrastructure applications. This…

This report presents the technical basis for the development of the Austroads technical specification and guideline for the use of recycled glass in bedding, backfilling material, concrete, road drainage, embankment fill, and landscaping…
