Austroads Test Methods and Specifications
This document provides a hyperlinked list of the Austroads Test Methods and Specifications.
Webinar: Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risk in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes
This webinar presents the work involved in developing a standardised comparative risk assessment method for assessing life safety risk of dangerous goods being routed through the tunnel or via an alternative surface route.
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Best Practice Review
This report is one of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Case Study Using DG-QRAM in the Australasian Context
This report is one of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Methodology for Comparing Dangerous Goods Risks in Road Tunnels to Those on Alternative Routes: Manual for Using DG-QRAM in the Australasian Context
This report is the second of the three reports produced as part of a project undertaken to establish a comparative risk assessment method for assessing whether a tunnel route is safer than a surface route for the road transit of dangerous goods (DG)…
Webinar: Use of a Driving Simulator to Assess Driver Response to the NorthConnex Tunnel Design Features
How do drivers respond to the iconic tunnel design features included in the NorthConnex road tunnel project? What were the objectives of the designs and have the designs achieved these objectives? How do the designs affect driver behaviour? The…
Simulator Evaluation of Aesthetic Design Features in NorthConnex Road Tunnel: Study 1
This report documents the findings from a research study, which aimed to investigate driver behaviour and perceptions while driving through a simulated version of the Sydney NorthConnex (NCX) road tunnel and evaluate the effectiveness of aesthetic…
Validation of a Driving Simulator for Road Tunnel Research: Study 2
This report documents the findings from a research study which aimed to validate the use of a virtual reality (VR) driving simulator to study driving behaviour in a real road tunnel.
Modified Surface Texture Depth (Pestle Method)
This method describes the procedure for the determination of the surface texture depth of road surfaces, by the sand patch technique. This method is only applicable to surface texture depths greater than 0.3 mm. This method was developed from BS…
Deformation Resistance of Asphalt Mixtures by the Wheel Tracking Test
This document describes the procedures to be followed to test an asphalt specimen using a wheel tracking test device. The procedures can be carried out on prismatic specimens that have been manufactured in the laboratory, cut from an existing…
