Characterisation and Performance Evaluation of Granular Bases Project: Pavement Construction Report

A new rut resistance approach based on the wheel-tracking test for unbound granular materials has been developed. The objective of the Austroads project TT1819 is to validate the wheel-tracker laboratory approach against large-scale Accelerated…

Australian National Risk Assessment Model
The Australian National Risk Assessment Model (ANRAM) helps road agencies identify fatal and serious injury (severe) crash risk across all parts of the road network. ANRAM helps road agencies manage this risk through development of treatment…
Model National Guidelines for Setting Speed Limits at High-risk Locations
This report incorporates recent research, best practice examples, and jurisdictional inputs to propose a set of model national speed limit guidelines for setting speed limits at high-risk locations. The model guidelines represent a harm reduction…
Development of Performance-Based Specifications for Unbound Granular Materials: Part A: Issues and Recommendations
The Austroads Member Authorities (AMAs) are developing a Performance Based Specification (PBS) approach to the specification of unbound granular materials in Australia and New Zealand. There has been general agreement to adopt the engineering…
Development of Performance-based Specifications for Unbound Granular Materials Part B: Use of RLT Test to Predict Performance
The Austroads Member Authorities (AMAs) are developing a Performance Based Specification (PBS) approach to the specification of unbound granular materials in Australia and New Zealand. There has been general agreement to adopt the engineering…
Pavement Strength in Network Analysis of Sealed Granular Roads: Basis for Austroads Guidelines
This technical report resulted from a study to develop Austroads guidelines on network level assessment and analysis of data on pavement structural condition. This report outlines the benefits of network level assessment of the structural condition,…
Dust Laying with Bitumen Emulsions
This Pavement Work Tip describes the use of bitumen emulsion for dust laying on unsealed granular pavements to reduce dust nuisance, maintenance costs and loss of pavement material.
