This report details the experimental program, analysis and findings of the assessment of the impacts of axle mass increases on road deterioration for sprayed seal surfaced unbound granular pavements. Load-damage exponents ranged between two and four…

Austroads works towards uniformity of practice in respect of design, construction and user aspects of roads and bridges and with this purpose in view, publishes guides and procedures.

Traffic Engineering Practice, first published in 1965, is a…

This study investigated the efficacy of Speed Limiting Locally Operating Warning Signs (SLLOWS) at a number of sites in the Perth metropolitan area. It was found that SLLOWS were successful in reducing vehicle speed at all locations (3-4 km/h on…

An existing model predicted binder life by combining a binder hardening (increase in viscosity) model and a distress viscosity model. Inputs for the two models were site temperature parameters, binder durability (resistance to hardening) and seal…

An existing model predicted maximum seal life by combining a binder hardening (increase in viscosity) model and a distress viscosity model. Inputs for the two models were site temperature parameters and binder durability (resistance to hardening).…
