This Pavement Work Tip provides a guide to the use of nuclear gauges to determine the density of asphalt pavements.

The report summarises the activity in the Austroads sprayed seal design project for 2003/2004. Austroads member authorities were surveyed to determine if there were further issues with sprayed seal design that needed resolution. Recommendations for…

The Austroads Guide to the Selection and Design of Asphalt Mixes does not address the design of mixes containing Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP). The report contains the additions and amendments which should be made to the next revision of the Guide…

A new, performance related asphalt mix design procedure was developed to address increased traffic stressing of pavements and to evaluate new mix types and new binder formulations. A series of Workshops was held in the capital cities of Australia…

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…

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,…

The report describes the work undertaken in the second year of a two year project to assist implementation of a new Australian asphalt mix design procedure. The main tasks undertaken were (i) publication of an update for the Australian Provisional…

Progress towards the development of an integrated specification for Bitumens, Multigrades and Polymer Modified Binders (PMBs) has been achieved by the Austroads Binders project group in 2001/2002. Contributions to this task have been made in the…

This report is the final output of the Austroads project T+E.P.N.528 - `Development of Pavement Structural Condition Parameters for Estimation of Remaining Life`. Currently in Australasia different parameters are used to represent pavement strength…
