Physical road infrastructure such as pavement markings and signals may have an important role to play to support the uptake of automated vehicles (AVs). Austroads has recently completed a project to provide road agencies with clear advice on…

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

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…

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…

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 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…

These reports provide guidance on infrastructure investment to help transport agencies achieve timely, consistent and adequate infrastructure readiness for the operation of current and future automated vehicles. Physical road infrastructure such as…

This report presents an agency business capability model to support connected vehicles. The model defines the required agency business capabilities and associated capability maturity target states from business and technology perspectives. Connected…
