Engineers came up with a set of tests to make sure reclaimed asphalt pavement resists skidding and sliding when wet.
Summer means road construction − but what kind of engineering goes into laying down pavement?
There is no data to speak categorically on whether concrete pavement is better than flexible pavement for Nigeria.
The quality of asphalt binder — the glue that holds roads together — influences their condition. Binder made from Alberta bitumen is low in waxes and could extend pavement lifespan.
Crews patch them, just to see these recurrent potholes come back again. New research focuses on microwaves zapping patches to make a more permanent pothole fix.
