Deflection-Based Approach For Flexible Pavement Design In Thailand
Abstract: Over the next decades, people will continue moving to urban areas all over the world, increasing infrastructure needs to satisfy economic, environmental, and social demands. The connection between civil urban infrastructure and smart cities is strong due to the common goal of fulfilling public service demands. Infrastructure management contributes to the development, evolution, and sustainability of smart cities. The main problem with traditional approaches to the development, evolution, and sustainability of smart cities is the lack of a holistic, integrated vision of infrastructure…

Continued Study on Polyester Polymer Inlays on I-80
Interstate 80 (I-80) in California faces severe concrete pavement wear due to heavy truck traffic and winter tire chain use, especially through the Sierra Nevada mountain range. This damage, called “wear depth,” differs from typical asphalt rutting, and has been difficult to control with previous repair methods. In 2023, Caltrans initiated a pilot project near Donner Summit to evaluate polyester polymer concrete (PPC) inlays as a more durable pavement solution for high-wear conditions. These resin-based materials offer high strength, rapid curing, and strong resistance…
