The field of Asphalt Materials and Pavement Engineering is undergoing significant innovation with developments in material science, life cycle assessment, and smart infrastructure systems. Asphalt ...

Understanding Cape Coral’s Asphalt Environment Cape Coral’s climate is both an asset and a challenge. Warm temperatures allow ...

Given roads are everywhere and involve some carbon-intensive processes to build, scientists are investigating how alternative materials could make the whole process more sustainable. We've seen how ...

It can be termed as the building block of the pavements without which all the pavement materials would behave independently and thus will be deemed useless. Almost ninety percent of bitumen is used in ...

Researchers propose a figurative and literal green solution to improve the durability of roads and sidewalks: an algae-derived asphalt binder.

When it comes to beating back climate change, the big ideas get the most buzz. But among talk of banning gas-burning cars, making tech companies run server farms on renewable energy, and ...

Winter’s freeze-thaw cycle is brutal on roads, and fixing the damage costs billions every year. Cracking asphalt, frost heaves, and potholes are more than just annoyances for drivers and pedestrians.

Researchers have developed a novel AI-driven framework using the XGBoost algorithm to accurately evaluate the skid resistance of asphalt pavements under various conditions. Published in Smart ...

The development of porous asphalt pavements was a big innovation in the industry. Theses surfaces improve safety while also decreasing the sound pollution when cars drive on it. However, this type of ...

Ninety percent of the plastic we use ends up in landfills, or in the world's oceans. Now, a Scottish firm has invented a way to recycle that hard-to-use plastic for a role that requires durability: ...
