Abstract:
Axle load data and traffic survey data are both important outputs of highway sensors. This study targets highways and ordinary national and provincial highways, seeking to calculate axle load spectrum and equivalent axle times across the network. There is often an association in the spatial extent of traffic survey data and axle load detection data in highway networks. Initially, using the Highway Asphalt Pavement Design Specification, it analyzes the demand for these calculations in road sections. Considering the current axle load detection coverage, a method supported by highway traffic data

The passing of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act required the FHWA to adopt pavement performance measures for evaluating the condition of the interstate highway system (IHS) and the national highway system (NHS). In January 2015, the FHWA issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to establish performance measures to assess pavement conditions on the IHS and NHS, with the final rule published in January 2017. The four measures were 1) Percentage of pavements on the IHS in good condition; 2) Percentage of pavements on the IHS in poor condition; 3) Percentage of pavements

Engineering corridors on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau have substantially modified the regional ecosystem functions and environment, resulting in changes in the alpine ecosystem. In addition, the building and operation of these engineering corridors have led to rapid permafrost degradation, which in turn has impacted local vegetation along these corridors. This study investigated vegetation changes and their driving factors by the methods of coefficient of variation, correlation analysis, and GeoDetector in a 30 km wide buffer zone at each side along the National Highway G214 (G214) at the norther

Changes in the 2005 edition of the National building code of Canada resulted in an increase in earthquake hazard for some regions in Canada. This project studied the impact of this increase on a selected highway bridge. A seismic retrofit scheme, using carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRPs), was developed and applied to the selected highway bridge bent. The retrofitting technique is based on specific performance criteria under which the retrofitted structure must meet prescribed ductility levels corresponding to selected seismic events, and its design includes a new confinement model for rei

Each time, on their trans-valley route the elk crossed a busy highway, a railway, and a partly frozen river. Sightings of el

In the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the national average gasoline price in the U.S. rose sharply. In response, President Biden wanted Congress to temporarily suspend the 18.4 cents per gallon federal gasoline tax. However, critics pointed out that gas tax suspension could: (1) undermine U.S. climate policy goals by encouraging the use of gasoline cars, (2) threaten U.S. national security by providing additional oil revenue to the Russian government for expanding its military capabilities, and (3) undermine the economy by defunding federal highway infrastructure.

Assessment of traffic noise pollution in developing countries is complex due to heterogeneity in traffic conditions like traffic volume, road width, honking, etc. To analyze the impact of such variables, a research study was carried out on a national highway passing from an urban agglomeration. Traffic volume and noise levels (L10, L min , L max , L eq and L90) were measured during morning and evening peak hours. Contribution of noise by individual vehicle was estimated using passenger car noise unit. Extent of noise pollution and impact of noisy vehicles were estimated using noise pollution l

The design and crash test results of a median barrier version of the Flared Energy-Absorbing Terminal, known as FLEAT-MT, are presented. This energy-absorbing terminal is designed for use with a W-beam, strong-post median barrier. The FLEAT-MT terminal uses two standard FLEAT terminals, one for each of the two W-beam rail elements. The energy-absorbing capability of the FLEAT-MT terminal is based on the sequential kinking concept, similar to that used with the Sequential Kinking Terminal and FLEAT guardrail terminals.
