Concrete, Asphalt & Pavement for Municipal Engineering Technology
This guide is to assist you in researching topics related to Asphalt, Concrete, Cement and pavement as it relates to the Municipal Engineering Technology field.
This report summarizes current literature dealing with the implications of climate change on Canada’s infrastructure, particularly with respect to ensuring the viability of critical built infrastructure. It explores climate impacts and risks to key infrastructure by region and by type and introduces a number of key policy, regulatory, and financial tools for consideration.
A new guide developed by the National Concrete Pavement Technology Center (CP Tech Center) in collaboration with the Portland Cement Association (PCA) offers the latest advances in cement-stabilized subgrade (CSS) soil, a compacted, engineered mixture of pulverized in situ soil, water, and moderate proportions of portland cement that results in a semi-bound to bound material.
During the pavement life cycle, construction and rehabilitation activities and vehicle-road interactions provoke extensive environmental, economic, and social impacts. Therefore, decision-making systems are developed to derive optimal construction and rehabilitation plans, alleviate environmental and economic burdens, and simultaneously increase social benefits.
