TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2368 consists of 14 pages that explore long-lasting perpetual asphalt pavements; a global sensitivity analysis of mechanistic–empirical performance predictions for flexible pavements; a framework for determining load equivalencies; mitigation of rutting in asphalt overlays of concrete pavements; top-down cracking of asphalt pavements in North Carolina; and an assessment of fatigue cracking in flexible pavements.
This issue of the TRR also examines the combined effect of three-dimensional contact load and thermal gradients on the cracking performance of heavy-duty asphalt pavements; the development of a full-scale reflective cracking test; the performance of prediction models for cracked, seated, and overlaid concrete pavements; improvements is full-depth repair practices for distresses in continuously reinforced concrete pavement; responses and performance of stabilized full-depth reclaimed pavements; available mechanistic–empirical procedures for reflective cracking in asphalt overlays of concrete pavements; a refined failure mode for thin and ultrathin whitetopping; and revised design procedures for thin and ultrathin bonded whitetopping.
