The current Australian rigid road pavement design procedure considers both structural concrete slab fatigue and subbase erosion. The erosion component was introduced in the 1992 edition of the Austroads pavement design guide as nomographs and incorporated as algorithms in the 2004 edition of the guide. The erosion distress criteria were...
ASCP2021 6th Concrete Pavements (e)Conference – Proceedings (with video recordings)
Outline 2020 tested our flexural capacity and at times strained our mental tensile strength to 85% yield. To maintain tradition, ASCP has worked hard to develop a unique line-up of papers and delivery format for its 6th Concrete Pavements Conference which was delivered in August 2021. Like previous biennial conferences,...
