TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2209 contains 9 papers that explore shear bond characteristics of tack coats, estimating material-specific moisture damage characteristics of binder-aggregate interface, specifications for aggregate frictional qualities in flexible pavements, design optimization of permeable friction course mixtures, and macrotexture measurement tests for pavement preservation treatments.
This issue of the TRR also examines measurement of field pavement permeability, effect of warm-mix asphalt technologies on moisture characteristics of asphalt binders and mixtures, laboratory evaluation of open-graded asphalt mixes, and measuring the effect of moisture on asphalt-aggregate bond.
