Geotechnical Engineering in Transportation and Pavement Design
Description
Geotechnical Engineering in Transportation and Pavement Design
The content of the lecture is divided into the parts “geotechnical fundamentals in transportation”, “construction technology and materials” and “pavement design”. In the first part, soil stabilization, artificial compaction, testing of soils as well as the effects of frost are discussed for traffic route engineering. Thereafter, knowledge of the building materials and construction methods used in transportation is imparted with reference to European and national standards. After conveying some introductory concepts on the structural behaviour of asphalt, different design methods and models for pavements are subsequently examined.
This knowledge is conveyed through lectures, practical demonstrations, moderated exercises and assignments (to be completed independently).
