Reflective Cracking in Pavements Design and performance of overlay systems [Hardcover]

Proceedings of RILEM TC-PRC third conference on this subject. Papers from road authorities, engineers, researchers, contractors and manufacturers discussing the implementation and the long term behaviour of overlay systems. The following topics are covered: prevention and cracking assessment, choice and design of overlay systems, practical implementation, case histories and long term performance.Cracking in pavements: nature and origin of cracks. Assessment and evaluation of the crack potential. Crack prevention and use of overlay systems. Characterisation of overlay systems. Modelling and structural design of overlay systems. Implementation of overlay systems on the construction site.
