Towards a Performance Evaluation Method for Durable and Sustainable Thin Surfacings

Thin surfacings are widely used as surface layers to provide additional functions and to extend the service life of existing pavements. They can protect the treated road surfaces from external aggressive substances, the degeneration process of weather and the ageing caused by Ultraviolet light and oxygen. Antiskid surfacing is one type of thin...

Advanced Pull Test to Determine Adhesion Properties of Thin Surfaces for Pavement

Thin surfaces are specially designed to provide significant additional surface properties to pavements without affecting other qualities of the surface such as ride quality and durability. In addition to economic benefits, thin surfaces can protect pavements against deterioration caused by traffic and weather. One of the most important...
