Functional Pavements Proceedings of the 6th Chinese-European Workshop on Functional Pavement Design (CEW 2020), Nanjing, China, 18-21 October 2020

Functional Pavements is a collection of papers presented at the 6th Chinese-European Workshop (CEW) on Functional Pavement Design (Nanjing, China, October 18-21, 2020). The focus of the CEW series is on field tests, laboratory test methods and advanced analysis techniques, and cover analysis, material development and production, experimental characterization, design and construction of pavements. The main areas covered by the book include:

? Asphalt binders for flexible pavements
? Asphalt mixture evaluation and performance
? Pavement construction and maintenance
? Pavement Surface Properties and Vehicle Interaction
? Cementitious materials for rigid pavements
? Pavement geotechnics and environment

Functional Pavements aims at contributing to the establishment of a new generation of pavement design methodologies in which rational mechanics principles, advanced constitutive models and advanced material characterization techniques shall constitute the backbone of the design process. The book will be much of interest to professionals, academics and practitioners in pavement engineering and related disciplines as it should assist them in providing improved road pavement infrastructure to their stakeholders.

Preface. Asphalt binders for flexible pavements. Asphalt mixture evaluation and performance. Pavement construction and maintenance. Pavement Surface Properties and Vehicle Interaction. Cementitious materials for rigid pavements. Pavement geotechnics and environment.
