In recent years, urbanization has developed rapidly, and urban road play a vital role as the premise. Due to the good effectiveness of asphalt pavement, which is more popular in urban road, and road maintenance demands are also increasing. In order to make the maintenance work appropriate, accurate pavement performance evaluation is the premise. This paper collects the data of a road pavement condition in Shanghai and calculates the sub-indexes of each section. We use the entropy weight method to obtain the influence degree of each sub-index. Then we use the revised set pair analysis to construct the comprehensive performance evaluation model of urban road pavement. The analysis shows that compared with the standard method and the set pair analysis, the revised model is more objective, in line with the actual use of the road.

ABSTRACTMulti-layer systems theory is one of the concepts used in finding out the amount of strain and stress that occurs in the road pavement system due to vehicle loads. The purpose and goal of this study is to analyze the amount of strain that occurs on the pavement systems in Indonesia, especially in the subgrade position. The type of multi-layer system theory used to calculate the amount of strain includes the theory of one layer systems, two-layer systems and three-layer systems with data analyzed in the form of pavement thickness and type of pavement material.Based on this study, the value of strain obtained by the theory of one-layer system in some of the road data reviewed are 533.8658 microstrains, 361.3456 microstrains, 1577.987601 microstrains, 618,012 microstrains and 140.3075 microstrains. For research with two-layers systems, the results obtained are 1116.2920 microstrains, 544.322 microstrains, 1448.0839 microstrains, 734.1844 microstrains and 738.7226 microstrains. For research with three-layers system, results obtained are 72.20275278; 70.80346908; 192.9638366; 123.1150377dan 391.8845636 microstrains. The results with the calculation of one-layer system are very large because the modulus values of the subgrade layers are not reviewed and only pavement thickness is reviewed. As for calculations with the theory of two-layer systems, the results obtained are far greater than one-layer systems, due to the limitations of the graph to find the value of the ratio between thickness and large contact area. Calculation with the theory of three-layers system is a strain calculation which has a much smaller value compared to the theory of one-layer system and two- layer system. This is because this theory divides the calculated pavement layers into three layers, which is in accordance with the flexible pavement system which divides the pavement layers into three layers, so this calculation is the most ideal calculation because it approaches its original condition.ABSTRAKTeori sistem lapis banyak merupakan salah satu konsep yang digunakan dalam mencari tahu besaran regangan dan tegangan yang terjadi pada sistem perkerasan jalan raya akibat beban kendaraan. Maksud dan tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis mengenai besaran regangan yang terjadi pada jalan raya di Indonesia pada lapisan tanah dasar khususnya di posisi permukaan tanah dasar. Adapun jenis teori sistem lapis banyak yang digunakan untuk menghitung besaran regangan tersebut antara lain teori one-layer systems, two-layers systems dan three-layers systems dengan data yang dianalisis berupa tebal perkerasan dan jenis material perkerasan jalan.Berdasarkan penelitian ini, adapun nilai dari regangan yang diperoleh dengan teori one-layer system di beberapa data jalan yang ditinjau, antara lain 533.8658 mikrostrain, 361.3456 mikrostrain, 1577.987601 mikrostrain, 618.012 mikrostrain dan 140.3075 mikrostrain. Untuk penelitian dengan two-layers system diperoleh hasil yaitu 1116.2920 mikrostrain, 544.322 mikrostrain, 1448.0839 mikrostrain, 734.1844 mikrostrain dan 738.7226 mikrostrain. Untuk penelitian dengan three-layers system diperoleh hasil antara lain 72.20275278; 70.80346908; 192.9638366; 123.1150377 dan 391.8845636 mikrostrain. Hasil dengan perhitungan one-layer system sangat besar dikarenakan nilai modulus lapisan dari subgrade tidak ditinjau dan hanya meninjau tebal perkerasan. Adapun untuk perhitungan dengan teori two-layers system, hasil yang diperoleh jauh lebih besar daripada one-layer system, yang disebabkan keterbatasan dari grafik untuk mencari nilai perbandingan antara ketebalan dan luas kontak yang besar. Perhitungan dengan teori three-layers system merupakan perhitungan regangan yang memiliki nilai jauh lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan teori one-layer system dan two-layer systems. Hal ini dikarenakan teori ini membagi lapisan perkerasan yang dihitung menjadi tiga buah lapisan, yang sesuai dengan sistem perkerasan lentur yang membagi lapisan perkerasan menjadi tiga buah lapisan, sehingga perhitungan ini merupakan perhitungan yang paling ideal karena mendekati kondisi aslinya.


Pavement icing during short-term night temperature drops leads to deterioration of highway performances and increase in road traffic accidents (RTA) in Krasnodar Krai. Peculiar features of temperature regime in road climatic zone (RCZ) IV are analyzed. The considered climatic zone is characterized by frequent zero crossing temperatures of air and road pavement, sharp short-term temperature drops in nighttime, frequent icing of road pavement. Main factors are highlighted which effect temperature regime of road structures. Mathematical model is presented for prediction of road pavement temperature based on weather forecasts. Possibility to decrease the volume of pavement icing by means of thermophysical properties of pavement layers is analyzed.

This paper presents results of exploration related to C2 and C6 crushed-stone-and-sand ready mixtures strengthened with limestone powder used in road pavement layers. Limestone powder is an industrial waste, which in Ararat region is in big volumes. The samples were taken composed of different fractions of crushed-stone and two types of sand produced from crushed basalt and crushed gravel, and were tested. The composition of ready mixtures meets the requirements of corresponding standard on grain size. To these mixtures limestone powder was added of the percentage range 0-30% of the mixture mass. The main purposes of experimental exploration were to determine the influence of different percentages of limestone powder on compression strength of crushed-stone-and-sand ready mixtures and optimal content of powder. The change of the influence grade was studied by applying different types of sands. Three cylindrical samples were made for each percentage of limestone powder according to a standard method. Compressive strengths of samples have been determined. It was concluded, that the applying limestone powder in C2 and C6 ready mixtures contributes to the cohesion of stone grains as well as to obtaining high indicators of compaction in road pavement layers. The received results allow to arrive to a conclusion that applying limestone powder according to the optimal range distinctly increases the strength characteristics of crushed-stone-sand ready mixtures which in tur contributes the effective implementation of the compacting process. Especially the influence grade is considerable in C6 ready mixtures containing a large amount of crushed stone, as well as in mixtures using sands with smaller fineness modulus.

In the article a review of sand equivalent evaluation methods of mineral mixtures for unbound road pavement layers was shown. Considering that there are various test methods and different evaluation criterions of these materials suitability, the need to develop unified sand equivalent method for aggregates and unbound mixtures in Poland was pointed. The objective method and limiting values of sand equivalent test were suggested. It was done based on laboratory examinations coupled with California bearing ratio tests.

Abstract This study first evaluated the engineering properties of lateritic soil samples from three selected locations in South Eastern Nigeria (Nawfia, Okpuno, and Ugwuoba). The effect of Oil Palm Fruit Fibre (OPFF) on the properties of these soil materials was investigated, with special emphasis on road construction applicability. The samples were subjected to different tests to ascertain their index properties. Varying proportions of OPFF from 0.5% to 3% were incorporated into the soil samples and the effects were observed based on compaction and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) results. The control samples without inclusion of OPFF achieved the highest Maximum Dry Densities (MDD), the MDDs reduced linearly as the OPFF content increased. Consequently, the CBR values decreased with increase in OPFF. The reduction in MDD for the Nawfia samples ranged from 0.29% to 5.31% as the OPFF increased from 0.5% to 3%. The MDD of the Okpuno sample also reduced within the range of 1.25% to 9.51% whereas the reduction for the Ugwuoba soil is within the range of 1.55% and 9.79%. With the inclusion of the OPFF, there was up to 75% to 83% drop in CBR values of the soil rendering them very unsuitable for pavement subgrade. It was concluded that the presence of fibre depreciated the engineering properties of the earth materials. Direct application of OPFF in any part of road pavement has been dissuaded.
