The primary objective of this research is to develop a rutting performance prediction model of flexible pavement. Extensive laboratory testings were conducted to achieve the objective. A new test method employing repetitive axial loading with confinement was also adopted to estimate the rutting performance of asphalt concrete in the research. The rutting prediction model employes a layer-strain theory. The required rutting coefficients for the prediction model were determined through the laboratory rutting characterizations of the asphalt concrete layer materials. Within the limits of this study, a laboratory rutting prediction model of flexible pavement using repetitive axial loading test was presented. It is noted that the developed rutting prediction model simulates propery the behaviors of flexible pavement layer materials.

재료시험의 주 목적은 작용되는 하중과 기후조건을 포함하여 현장조건과 가급적으로 유 사한 조건하에서 모사하는 것이다. 또한 시험법은 쉽고 저렴하며 시험을 수행하기 간단 하며 시험결과가 효율적 이어서 많은 기관에서 표준시험법으로 수용할 수 있어야한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 내용에 근거하여 새로운 시험법인 구속응력을 가진 반복 축 하중 시험이 아스팔트 콘크리트 혼합물의 소성변형 시험으로 개발되었다. 본 연구에서 제시 하는 소성변형 시험은 다양한 구조해석과 현장 데이터의 분석을 근거로 개발되었다. 본 아스팔트 콘크리트의 소성변형 시험법에서는 포장의 깊이에 따라 3가지 범주로 분류 하 였다. 각 범주마다 다른 온도와 수직응력을 적용하여 시험을 수행하였다.

The main objective of materials testing is to simulate in-situ field conditions as closely as possible, including loading conditions, climatic conditions, etc. Also, the test method should be easy, inexpensive, simple, and efficient to conduct to become an acceptable standard laboratory testing method for many agencies. Based on these reasons, a new test method employing repetitive axial loading with confinement was developed to evaluate the rutting(permanent deformation) of asphalt concrete. The new laboratory test protocol was developed based on the study of the various structural analysis and field data. This protocol divides asphalt layer(s) into three categories depending upon the depth. Different temperatures and vertical stress levels were used in these areas.

Mechanized timber harvesting operations often cause soil disturbance, such as compaction and rutting. The extent of soil disturbance is highly dependent on environmental factors and operation methods. As soil disturbance has a long-term impact on forest productivity, it is critical to assess its effects. The objective of this study was to investigate soil surface deformation caused by forest machinery traffic in a steep slope clear-cut area and to compare manual methods with remote sensing. Following the timber harvesting operation design, we established the experimental treatments representing the number and direction of forest machinery passes (1D, 1-downward; 1U, 1-upward; 3R, 3-round-trip; 5R, 5-round-trip). Soil rut depth and cross-section were manually measured using pinboard and estimated by mobile LiDAR system (MLS) and unmanned aerial vehicle structure from motion algorithm (UAV SfM). There was a significant difference in soil rut depth based on the number of passes (p = 0.00), while no significant difference based on the direction of passes. Rut depth in 1D (22.2cm) was significantly higher than 3R (15.7cm), with no significant differences among 1D, 1U (20.0cm), and 5R (19.6cm) or among 3R, 1U, and 5R. These findings suggest that most soil disturbance occurs during the initial passes of forest machinery. The comparison of pinboard and MLS data revealed a significant relationship (R2 = 0.74, slope = 1.00, p = 0.00). Comparing pinboard and UAV SfM data, we found that MLS is more accurate than UAV SfM in assessing soil surface deformation (R2 = 0.60, slope = 0.81, p = 0.00). The results reveal the need to establish optimized driving routes for forest machinery to minimize soil disturbance and suggest the potential of using MLS and UAV SfM for future soil disturbance assessments.

Field or laboratory wheel tracking tests have been employed for the evaluation of the rutting potential of asphalt paving mixtures. Compared to field tests, laboratory wheel tracking tests are much less expensive and more manageable for most road projects. However, most test laboratories are not equipped to perform such tests because there does not exist any standard test procedure, and the required equipment is rather expensive. Futhermore, the size of test specimens and the relatively large quantity of test mixture required present difficulties for laboratory specimen mixing and compaction. This paper describes a project conducted to study the feasibility of replacing wheel tracking testsby a repeated-load creep test for rutting potential evaluation. Comparisons were made between the results of the two tests for different test temperatures, loading speeds and applied pressures. Three types of asphalt mixtures were studied in the test program. Favorable conclusions concerning the use of the repeated-load test for rutting potential evaluation were drawn based on the findings of the experimental test results. The correlation between the two types of tests was found to be good for all threeasphalt mixtures. Adopting the repeated-load creep test would lead to cost savings since it employs standard test equipment already available in most laboratories. It would also result in substantial time savings due to the much smaller quantity of mix needed, and the ease in specimen preparation.

PURPOSES : In order to apply high-speed weigh-in-motion (HS WIM) systems to asphalt pavement, three high-durability asphalt concrete mixtures installed with a WIM epoxy are evaluated. METHODS : In this study, dynamic stability, number of loading repetitions to reach the rut depth of 1 mm, and rut depth measurements of three asphalt mixtures at $60^{\circ}C$ were compared using an Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA). Laboratory-fabricated material and field core samples were prepared and tested according to KS F2374. RESULTS : Through the laboratory tests, it was found that all three modified asphalt mixtures (stone-mastic, porous, and semi-rigid) with WIM epoxy showed favorable permanent deformation results and passed the dynamic stability criterion of 3000 loading repetitions per 1 mm. In addition, it was confirmed that the modified SMA mixtures cored from the field construction yields satisfactory rutting testing results using the APA. Finally, the epoxy used for the HS WIM installation shows good adhesion with the three asphalt mixtures and permanent deformation resistance.

아스팔트 포장에서의 골재분리(segregation)는 혼합물 내의 굵은골재와 잔골재가 고르게 분포하지 않은 결과이며, 균열, 레블링(raveling), 박리(stripping)와 같은 조기 파손을 야기한다. 그러나 소성변형에 대한 골재분리의 효과는 아직까지 제대로 규명되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서 수행된 실험 및 분석 결과, 아스팔트 포장의 소성변형은 혼합물의 골재분리보다는 혼합물 내의 골재 구조에 더 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 굵은골재의 체적이 증가함에 따라 혼합물의 소성변형 저항성은 증가하였다. 그러나 이러한 현상은 낮은 공극율을 갖는 혼합물에서는 잘 일치하였지만, 높은 공극율을 갖는 혼합물에서는 골재의 체적 증가 보다는 공극율 자체가 소성변형에 더 큰 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다. 즉, 공극율 10%를 기준으로, 이를 초과하는 혼합물은 굵은 골재의 체적이 큼에도 불구하고 소성변형 저항성은 크게 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

Segregation in asphalt pavements occurs as a result of the non-uniform distribution of coarse and fine aggregates and causes premature distresses, such as cracking, raveling, and stripping. The effect of segregation on rutting, however, has not been clearly identified. Experimental and analytical work performed in this study indicates that rutting performance is affected by segregation of mixtures. However, the aggregate structure of mixtures appears to be a more critical factor that determines the rutting performance, rather than the level of segregation. Based on the field mixtures evaluated, an increase of coarse aggregate volume in an asphalt mixture is an important factor that results in good rutting performance. This effect holds true for mixtures with lower levels of air voids, but for mixtures with higher levels of air voids, the air voids effect becomes dominant, resulting in a reduction in rutting performance. An air void content of 10% appears to be a threshold that determines the rutting performance of Superpave mixtures. Once the air void content exceeds 10%, the rutting performance of Superpave mixtures decreases significantly, despite the coarse aggregate volume.

This paper will present a simple approach (or predicting layer deformation of unbound pavement materials with stress-dependent material properties. The approach is based on an uncoupled formulation in which the resilient and deformation response of unbound materials are considered separately. As a result, an uncoupled approach incorporating a resilient stiffness and Poisson's ratio model is able to simulate field measured deformation in pavement foundations. In addition, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to identify the significant factors in the stress-dependent modulus and Poison's ratio model. The predicted trends of deformation from this analysis are presented and discussed.

The objective of this research is to evaluate engineering properties of recycled aggregates, slag as coarse & fine aggregate and waste foundry sand(WFS) as fine aggregate, in hot mix asphalt(HMA). In this research, soundness, gradation and particle analysis, abrasion, specific gravity and absorption test were carried out. The optimum asphalt binder content(OAC) for various HMA combinations of recycled aggregate was determined by Marshall Mix Design. The ranges determined is between 7.2% and 7.5%. Indirect tensile test, resilient modulus test, creep test were carried out for characterization of rutting behavior of various combination of HMA. Judging from the limited tests, the HMA with recycled aggregates is not as good rutting resistance as the HMA with common aggregates. After finishing the Wheel tracking test, the application or feasibility for the use of recycled aggregate as asphalt paving material will be determined.

There are several major practical consequences of stress-dependent properties of unbound pavement foundations. Among those are the stress-dependent modulus and Poisson's ratio's that may change, the compressive stresses that are generated in materials under load, the stiffening and strengthening effect of repeated loading to progressively increase the unbound pavement materials resistance to permanent deformation. In order to study these, the algorithm for predicting deformations on conventional flexible pavements are proposed and the stress-dependent effects on layer deformation are presented in this paper by the developed stress-dependent finite element analysis program with the selected models.

최근 발전설비의 용접부에서 발생하는 사고 유형은 용접결함으로 인한 손상은 거의 발생하지 않고 있으나 용접 열영향부와 용접 재질의 물성이 부적절하여 발생하는 것이 대부분이다. 특히 잔류응력은 용접구조물의 파괴에 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러므로 용접부를 다량으로 포함하는 발전설비에서는 잔류응력의 분포와 크기가 정확하게 파악되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 발전설비에 사용되는 박판 및 후판의 용접배관의 잔류응력을 파괴적 방법인 톱 절단법과 비파괴적 방법인 연속압입시험법으로 측정한 후 비교하여 측정법의 적절성을 검토하고자 하였다.

It has been widely recognized that the residual stress of the weldment affect the integrity of steel structures and cause an initiation of crack in the welded regions. Since the power plants adopt a variety of welding processes, it is necessary to know the distribution and magnitude of residual stresses. This paper has attempted to investigate the validity of the saw cutting method and the indentation method to measure the residual stresses in the steel plates. The residual stresses in the specimens of hot reheater pipes, cold reheater pipes and feed water lines in power plants were determined by the saw cutting method and the indentation method. The data were compared and reviewed for the validity of the methods.
