EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF DIFFERENT PAVEMENT MATERIALS UNDER VARIOUS TRAFFIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Shivani Singh, Satish Parihar
Abstract
This paper Pavement material play a crucial role in ensuring the safety, durability, and sustainability of transportation infrastructure. However, the performance of pavement materials can vary significantly under different traffic and environmental conditions. This study evaluates the performance of different pavement materials, including asphalt concrete, Portland cement concrete, and composite pavements, under various traffic and environmental conditions. A comprehensive laboratory testing program was conducted to assess the mechanical properties, durability, and environmental sustainability of the pavement materials. The results show that asphalt concrete pavements exhibit superior performance under high-traffic conditions, while Portland cement concrete pavements demonstrate better durability under extreme environmental conditions. Composite pavements, on the other hand, offer a balance between mechanical performance and environmental sustainability. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for pavement engineers, policy-makers, and stakeholders in selecting the most suitable pavement material for specific traffic and environmental conditions.
