A compilation of selected contributions, the volume presents advanced
procedures for laboratory and field materials characterization,
including processed materials (non-conventional road construction
materials), novel tests for field stiffness evaluation, a pre-standard
for roller integrated continuous compaction control and new theories for
evaluation of the long term performance of materials, including
environmental aspects. These contributions represent the latest
developments relating to the design, construction, and long-term
performance of pavements, rail tracks, and earth structures, with
emphasis on the geotechnical and environmental background.
