Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields includes the contributions to the 10th International Conference on the Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields (BCRRA 2017, 28-30 June 2017, Athens, Greece). The papers cover aspects related to materials, laboratory testing, design, construction, maintenance and management systems of transport infrastructure, and focus on roads, railways and airfields. Additional aspects that concern new materials and characterization, alternative rehabilitation techniques, technological advances as well as pavement and railway track substructure sustainability are included. The contributions discuss new concepts and innovative solutions, and are concentrated but not limited on the following topics:
· Unbound aggregate materials and soil properties
· Bound materials characteritics, mechanical properties and testing
· Effect of traffic loading
· In-situ measurements techniques and monitoring
· Structural evaluation
· Pavement serviceability condition
· Rehabilitation and maintenance issues
· Geophysical assessment
· Stabilization and reinforcement
· Performance modeling
· Environmental challenges
· Life cycle assessment and sustainability
Bearing Capacity of Roads, Railways and Airfields is essential reading for academics and professionals involved or interested in transport infrastructure systems, in particular roads, railways and airfields.
Dr. Andreas Loizos holds a Diploma in Civil Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), a Dr.-Ing. Degree in Pavement Mechanics from the University of Hannover, Germany and a post-doctoral scholar of the German Research Council (DFG). He is Full Professor of Pavement Engineering at the School of Civil Engineering, Director of the Laboratory of Pavement Engineering and currently Head of the Department of Transportation Planning and Engineering of NTUA since 2006. His main interests include road and airfields pavement engineering, geophysical measurements in pavements, as well as aspects of railway track assessment.
