The world has seen a surge in rigorous study efforts on the progressive collapse of structures in the past few decades. These events have led to new standards and provisions in building codes of practice, many of which are still bei... Read More about Progressive collapse: Past, present, future and beyond.

Uni- and tri-axial tests and property characterization for thermomechanical effect on hydrated lime modified asphalt concrete (2024)
Journal Article
Al-Ashaibi, A., Wang, Y., Albayati, A., Weekes, L., & Haynes, J. (2024). Uni- and tri-axial tests and property characterization for thermomechanical effect on hydrated lime modified asphalt concrete. Construction and Building Materials, 418, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2024.135307

Permanent deformation, fatigue and thermal cracking are the three typical distresses of flexible pavement. Using hydrated lime (HL) into the conventional limestone mineral additive has been widely practiced, including in Europe, to improve the mechan...
