Understanding Pavement Failures

When a pavement fails to reach its expected design life, how do we determine what went wrong? Road building materials, construction technology, and design methods have all improved over time. Yet we still see many roads in poor condition, and consistently hear that roads aren’t lasting as long as expected. Why is this?

In this session we’ll look at these causes of pavement failure and show how they can be addressed with new thinking and innovative materials. We think you’ll find something interesting that will help you make your pavements last longer.
