Tecnologías de Ensayos No Destructivos para Pavimentos II

En mi artículo anterior sobre tecnologías de ensayos no destructivos para pavimentos, destaqué la importancia de dichas tecnologías durante y después de la construcción de carreteras. Los ingenieros y técnicos confían más en los métodos de pruebas no destructivas (NDT, por sus siglas en inglés) para evaluar las características, la calidad y el rendimiento de […]

Non-Destructive Testing Technologies for Pavements II

This is a guest blog by Emil G. Bautista In my previous article on non-destructive testing (NDT) technologies for pavements, I highlighted the importance of such technologies during and after the construction of highways. Engineers and technicians are relying more on non-destructive test (NDT) methods to evaluate the characteristics, quality, and performance of the materials […]

Non-Destructive Testing Technologies for Pavements

This is a guest blog by Emil G. Bautista During and after the construction of highways, engineers and technicians rely on test method technologies to evaluate the characteristics, quality, and performance of the materials used in constructing the different layers of the pavement system. Some of these test methods need to collect cores or conduct […]

Tecnologías de Ensayos No Destructivos para Pavimentos

Durante y después de la construcción de carreteras, los ingenieros y técnicos confían en las tecnologías de métodos de prueba para evaluar las características, la calidad y el rendimiento de los materiales utilizados en la construcción de las diferentes capas del sistema de pavimento. Algunos de estos métodos de prueba necesitan recolectar testigos o realizar […]

Pavement Design and Accelerated Pavement Testing Research Facilities

This is a guest blog by Emil G. Bautista Traditionally, pavement engineers around the world, and mainly in the United States, design flexible and rigid pavements based on the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) method. This methodology was developed in the late 1950s in Ottawa, Illinois, under what was called then […]

Construcción de Proyectos de Investigación Para El 2022 en Mnroad

Durante casi 30 años, la extensa investigación realizada en MnROAD ha brindado una gran cantidad de beneficios al estado de Minnesota y otras agencias estatales. Aparte de estos cuantificables e invaluables beneficios, MnROAD tiene un gran impacto en la educación de los futuros ingenieros de pavimentos, aprendiendo qué no hacer y demostrando y destacando tecnologías […]

2022 MnROAD Construction Research Projects

This is a guest blog by Emil G. Bautista For almost 30 years, extensive research conducted at MnROAD has provided a vast number of benefits to the state of Minnesota and other state agencies. Aside from these quantifiable and invaluable benefits, MnROAD has had a great impact on educating future pavements engineers—learning what not to […]

Implementation of Research from Accelerated Pavement Testing Facilities

This is a guest blog by Emil G. Bautista In my last blog, I emphasized the importance of our highway system to our society in supporting the economy of countries around the world by continuously moving people and goods from one point to another, and the role that accelerated pavement testing (APT) facilities plays in […]
