Analysis of the occurrence and statistics of hazardous materials spill incidents along Texas highways and suggestions for mitigation of transport-related spills to receiving waters
"This report presents the results from a research on the occurrence and distribution of hazardous materials spills along Texas highway during the period of record from 2002-2006."
Capabilities/Limitations and recommendations for transporting Texas Department of Transportation's heavy-duty off-road construction and maintenance equipment fleet
"This report reviewed Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT) off-road, heavy-duty construction and maintenance equipment transport requirements and assessed TxDOT's current equipment transport knowledge base and practices."
Establish Effective Lower Bounds of Watershed Slope for Traditional Hydrologic Methods
This report identifies, from literature, data, modeling, and physical experiments, the dimensionless topographic slope where "low-slope" behavior should be assumed.
Evaluating existing culverts for load capacity allowing for soil structure interaction
Report on a study exploring culvert load-rating practices and procedures and finding ways to address the discrepancies between actual culvert performance and culvert analysis practices. The study used the Texas Department of Transportation's archive of culvert designs and inventory of 13,000 in-service reinforced concrete box culverts as the basis of their data.
Hydraulic capacity of type-h inlets: final report
Report on the performance of Type H Inlets as median drains for divided highways. The study consists of a literature review, experimental results of drain performance, and recommendations for estimation of Type H inlet performance.
Implementing the Ultra-High Pressure Water Cutter for Roadway Maintenance Application : Interim Report
This report has been designed to conduct a systematic evaluation of the ultra high pressure (UHP) water cutter as a pavement preservation tool for treatment of flushed, seal-coat surfaced pavements in Texas.
Laboratory Evaluation of Constructibility Issues with Surface Treatment Binder
This report discusses a study related to the use of emulsified asphalt (EA) as a binder for sealing roads after construction. Due to the number complex variables that affect EAs, this research is meant to help TxDOT personnel better predict which EA will be most effective and bond most quickly to allow roads to open for traffic.
Pavement Repair Guidelines for Longitudinal Joints
This report provides information on the implementations of Project 5-5444-01, "Pilot Implementation of Pavement Repair Guidelines for Longitudinal Cracks and joints," applies the lessons and recommendations from the previous Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) funded Center for Transportation Research (CTR) Research Project 0-5444, "Rehabilitation Procedures for Longitudinal Cracks and Joints Separation in Concrete Pavement,: which investigated the causes and repairs of longitudinal joint separations and faulting.
Use of dowel bars at longitudinal construction joints
Report discussing the primary objective of this research project, whcih was to develop rational guidelines on the use of dowel bars in longitudinal construction joints (LCJs) for better-performing concrete pavements without potential longitudinal cracking problems.
