Improving durability of asphalt mixtures
Improving durability of asphalt mixtures
The two objectives for this research were to review the 2016 asphalt mixture specifications to determine whether changes were warranted that could lead to more durable asphalt mixtures and, if so, adjust the specification accordingly and construct test sections to evaluate the revised specification., Scott Shuler., "December 2019.", Prepared in cooperation with the US Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration., Includes bibliographical references pages 11-12., Report No. CDOT-2019-06., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed February 2021)

In-situ monitoring of infiltration-induced instability of I-70 embankment west of the Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial tunnels, phase II
In-situ monitoring of infiltration-induced instability of I-70 embankment west of the Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial tunnels, phase II
Infiltration-induced landslides are common hazards to roads in Colorado. A new methodology that uses recent advances in unsaturated soil mechanics and hydrology was developed and tested. The approach consists of using soil suction and moisture content field information in the prediction of the likelihood of landslide movement. The testing ground was an active landslide on I-70 west of the Eisenhower/Johnson Memorial Tunnels. Results indicate that the unique hydrology of the site is a key component in its stability and considering the whole water basin and not just the failure area is important., Authors: Alexandra Wayllace, Ning Lu, Jonathan Godt., "December 2017.", Includes bibliographic references (pages 36-38), Report No. CDOT-2017-12, Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed August 2019)

Influence of the Mount Evans highway (SH 5) on alpine wetland hydrologic processes, permafrost, and vegetation, Colorado Rocky Mountains
Influence of the Mount Evans highway (SH 5) on alpine wetland hydrologic processes, permafrost, and vegetation, Colorado Rocky Mountains
Mount Evans Highway (SH 5) has been severely damaged by permafrost degradation and freeze-thaw processes. We assessed the effects of the current roadway configuration on the permafrost, hydrologic processes, vegetation, and soils of the Summit Lake Park wetland complex. We also reviewed and synthesized available literature to develop design recommendations for mitigating permafrost degradation, thaw-induced subsidence and frost damage, and hydrologic alterations to alpine wetlands. The existing roadway has profoundly altered permafrost conditions, hydrological processes, and wetland plant communities., Jeremy R. Shaw, David J.

Innovative and economical steel bridge design alternatives for Colorado
Innovative and economical steel bridge design alternatives for Colorado
The majority of Simple Made Continuous bridges currently in use are constructed with concrete diaphragms. This report presents the results of numerical analysis and laboratory testing of an alternative simple-made-continuous connection scheme that uses steel diaphragms in lieu of concrete diaphragms. A bridge using steel diaphragms was constructed by the Colorado Department of Transportation in 2005 serves as a basis for the research presented herein. Preliminary analysis discovered potential design flaws in the current bridge connection. This bridge should be inspected and retrofitted based on the results of the physical test. Steel diaphragms are a promising alternative for future SMC bridges and the design guidance provided in this report can be used to create better bridge designs., Robert Johnson, Rebecca Atadero., "December 2018.", Performing organization: Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Colorado State University., Includes bibliographical references (pages 84-88), Report No. CDOT-2018-21, Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed September 2019)

Internal curing of high performance concrete using lightweight aggregates and other techniques
Internal curing of high performance concrete using lightweight aggregates and other techniques
Internally cured concrete has been rapidly emerging over the last decade as an effective way to improve the performance of concrete. Internal curing (IC) holds promise for producing concrete with an increased resistance to early-age cracking and enhanced durability. It is a simple and effective way to cure concrete., Wesley A.
