The objective is to determine the type and Magnitude of Challenges faced while clearing rural roadways of snow and ice during winter.
The objectives of this synthesis are to report how airports chemically treat their airfield pavements to mitigate snow and ice, and what chemicals are used; to review damage reported to aircraft components and airfield infrastructure in association with the use of traditional or modern pavement deicing products (PDPs); and to identify critical knowledge gaps on these subjects.
Evaluation the effective of the #SAFE system, a cellular based Advanced Transportation Weather Information System (ATWIS) technology.
To investigate the applicability of Computed Tomography (CT) technology in the study of highway icing.
The objective of the proposed research is to develop and/or identify a series of standard laboratory testing procedures and ranges that can be used to evaluate the performance of deicing chemicals, additives and mixtures used on roadways and other transportation facilities.
Caltrans Roadway Weather Information Systems (RWIS) devices are installed at critical areas throughout the state where atmospheric and pavement data could be used for maintenance and transportation management. An assessment of their use and research of their effectiveness is needed to improve the use of existing devices and research the communications systems that prohibit open data transfer between the devices.
The purpose of this project is to conduct a laboratory investigation of the impact of deicers on two key performance components of concrete pavement materials.
The objective of the project is to design and develop an autonomous, in situ, self-sustained water quality monitoring system for safe, reliable, timely, and efficient measurements of water samples near highways to assess impacts of highway construction and operations.
To develop a comprehensive document for the management of winter road traction materials on Montana highways so that the impacts on the adjacent aquatic resources from such materials will be minimized.
Evaluate the effect of chloride-based deicers on reinforced concrete structures, such as roadways and bridges, operated by the Washington State Department of Transportation; and to determine whether or not reducing deicer corrosiveness helps preserve the transportation infrastructure.
