A new tunnel formwork system from Pilosio reduces the time needed for assembly. Made from standard components, this can be used for a wide range of geometries.
With the asphalt paving segment split broadly into two methods, American or European,. it is no surprise that manufacturers. from these countries have dominated the market for some years. An interesting development in recent times has been seen with various European firms developing asphalt pavers to suit North American needs, including BOMAG, Dynapac and Vögele. Caterpillar and Volvo by comparison both offer both European and US-style pavers, with separate model ranges that have been developed over many ye
Alternative fuel and automated vehicle issues occupied minds at PIARC’s first international road tunnel safety conference. David Arminas reports from Lyon
More than ever, tunnel management must done in a wholistic fashion, said Andre Broto, president of PIARC, the World Road Association, based in Paris. With those sentiments, Broto kicked off PIARC’s first International Conference on Tunnel Operations and Safety.
One of the first speakers, Sandrine Bernabei Chinzi, head of transport infrastructure at Fr
Accurate pavement profiling can be achieved with the new Selcom RoLine 1130 laser sensor from Canadian firm LMI Technologies. It uses laser line sensing for accurate profiling of all pavement geometries on high-speed profilers at any vehicle speed and the unit is said to suit pavement profiling of both concrete and asphalt surfaces on roads and bridges.
