A data management tool highway officials and contractors use to optimise highway construction has just been re-released as a faster version with expanded capabilities. Veda 2.0 by specialty US highway engineering firm The 5943 Transtec Group (Transtec) is said to provide powerful data management and analysis for paving operations.

Funded by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), Veda is a free intelligent construction data management (ICDM) tool that displays, analyses, and reports data collected by intelligent compaction and PAVE-IR technologies during construction. Intelligent compaction tracks asphalt or soils compaction progress and PAVE-IR collects asphalt surface temperature during paving.

Veda 2.0 improvements are said to include easier data importing, faster display and analysis, improved design file compatibility, and the ability to handle larger jobs, multiple machines, and multiple compaction modes. Transtec claim that workers using Veda can expect to save more time and analyse data more effectively.

    Intelligent Compaction Measurement Values – ICMV – can be difficult to understand. What’s more, there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive documents explaining ICMV. For these reasons, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and pavement engineering firm Transtec Group have released a technical brief to demystify ICMV. ICMV is a generic term for advanced measurement systems instrumented on vibratory rollers as a key components of intelligent compaction (IC) systems. It is based on the acceleration

    The global economy is still suffering, and many believe investment in road and other infrastructure is the key to its revival Over the past 14 years in Italy, only 187km of new highways have been made, but, at the same time, the amount of vehicles using the country’s roads has grown by nearly 10 million. It is in this context of financial concern and growing burden on existing road infrastructure that the sixth edition of ASPHALTICA, the only European event exclusively dedicated to the world of asphalt, bit

    MOBA has developed a new temperature scanner system called the PAVE-IR, designed to help operators avoid laying incorrectly heated asphalt. From mixing plant to compaction, getting the temperature of asphalt right is critical. Cold asphalt can lead to road damage, which results in additional costs of up to 46% due shorter surface lifetimes. The new MOBA PAVE-IR aims for an optimum asphalt material mix and the best possible process flow says the manufacturer.

    Hatz Diesel will take the wraps off a new engine family at Bauma, with the launch of the H series, a 2.0–litre water-cooled engine family that features Bosch common rail fuel injection with pressures up to 1,800 bar. Producing 56kW (75hp) and 130Nm of torque, the engine meets European Stage IIIB emissions regulations and US Tier 4 Final standards. The engine, a first at this size for the company with liquid-cooling, uses exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) but does without
