Soil-Structure Interaction Behavior of TDA in Road Structures

道路结构是发达国家的主要投资，包括大量的 支出、时间和努力。此外，环境开发和制造业也位居前列 新斯科舍省和加拿大联邦政府都是战略部门， 努力提供支持，以实现经济可持续性。拟议研究的主要目标是 更好地了解TDA的土-结构相互作用行为，并优化其北美设计 道路结构应用。预计这项研究将促进TDA在道路应用中的使用。的 拟议研究的结果将为新斯科舍省的经济带来附加值， 加拿大一般，因为它将创造新的可行的岩土工程应用使用轮胎废料。此外它 将感兴趣的岩土工程和结构工程顾问，市政工程师负责， 基础设施管理、运输部门和基础设施承包商。

Road structures represent a major investment for developed nations including significant amounts of expenditure, time and effort. In addition, environmental development and manufacturing are among the top strategic sectors that both the provincial government of Nova Scotia and the federal government of Canada are striving to support in order to achieve economic sustainability. The main goals of the proposed research are to better understand the soil-structure interaction behavior of TDA and to optimize its design for North American road structure applications. It anticipated that this research will boost the use of TDA in road applications. The results of the proposed research will present an added value to the Nova Scotia economy in particular and Canada in general as it will create new viable geotechnical application using tire waste materials. In addition it will be of interest to geotechnical and structural engineering consultants, municipal engineers responsible for infrastructure management, departments of transportation and infrastructure contractors.
