Webinar
Pavement design is a critical aspect of transportation infrastructure, ensuring the durability, safety, and efficiency of road networks. This presentation introduces the fundamentals of pavement design in Australia, emphasising the structural composition and purpose of pavements in effectively distributing traffic loads. It highlights insights gained by Jeffrey during his International Knowledge Trips (IKT) in 2018 and 2023, where he explored innovative pavement design practices in Asia and the USA, focusing on sustainability and advanced preservation techniques.
This session will further examine the applications of sustainable pavement solutions presented by Dr Chamara Jayalath, who has extensive experience using geogrids for subgrade reinforcement. He will demonstrate how this technology improves pavement performance. The presentation aims to link global best practices with innovative research to inform the development of future-ready pavement solutions.
