Improving pavement performance has been a primary goal of the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) since its founding in 1950. And we’re not done yet. The latest innovation is a mechanistic method of simulating pavement behavior and predicting pavement damage that can help produce longer-lasting, distress-resistant pavements. “There has been a continuing effort to replace empirical [...]

TTI Updates Pavement Design Software One of the best parts of a software upgrade is seeing the new features. Releasing next-generation software often requires a much-needed modernization of the hardware. Sometimes, though, it’s the other way around. Texas’ roadways — the state’s biggest collection of hardware —are being modernized, and that’s required the updating of [...]
