' Pavements occupy valuable real estate, so there is a need to move beyond designing pavements for their traditional
purpose of carrying traffic loadings. Pavements can serve as an integrated part of stormwater quality and flood control
management systems and as sources of energy. Additionally, heavier electric vehicles in the short term—and
connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) in the long term—present additional needs and opportunities for advancing
pavement design and construction. This workshop will present case studies of projects that have used pavements as
an integrated part of bigger systems and provide feedback to CAVs or that allow for real -time sensing applications.'

' Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is a highly flowable, nonsegregating concrete that is placed without any mechanical
consolidation. SCC can fill heavily congested or irregularly shaped members more easily than conventional-slump
concrete while providing improved in-place quality and superior surface finish. The use of SCC also may decrease
construction costs because of reduced labor requirements during construction. This workshop will cover the following
SCC-related topics: 1) mixture proportioning, 2) fresh properties, 3) mechanical properties, 4) time-dependent
deformations, 5) construction aspects, 6) flexural and shear behavior, 7) bond behavior, 8) prestress losses, and 9) the
structural behavior of real-world elements made with SCC.'

The resiliency of transportation infrastructure will be enhanced by better moisture measurement near pavements and
structures because moisture is critical to properly compact geomaterials and to properly assess the stability of slopes
and other geotechnical structures. New technologies are available and this workshop will share the current state of
knowledge concerning moisture measurement. Field tests and best practices for effectively characterizing unsaturated
geomaterials will be summarized. Case studies of embankment and pavement design using unsaturated properties will
be included as will field measurement devices applicable to landslide warning systems, extreme weather induced slope
failures, and geotechnical asset management.
1026
It can be challenging for state agencies to obtain approval of marginal or reclaimed aggregates for construction and
rehabilitation of pavements, since many will not pass specifications intended to regulate supplies from rock quarries.
These alternative aggregates must be regulated better, both to beneficially consume materials that currently are wasted
or not exploited and to assure users of their adequate performance. This workshop will expose participants to the
current rationale behind criteria that successfully regulate the use of marginal aggregate sources in different state
agencies and will identify the areas of improvement in specifications. The workshop will comprise presentations, hands-
on evaluation, and roundtable discussions.

For decades, engineers and researchers have been monitoring the performance of the built environment on and in soil
and rock formations. These monitoring activities range from “low-tech” qualitative assessments using visual inspections
to “high-tech” methods using sophisticated instrumentation. Available technologies and techniques to accomplish this
work are advancing rapidly. For those that want to use more sophisticated methods, establishing the appropriate
sensors and associated data processing and analysis methodologies to achieve their specific program goals can be
daunting. '

Speed management is a core principle of Safe Systems—a holistic view of safety recognizing that road users will make
safety-critical errors, but that those events should not result in death. Although professionals consider environment,
vehicle, and road user factors to reduce speeding, knowledge about human factors is underutilized. Incorporating
human factors into speed management practices can reduce inherent road user misjudgment as well as the elevated
levels of kinetic energy created by speeding.

' Innovative services are offering travelers and consumers more options to access mobility , goods, and services. Two
complementary approaches to multimodal access are emerging. In North America, consumers are assigning economic
values to transportation services and making mobility decisions (e.g., the decision not to travel and instead have a
package delivered) based on cost, travel and wait time, number of connections, convenience, and other attributes –
referred to as Mobility on Demand (MOD). In Europe, services that allow travelers to sign up for mobility services in one
bundled service are gaining popularity – known as Mobility as a Service (MaaS). Both MOD and MaaS are about
providing travelers with more seamless travel options.'

Automated vehicle (AV) technologies, like most any technology, have the potential to help road safety professionals
meet their goals of reducing and traffic-related injuries and fatalities. AV technology is still in its infancy and therefore is
not standardized or well-understood by the public. The benefits of AVs can be accelerated by discourse around how AVs
can help address safety issues, and how policies, transparency, standards, and data sharing and partnerships are
aligned with safety needs and goals. In this workshop, panels will explore and document how to advance safe, effective
use of AVs that will serve the needs of all road users .

Truck platooning offers several reported benefits , such as lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, improved safety,
and efficient delivery of goods with less traffic congestion . As truck platooning increases and pavement loading
becomes more concentrated and frequent, greater demands will be placed on pavement systems. New pavement
design and evaluation methodologies will be needed to account for the increased loading frequencies and channelized
traffic. Collaboration with the connected and automated vehicle industry, as well as development of new pavement
design scenarios, may help minimize and perhaps decrease pavement damage by better managing truck-loading
scenarios. '

Transit is the safest mode of surface transportation . For the transit industry to realize meaningful improvements in
safety performance, it must be proactive in identifying and preventing potential accidents. The Federal Transit
Administration (FTA) has adopted Safety Management Systems (SMS) as the foundation of the Public Transportation
Safety Program. SMS is a proactive, data-driven approach to identifying, prioritizing, and managing safety risk. This
session, organized by FTA, will provide an overview of the Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan regulation and
examples for how agencies can meet the safety risk management (SRM) requirements. The session also will provide
an overview of FTA’s internal SRM process.
