Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Submissions are sought for the upcoming Special Issue titled “Advancements in Materials for Bridge Deck Pavement Construction and Rehabilitation,” focusing on innovative solutions for the unique challenges faced by bridge deck pavements. These pavements, essential for structural integrity and safety, especially in long-span bridges, are exposed to distinctive stress distributions that demand enhanced durability and performance through novel materials and advanced techniques.
This issue aims to feature original research, technical insights, and case studies in areas such as durable paving materials, interlayer bonding advancements, and state-of-the-art maintenance methods. Rigorous peer review will ensure the publication of high-quality contributions, aimed at enriching the bridge construction and maintenance community’s knowledge and practices.
