Challenges of placing and maintaining IPT Pads in Transportation Pavements
Transportation Pavements especially in sparsely populated countries like New Zealand and many Southern hemisphere countries have traditionally relied upon low cost pavements constructed largely from unbound granular aggregates with thin bituminous surfacings. Placing foreign bodies (IPT pads or strips) with sensitive electrical and electronic equipment into these pavements raises significant challenges that need careful consideration in each of the planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance life cycle phases of the pavement asset. The issues of constructing economic electric roadways are complex and challenge traditional pavement engineering principles and solutions. This panel discussion will raise, question and discuss the many issues that require modified and/or new and novel material and construction solutions for the implementation of electric roadways.
