Pavement Engineering

Geleon provides specialised pavement engineering, investigation, design and verification services in accordance with AUSTROADS, state and local government design procedures.

​

Our service areas encompass urban and rural road environments including highways, intersections, arterial roads, local government roads and car parking facilities.

Investigation

  • Geotechnical assessment and soil testing 

  • Non-destructive pavement testing

  • Subgrade evaluation and pavement profiling

  • Pavement falling weight deflectometer (FWD) testing

​

Pavement Design and Verification

  • Empirical and mechanistic design of pavements using CIRCLY software

  • Pavement rehabilitation and resurfacing treatments to increase the life of the existing pavement

  • Flexible pavements consisting of unbound granular material and bound layers for light and medium duty applications

  • Flexible composite, deep strength and full depth asphalt pavements for heavy duty applications using dense graded asphalt, open graded asphalt, stone mastic asphalt and high modulus asphalt (EME2)

  • Lightly bound and rigid pavements (concrete pavements)

  • Hot in-place asphalt recycling (HIPAR) treatments

  • Subgrade treatments and improved layers for soft or expansive subgrades including lime stabilisation, geotextile wrapped granular material, Category 1 or 2 heavily bound (cemented material) and lean-mix concrete treatments

  • Plant-mixed and insitu stabilised pavements using quicklime, hydrated lime, cement and foamed bitumen

  • Design using back analysed deflection data 

​

Road surfacing selection and design

  • Prime and initial seals using cutback bitumen and bitumen emulsion

  • Secondary sprayed seal treatments for urban and rural environments including single/single seals, double/double seals, strain alleviating membranes (SAM), and strain alleviating membrane interlayer (SAMI) seals

  • High performance sprayed seal treatments for heavy traffic loadings including high stress seals, extreme stress seals, fibre reinforced seals and geotextile reinforced seals

  • Sprayed seal corrective treatments to address surface stripping and flushing including dry matting

  • Surface enrichment and rejuvenation treatments to extend the life of existing bitumen surfacing

  • Selection of suitable binders including conventional bitumen, multigrade bitumen, polymer modified binder (PMB), crumb rubber and bitumen emulsion

  • Selection and design of sprayed seal treatments for heavy duty applications such as access roads to quarries and mining locations

  • Selection and design of precoated cover aggregates for various sprayed seal treatments
