2007 Symposium on Cracking in Asphalt Pavements
WRI Pavement Performance Prediction Symposium - Cracking in Asphalt Pavements July 2007
Western Research Institute (WRI) organized and held a Symposium
on Cracking in Asphalt Pavements, which followed the 2007 Petersen
Asphalt Research Conference. The Symposium was sponsored by the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA).
