The increase in world trade and the required extension and rehabilitation of port terminals to equip them for the 21st century necessitates pavement systems that are cost effective and durable, but that can allow the pavement to be used for different purposes as needs change. This paper examines the role of construction costs and the automated high tech installation processes of the interlocking concrete pavers. Also discussed is life cycle cost analysis of various intelocking concrete paver systems. The findings are based on new research and practical experience gained from recent and ongoing North American projects. |
