Abstract

Roads, together with social benefits, play an important role in contributing to economic development and growth in a community. For this reason, they play a vital role in national growth production. Although in the world its length is 16.3 mil. Km, depending on each country, the need for new construction and maintenance is always a must.
On the other hand, global changes pressure all sectors to operate within the sustainability framework, where the asphalt industry is not exempt, and decision-makers are issuing day-to-day regulations to protect the atmosphere and human health and relief for this reason. Under these conditions, the sections are searching for new techniques and materials, promoting conservation, indicating that by balancing between technical improvements and cost-effective environmental and human health care solutions. The value of the use of any "right," product, production, techniques, facility, the fund is becoming more and more important to each stakeholder in this regard.
First of all, the new technological advances in road pavements have been addressed in this study. Such advances were then analyzed in the sense of the approach to sustainability.

Karayollarında Yeni Teknolojik Gelişmeler Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme

Abstract

Yollar, sosyal faydalarla birlikte, bir toplumda ekonomik kalkınmaya ve büyümeye katkıda bulunmada önemli bir rol oynar. Bu nedenle, bir ülkenin gelişmesinde hayati rolü bulunmaktadır. Dünyada karayolu uzunluğu 16,3 mil Km olsa da, her ülkeye bağlı olarak, yeni inşaat ve bakım ihtiyacı her zaman bir zorunluluktur.
Öte yandan, küresel değişimler, asfalt endüstrisinin muaf olmadığı, sürdürülebilirlik çerçevesi içinde faaliyet göstermesi için tüm sektörleri baskı altında tutuyor. Bu nedenle karar vericiler atmosferi, insan sağlığını ve rahatlığını korumak için günlük düzenlemeler yapıyorlar. Bu koşullar altında, hükümetler ve akademisyenleri de içeren karayolu endüstrisinin tüm paydaşları, teknik iyileştirmeler ile düşük maliyetli, çevre ve insan sağlığı çözümleri arasındaki dengeyi sağlayarak, korumayı teşvik eden yeni teknikler ve materyaller aramaktadır. Herhangi bir "doğru" ürün, üretim, teknik, tesis, fon kullanımının değeri, bu bağlamda her paydaş için giderek daha önemli hale gelmektedir.
Bu çalışmada yol kaplamalarındaki yeni teknolojik gelişmeler dikkate alınarak, sürdürülebilirlik bakımından değerlendirilmiştir.
