RILEM BITS&BOBS ON T&T  
 
 
Did you know that...?
 

... the force that tires of vehicles exert on the road has not only a vertical component, but also several horizontal components? These shear forces cause strain within the adhesive bridges between the stones in the asphalt leading to cracks, but self-healing pavement materials can be a solution to this problem.
