Reimagining unbound road pavement technology: Integrating testing, design, construction and performance in the post-digital era
The Industry 4.0 revolution signifies a pivotal transition in pavement technology,
emphasising the integration of digital and physical systems to revamp traditional, empirical-
based pavement design, construction, and maintenance practices. This shift promises
enhanced efficiency, sustainability, and a move towards integrated practices, highlighted by
adopting “Digital Twin” technology. Unlike traditional Building Information Modeling (BIM),
Digital Twin technology offers a real-time, dynamic representation of physical infrastructure …
