Research Results Digest 350 January 2011 INTRODUCTION Highway administrators, engineers, and researchers often face problems for which information already exists, either in docu- mented form or as undocumented experi- ence and practice. This information may be fragmented, scattered, and unevaluated. As a consequence, full knowledge of what has been learned about a problem may not be brought to bear on its solution. Costly research findings may go unused, valuable experience may be overlooked, and due consideration may not be given to recom- mended practices for solving or alleviating the problem. There is information on nearly every subject of concern to highway administra- tors and engineers. Much of it derives from research or from the work of practitioners faced with problems in their day-to-day work. To provide a systematic means for assembling and evaluating such useful information and making it available to the entire highway community, the American Association of State Highway and Trans- portation Officialsâthrough the mecha- nism of the National Cooperative Highway Research Programâauthorized the Trans- portation Research Board to undertake a continuing study. This study, NCHRP CONTINUING PROJECT TO SYNTHESIZE INFORMATION ON HIGHWAY PROBLEMS A staff digest of the progress and status of NCHRP Project 20-05, âSynthesis of Information Related to Highway Problems,â for which the Transportation Research Board is the agency conducting the research. Individual studies for the project are managed by Jon M. Williams, Director, Synthesis Studies, Donna L. Vlasak, Senior Program Officer, Gail R. Staba, Senior Program Officer, and Jo Allen Gause, Senior Program Officer, serving under the Studies and Special Programs Division of the Transportation Research Board, Stephen R. Godwin, Director. Senior Program Officer: Nanda Srinivasan nsrinivasan@nas.edu NATIONAL COOPERATIVE HIGHWAY RESEARCH PROGRAM Sponsored by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and the Federal Highway Administration Suggestions for synthesis topics may be sent to the NCHRP Manager at any time by contacting the Cooperative Research Programs Staff, Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, D.C., 20001. You can also submit your recommendation at: http://www.trb.org/ SynthesisPrograms/Public/Synthesis Program.aspx âSuggest an ACRP, NCHRP, or TCRP Synthesis Topic.â Topics suggested must be accompanied by a brief (one or two paragraphs) scope statement, including a discussion of the problem. A title (preferably 10 words or less) and the name and affiliation of the submitter are also necessary. Identifica- tion of information sources is appreciated. A committee meets once each year, usu- ally in the late spring, to make the final selections. To be considered at the next annual meeting, all submissions should be received by February 18, 2011. If a topic is not selected, it must be resubmitted the following year to be considered. Interested in writing a synthesis?

Project 20-05, âSynthesis of Information Related to Highway Problems,â searches out and synthesizes useful knowledge from all available sources and prepares concise, documented reports on specific topics. Reports from this endeavor constitute an NCHRP report series, Synthesis of Highway Practice. THE SYNTHESIS PROJECT This synthesis series reports on current knowledge and practice, in a compact format, without the detailed directions usually found in handbooks or design manuals. Each report in the series provides a com- pendium of the best knowledge available on those measures found to be most successful in resolving specific problems. To develop these syntheses in a comprehensive manner and to ensure inclusion of significant knowl- edge, TRB employs a consultant to gather and analyze available information from numerous sources, includ- ing state departments of transportation. A panel of ex- perts in the subject area is established to guide the con- sultants in organizing and evaluating the data collected on each topic and to review the synthesis report. For each topic the project objectives are (1) to locate and assemble documented information; (2) to learn what practice has been used for solving or al- leviating the problems; (3) to identify all ongoing re- search; (4) to learn what problems remain largely unsolved; (5) to organize, evaluate, and document the useful information that is acquired; and (6) to disseminate the synthesis information to all who might benefit from it. Each synthesis is an immediately useful docu- ment that records practices that were acceptable within the limitations of the knowledge available at the time of its preparation. New knowledge can be expected to be added to that which is now at hand and eventually the synthesis may need to be updated or redone. The readers and users of the syntheses are in the best position to know when this has occurred. Whenever you believe that a synthesis should be updated, it would be appreciated if you would contact TRB and propose a synthesis update by contacting the NCHRP Manager, Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington D.C. 20001. Studies in Progress and Planned for 2011 Work is currently under way on the topics listed in Table 1. Topics selected for the current program are listed in Table 2.

Selection of Topics NCHRP Project Committee SP20-05 meets each year to select topics for study using funds from the upcoming fiscal year. The membership of this com- mittee is given in Table 3. Current funding allows for initiation of about 12 syntheses per year. These, plus some alternate topics, are selected by the committee at its annual project meeting. The following factors are considered in the selec- tion process for synthesis topics: ⢠The topic should address a problem that is widespread enough to generate broad interest in the synthesis. ⢠The topic should be timely and critical with respect to safety, economic, or social impact. ⢠The topic is appropriate if current practice is nonuniform or inconsistent from agency to agency, or if the validity of some practices appears to be questionable. ⢠The quality and quantity of useful available information should indicate a need to organize 3 Table 2 SYNTHESIS TOPICS SELECTED FOR THE FY 2010 PROGRAM No. Title No. Title 42-01 Practices and Guidelines for the Incorporation and Use of Geotechnical Information in Design-Build Projects 42-02 The Use and Application of the Census Bureauâs Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) by States and Metropolitan Planning Organizations 42-03 Practice and Procedures for Site-Specific Evaluation of Earthquake Ground Motions 42-04 Recent Geometric Design Research for Improved Safety, Operations, and Maintenance 42-05 Long-term Performance of Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Walls 42-06 Performance-based Highway Maintenance and Operations Management 42-07 Waterproofing Membranes for Concrete Bridge Decks 42-08 Significant Findings from Full-Scale Accelerated Advanced Pavement Testing 42-09 Cost-Effective and Sustainable Road Slope Stabilization and Erosion Control 42-10 Extent of Highway Capacity Manual Use in Planning 42-11 Local Policies and Practices That Support Safe Pedestrian Environments 42-12 Practices to Manage Traffic Sign Retro- reflectivity Table 3 NCHRP PROJECT COMMITTEE SP20-5 Chairman Catherine Nelson Oregon Department of Transportation Kathleen S.

and compress that which has already been learned and written on the topic. ⢠The topic should not be one where ongoing research or other activities in progress might be expected to render the synthesis obsolete shortly after completion. Each year many more topics are suggested for the committeeâs consideration than can be programmed for study in Project 20-05. Nevertheless, the continued success of this project depends on a constant supply of worthy synthesis topics. The interest of those who have recommended topics is sincerely appreciated, and they are urged to continue. Candidate topics are suggested by members of the committee and by a variety of other sources, including state department of transportation personnel; FHWA, AASHTO, and TRB committees; and other practitioners and researchers. Available Publications The Syntheses of Highway Practice that have been completed under this project are listed in Table 4. Eight Research Results Digests on topics studied under the project are also listed. In addition, two unpublished reports are available. The unpub- lished reports are for information only, as they have not undergone the full review process of a published study. Copies of these Syntheses, Digests, and unpub- lished reports can be obtained from the publications office, Transportation Research Board, 500 Fifth Street, NW, Washington D.C. 20001; by calling (202) 334-3213; and through the Internet at http:// www.trb.org/bookstore. All reports from No. 295 on (and some selected others) are available as online publications (http://www.trb.org/news/blurb_browse. asp?id=5 âCooperative Research Programsâ). Index of Topic Subjects Table 5 is an index to published syntheses, un- published studies, and digests and topics in production. Conduct of the Studies Following the project committeeâs selection of topics, studies are initiated in the order of priority as- signed by the committee. A panel consisting of prac- titioners and researchers is formed for each topic. At its first meeting, this topic panel thoroughly dis- cusses the topic, refines the scope, suggests sources of information, and identifies and discusses poten- tial topic consultants. Following this meeting, a consultant is hired to gather information on the topic, synthesize it, and draft a report. Typically, the agreement covers a pe- riod of 12â15 months. Information gathering and preparation of the first draft of the synthesis report takes about 8 months. This draft is reviewed by the topic panel with the consultant, often at the second panel meeting. A revised draft is then prepared by the consultant. Subsequent drafts and meetings are scheduled, if needed, although this rarely occurs. After the staff is substantially satisfied with the report, a final draft is sent to members of the topic panel for their last chance to review the report and then the NCHRP Project Committee SP20-05 for final approval. The report is subsequently published as an NCHRP Synthesis of Highway Practice. 4 Table 4 COMPLETED SYNTHESES No. Title, Pages, Price No. Title, Pages, Price 1.
