Research Center Reports 1Date : 04/15/2009 Fatigue Testing of Ring-Stiffened Traffic Signal Structures: FHWA-WY-08/05FBased upon in-service inspection of pole with traditional designs, Wyoming DOT’s inventory exhibited approximately a one-third cracking rate. A ring-stiffened connection is presently used. Sixteen fatigue tests were performed on twelve ring-stiffened cantilevered traffic signal pole connections to quantify the fatigue resistance. Two poles sizes we... Date : 04/28/2008 Highway Construction Related Business Impacts: Phase I and Phase II: FHWA-WY-04/01F and FHWA-WY-05/04FBusiness owners are typically quite concerned when a highway construction project is proposed near their businesses. Even though construction projects are only temporary situations, many business owners worry about the level of impact and the length and magnitude of the recovery period. Currently little information that quantifies the estimated bus... Date : 04/28/2008 Highway Construction Related Business Impacts: Phase III: FHWA-WY-08/01FHighway construction projects not only impact the traveling public, but can also impact businesses situated adjacent to the construction project. Even though construction projects are temporary situations, many businesses worry about the level of impact during construction and the length and magnitude of the associated recovery period. Highway cons... Date : 01/03/2008 Testing & Evaluation of Concrete Repair Materials for the Cheyenne Airport Taxiways: FHWA-WY-04-05FBecause of harsh winters, deteriorated concrete surfaces are common throughout Wyoming. Usually caused by cyclic freezing and thawing, deteriorated surfaces consist of scaling, spalling and cracking. Common methods of repair include thick concrete overlays and full-depth repairs. Both methods are costly and time consuming. Recently, a Wyoming compa... Date : 01/03/2008 Wyoming Freight Movement and Wind Vulnerability: FHWA-WY-05/06FThe movement of freight in the State of Wyoming is critical to Wyoming’s economy and the national economy. Wyoming’s transportation system provides a vital link for the movement of commodities across the United states in addition to providing access to the mineral, industrial and agricultural resources of the state. The intent of this research is t... Date : 01/07/2008 Wyoming Statwide Intelligent Transportation Systems Strategic Plan: FHWA-WY-01/02FWyoming Statewide Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Strategic Plan Wyoming Statewide ITS Architecture Date : 08/20/2008 Spartial and Temporal Characteristics at Moose Highway Crossings in the Buffalo Fork Valley, Wyoming: FHWA-WY-08/03FThe purpose of this study was to provide the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) and the Wyoming Game and Fish Department (WGFD) with information that could be used to assess the importance of habitat, landscape, and anthropogenic features that are essential determinants in evaluating moose crossing locations in northwest Wyoming. Approxim... Date : 03/24/2009 Practical Operational Implementation of Teton Pass Avalanche Monitoring Infrasound System: FHWA-WY-09/02FHighway snow avalanche forecasting programs typically rely on weather and field observations to make road closure and hazard evaluations. Recently, infrasonic avalanche monitoring technology has been developed for practical use near Teton Pass, WY to provide another tool for Wyoming State Highway 22 technicians in their operational forecasting and ... Date : 01/03/2008 Movement and Distribution Patterns of Pronghorn Antelope in Relation to Roads in Southwestern, WY: FHWA-WY-06/02FPronghorn antelope (Antilocapra americana) evolved in response to variable food sources and weather conditions on the open, western high plains. Survival of the species is dependent on their ability to move in response to fluctuations in food supplies and weather conditions. Using global positioning system (GPS) collars and geographic information s... Date : 05/07/2009 WYDOT Research CenterMichael J.
