    Bituminous Mixtures and Pavements VIII contains 114 papers as presented at the 8th International Conference ‘Bituminous Mixtures and Pavements’ (8th ICONFBMP, 12-14 June 2024, Thessaloniki, Greece). The contributions reflect the research and practical experience of academics and practicing engineers from thirty-four (34) different countries, and cover a wide range of topics:

    Session I: Bitumen, Modified binders, Aggregates, and Subgrade

    Session II: Bituminous mixtures (Design, Construction, Testing, Performance)

    Session III: Pavements (Design, Construction, Maintenance, Sustainability, Energy and Environmental consideration)

    Session IV: Pavement management and Geosynthetics

    Session V: Pavement recycling

    Session VI: Pavement surface characteristics, Pavement performance monitoring, Safety

    Session VII: Biomaterials in pavement engineering

    Session VIII: Prediction models of pavement performance

    Bituminous Mixtures and Pavements VIII covers recent advances in highway materials technology and pavement engineering, and will be of interest to scientists and professionals involved or interested in these areas.

    The ICONFBMP-conferences have been organized every four years since 1992. This 8th conference was jointly organized by: Laboratory of Highway Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece; Built Environment Research Institute (BERI), University of Ulster, UK; University of Texas San Antonio (UTSA), USA; Laboratory for Advanced Construction Technology (LACT), Technological Institute of Iowa, USA; Technological University of Delft (TUDelft), The Netherlands, and University of Antwerp, (UA), Belgium.
