This book contains latest research studies regarding issues related to civil infrastructure such as pavement layers and material properties. It contains research data and conclusions that should lead to more resilient infrastructure design, maintenance and management. Civil engineering researchers and practitioners will gain valuable information from this material. Papers were selected from the 5th GeoChina International Conference on Civil Infrastructures Confronting Severe Weathers and Climate Changes: From Failure to Sustainability, held on July 23-25, 2018 in HangZhou, China.
