TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 720: Estimating the Effects of Pavement Condition on Vehicle Operating Costs presents models for estimating the effects of pavement condition on vehicle operating costs.
The models address fuel consumption, tire wear, and repair and maintenance costs and are presented as computational software that is included in the print version of the report in a CD-ROM format. The CD-ROM is also available for download from TRB’s website as an ISO image. Links to the ISO image and instructions for burning a CD-ROM from an ISO image are provided below.
Appendixes A through D to the report provide further elaboration on the work performed in the project that developed NCHRP Report 720. The appendixes, which were not included with the print version of the report, are only available for download through the link below.
• Appendix A: Fuel Consumption Models,
• Appendix B: Tire Wear Models,
• Appendix C: Repair and Maintenance Models, and
• Appendix D: An Overview of Emerging Technologies.

Guidelines for Analysis Methods and Construction Engineering of Curved and Skewed Steel Girder Bridges
Author: Donald W. White | Size: 19.06 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Transportation Research Board | Year: 2012 | pages: 185 | ISBN: 978-0-309-25839-5
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 725: Guidelines for Analysis Methods and Construction Engineering of Curved and Skewed Steel Girder Bridges offers guidance on the appropriate level of analysis needed to determine the constructability and constructed geometry of curved and skewed steel girder bridges.
When appropriate in lieu of a 3D analysis, the guidelines also introduce improvements to 1D and 2D analyses that require little additional computational costs.
Appendixes C to K for NCHRP Report 725 are availble only in electronic format. A listing of those Appendixes and links to them are below:
• APPENDIX C—Evaluation of Analytical Methods for Construction Engineering of Curved and Skewed Steel Girder Bridges
• APPENDIX D—Benchmark Problems
• APPENDIX E—Executive Summaries of Study Bridges
• APPENDIX F—Early Correspondence with Owners and Agencies
• APPENDIX G—Owner/Agency Policies and Procedures
• APPENDIX H—Design Criteria for New Bridge Designs
• APPENDIX I—Extended Summaries of Study Bridges
• APPENDIX J—Bridge Drawings
• APPENDIX K—Organization of Electronic Data

A Guidebook for Nighttime Construction: Impacts on Safety, Quality, and Productivity
Author: Jennifer S. Shane Iowa State Universi ty/Institute for Transportation Ames, IA | Size: 5.32 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Original preprint | Publisher: Transportation Research Board | Year: 2012 | pages: 122 | ISBN: 978-0-309-25847-0
TRB’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 726: A Guidebook for Nighttime Construction: Impacts on Safety, Quality, and Productivity provides suggested guidance on the conduct of nighttime highway construction and maintenance operations.
These guidelines are based on best practices and strategies for nighttime operations that relate to the safety of workers and the traveling public as well as the quality of the as-built facility. The guide also addresses work-zone risk analysis planning and implementation, construction nuisances to both neighbors and workers, and work-zone illumination methods.

I'm not so experienced in capturing those kind of videos and I really don't want to miss this. I'll try to watch it live as scheduled but it would be nice to have this video saved on personal hard drive.
The video will be shown twice, on October 24, 6pm and October 25, 12pm Central Daylight Time (Chicago, GMT-05:00)
