    A flexible pavement is to be designed to last 10 years. The initial PSI is 4.2 and the TSI (the final PSI) is determined to be 2.5. The subgrade has a soil resilient modulus of 15,000 lb/in2 . Reliability is 95% with an overall standard deviation of 0.35. For design, the daily car, pickup truck and light van traffic is 40,000 and the daily truck traffic consists of 1500 passes of single-unit trucks with two single axles and 325 passes...

  • rigid and flexible pavement

    A rigid pavement is on a highway with two lanesin one direction, and the pavement is conservativelydesigned. The pavement has an 11-inch slab with amodulus of elasticity of 5,000,000 lb/in2 and a concretemodulus of rupture of 700 lb/in2, and it is on a soil witha CBR of 25. The design drainage coefficient is 1.0, theoverall standard deviation is 0.3, and the load transfercoefficient is 3.0. The pavement was designed to last 20years (initial PSI of 4.7 and a final PSI...

    A flexible pavement is designed with 4 inches of sand-mix asphalt wearing surface, 6 inches of dense-graded crushed stone base, and 8 inches of crushed stone subbase. All drainage coefficients are 1.0. The initial PSI is 4.5, the TSI is 2.5, the soil resilient modulus is 12,000 lb/in2, reliability is 90%, the overall standard deviation is 0.4, and the design life is 15 years. A design mistake was made that ignored 100 daily passes of trucks with 22-kip single and...
