Concept explainers

Design of pavements

Pavement is a structure that is made up of different layers such as sub-base course layer, base course layer, binder course, and a surface course formed with different materials such as gravel, above the subgrade soil constructed to act as a path or carriageway enabling the movement of vehicles. The surface of the pavement should possess characteristics such as adequate friction, light reflection, and drainage. The pavements are classified based on structural design into rigid pavements, flexible pavements, composite pavements, and unpaved pavements. The process of determining a suitable pavement type, its constituent layers, and its thickness is called pavement design.

A flexible pavement has a SN of 4 (all drainage coefficients are equal to 1.0). The initial PSI is 4.7 and the terminal serviceability is 2.5. The soil has a CBR of 9. The overall standard deviation is 0.40 and the reliability is 95%. The pavement is currently designed for 1800 equivalent 18-kip single-axle loads per day. If the number of 18-kip single-axle loads were to increase by 30%, by how many years would the pavement's design life be reduced? For SN, please round-off to the nearest whole number if necessary
A flexible pavement has a 210 mm hot-mix asphalt “HMA” wearing surface, a 300 mm base (MG-20), and a 500 mm subbase (MG-112). The pavement was designed with 95% reliability, an overall standard deviation So of 0.45, and a APSI of 1.75 (a TSI of 2.5). The drainage coefficient is 0.8 for the base and subbase. The materials properties are as follows: - = Resilient modulus of HMA 2 894 MPa (or 420 000 psi); Resilient modulus of base (MG-20) = 169 MPa (or 24 500 psi); Resilient modulus of subbase (MG-112) = 74 MPa (or 10 700 psi); Effective roadbed soil resilient modulus = 36 MPa (or 5 200 psi). How many 18-kip (80-KN) single-axle loads can be carried before the pavement reaches its TSI (terminal serviceability index).
A rigid pavement is designed with a 10-inch slab,an Ec of 6 million lb/in^2, a concrete modulus of rupture of 432 lb/in^2, a load transfer coefficient of 3.0, an initial PSI of 4.7, and a terminal serviceability index of 2.5.The overall standard deviation is 0.35, the modulus of subgrade reaction is 190 lb/in^3, and a reliability of 90%is used along with a drainage coefficient of 0.8. The pavement is designed assuming traffic is composed entirely of trucks (100 per day). Each truck has one 20-kip single axle and one 42-kip tandem axle (the effect of all other vehicles is ignored). A section of this road is to be replaced (due to different subgrade characteristics)with a flexible pavement having a structural number of 4 and is expected to last the same number of years as the rigid pavement. What is the assumed soil resilient modulus? (Assume all other factors are the same as for the rigid pavement.)

Assume the base course is saturated 5% of the time and drains within a day.
