of a flexible pavement using a dual wheel load of 4085 kg and 5.6 kg/cm2 pressure.
Selected Points 1
8
Deflection (mm) 1.32 1.35 1.60 1.45 1.40 1.52 1.55 1.65 1.61 1.43
Determine the thickness of bituminous overlay using the following data:
1. Present Traffic = 1500 cvpd
2. Pavement temperature
= 30°C
3. Correction factor for moisture = 1.3
4. Annual rate growth of traffic = 7.5%
