A cement concrete pavement of a certain thickness laid over a sub grade has a radius of relative stiffness 85 cm. If the thickness of the pavement were to be doubled, what would be the percentage reduction in the flexural stress by the Westergaard's corner load formula under wheel load P. Given that the area of the tyre contact (assumed circular) is 1540 sq. Cm.

• Question 26 The maximum wheel load that the pavement could carry is 120 kN. If the contact radius of the wheel is assumed to be 250 mm, and subgrade bearing capacity is equivalent to 0.24 Megapascals, calculate the subgrade layer thickness of the flexible pavement in mm using the 45-deg cone pressure distribution method.
