Plz, solve this proboem. Transportation Engineering-2 Estimate what standard PG asphalt binder grade should be selected if the seven-day maximum pavement temperature has a mean of 680 C and a standard deviation of 2.50 C. The minimum pavement temperature has a mean of -220 C and a standard deviation of 30 C. Use a Reliability level of 99 %.

By the Asphalt Institute method, determine the allowable ESAL for a 3.5-inch overlay on an asphalt pavement with a representative rebound deflection of 0.075 inches. E2 = (1.5x70x6.4)/0.062 = 10840 psi Deflection = 0.04621 ESAL = 347000
The traffic on the design lane of a proposed four-lane rural interstate highway consists of 40% trucks. If classification studies have shown that the truck factor can be taken as 0.45, design a suitable flexible pavement using the 1993 AASHTO procedure if the AADT on the design lane during the first year of operation is 1000, pi=4.2 and pt=2.5. Growth rate= 4% Design life= 20 years Reliabilitylevel= 90% Standard deviation= 0.45 The pavement will be exposed to moisture levels approaching saturation 20% of the time, and will take about one week for drainage of water. Effective CBR of the subgrade material is 7. CBR of the base and subbase are 70 and 22, respectively, and Mr for the asphalt mixture, 450kips/in2.

12. Refer to Figure II-1 attached. A flexible pavement is to be evaluated according to the AASHTO 1972 design guide. The existing pavement has a weighted structural number=3.4, a regional factor=2.0, and a soil support value=4.5. What would be the approximated number of daily equivalent 18-kip axles to be allowed on this road for a 20-year analysis period?a. 10b. 33c. 100d. 1490
The following figure shows concrete pavement with the layer thickness and elastic modulus as indicated. Assume modulus of rupture of 650 psi, load transfer coefficient of 3.2, serviceability loss from 4.5 to 2.5, and drainage coefficient of 0.9. The bedrock depth and loss of support is not considered for the subgrade. Use the design equation or monograph with 50% reliability to solve the following: 1) Determine the number of ESAL that the pavement can carry before failure. 2) If the daily traffic has 1080 single axles (20-kip), 400 single axles (24-kip), and 680 tandem axles (40-kip), and the annul traffic is the same over the design period, how many years would the concrete pavement last before failure? 8-inch Portland Cement Concrete Ec=4×106 psi 8-inch Granular Subbase Ec=30,000 psi Subgrade Mr = 5000 psi
