A flexible pavement is constructed with 225 mm (8.86 inches) wearing surface of hot-mix asphalt with high rut resistance, 275 mm (10.83 inches) of recycled mixture base (MR5 with emulsion) and 1075 mm (42.32 inches) of crushed stone (MG112) subbase. The subgrade has an effective roadbed soil resilient modulus of 20 MPa (2900 psi), and m2 and m3 are equal to 0.8 for the base and subbase. The overall standard deviation is 0.45, the initial PSI is 4.25 and the TSI (terminal serviceability index) is 2.5.

Given ESAL = 5 x 10 6, Pe = 2.5%, PP = 0.02%, PSI = 1 .7, and MR = 5000 psi, deter -mine the structural number SN of the mainline and shoulder pavement required for a reliabilityof 50% .

A flexible pavement is constructed with 4 inches of hot-mix asphalt wearing surface, 10 inches soil cement base and 10 inches crushed stone subbase. The subgrade has a soil resilient modulus of 12,000 Ib/in2, M2 = 1.5 and M3=1.127 for the materials of the pavement structure. The overall standard deviation is 0.5, the initial PSI = 5.0 and the terminal serviceability index (TSI) is 2.5. The daily traffic has 3000 cars, 1000 trucks and 500 trailers. The axle weights are: Cars: 20000 lb single axle 10000 lb single axle Trucks: 600O Ib single axle 18000 lb single axle Trailers: 8000 lb single axle 14000 lb tandem axle 40000 lb triple axle How long in years would the pavement last if R = 98% ?

A flexible pavement is constructed with 3 inches of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) wearing surface, 6 inches of emulsion/aggregate-bituminous base, and 6 inches of crushed stone subbase. The subgrade has a soil resilient modulus of 8,000 lb/in² , and M2 and M3 are equal to 1.0 for the materials in the pavement structure. The overall standard deviation is 0.5, the initial PSI is 4.5, and the TSI is 2.5. The daily traffic has 1080 20-kip single axles, 400 24-kip single axles, and 680 40-kip tandem axles. How many years would you estimate this pavement would last (how long before its PSI drops below a TSI of 2.5) if you wanted to be 90% confident that your estimate was not too high, and if you wanted to be 99% confident that your estimate was not too high?

4.13) A rigid pavement is being designed with the same parameters as used in Problem 4.5. The modulus of subgrade reaction is 300 1b/in? and the slab thickness is determined to be 8.5 inches. The load transfer coefficient is 3.0, the drainage coefficient is 1.0, and the modulus of elasticity is 4 million Ib/in?. What is the design modulus of rupture? (Assume that any parameters not given in this problem are the same as those given in Problem 4.5.) 4.5 has been added for reference.

An interstate highway pavement composed of asphalt surface course, cement treated base course and sand- gravel subbase course is to be designed for an ESAL of 1.2 x 10%. The quality of drainage is considered fair because water can be removed from the subbase within a week. However, there is a large amount of precipitation, so more than 25% of the time the pavement will be exposed to moisture levels approaching saturation. The materials properties are as follows: effective roadbed soil resilient modulus = 5500 psi, resilient modulus of subbase = 15000 psi, unconfined compressive strength of cement-treated base = 500 psi and resilient modulus of asphalt layer 4.3 x 10 psi. Determine the thicknesses of surface, base and subbase courses.

How many yearswould you estimate this pavement would last (how long before its PSI drops below aTSI of 2.5) if you wanted to be 90% confident that your estimate was not too high,and if you wanted to be 99% confident that your estimate was not too high?

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 of tractor semi-trailer trucks with single, tandem, and triple axles. The axle weights are: Cars, pickups, light vans = two 2 kip single axles Single-unit truck = 8 kip single axle and 24 kip single axle Tractor semi-trailer truck = 10 kip single axle, 18 kip tandem axle, and 42 kip triple axle. ● ● M₂ and M3 are equal to 1 for the materials in the pavement structure. Four inches of hot- mix asphalt (HMA) is to be used as the wearing surface and 10 inches of crushed stone as the subbase. Determine the thickness required for the base if soil cement is the…

A flexible pavement is designed to last 10 years to withstand truck traffic that consists only of trucks with two 18-kip single axles. The pavement is designed for a soil CBR of 10, an initial PSI of 5.0, a TSI of 2.5, an overall standard deviation of 0.40 and a reliability of 90%, and the structural number was determined to be 6.
