A pavement consists of 5 inches of asphalt underlain by a crushed stone based course. There is no sub base. The asphalt has an elastic modulus of 350,000 psi at room temperature and the base course has a CBR of 70. Determine the thickness of the crushed stone base needed to reach an SN of 2.85. Assume the base course is saturated 5% of the time and drains within a day.
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.
