Q2-a) Design a flexible pavement for average traffic of 1000 vehicles exceeding 3 tons loaded weight. The CBR of sub-grade is 4.0. The compacted sub-base of the poorly graded gravel layer has a CBR of 20. The base material has a CBR of 60. The pavement will have a bituminous surfacing. Sketch the cross-section of the designed pavement mentioning the thickness of each layer.
