Structural design of flexible pavement. Part 3: Analysis of performance study data
Abstract
Traffic, pavement thickness and strength, pavement loss in serviceability, triaxial strength test results for subgrade soils, and spring loss in bearing capacity of pavements were resolved to terms analogous to those used for the AASHO road test. The AASHO terms used are structural number, PSI, soil support value, regional factor, and equivalent 18 kip axle loads. These elements were evaluated and design equations developed for Nebraska conditions.
