(6 pts.) We are designing a flexible pavement
for a highway using the AASHTO method to
carry a design EASL of 2**106. It is estimates
that it takes about a week for water to
drained from within the pavement and the
pavement structure will be exposed to
moisture levels approaching saturation for
30% of the time. Use a reliability level of 99%,
a standard deviation of 0.49, a design
serviceability loss of 2.0, resilient modulus of
9000lbin2 for subgrade, resilient modulus of
450000lbin2 for asphalt concrete, CBR
value of 100 for base course, resilient
modulus of 31000lbin2 for base course, CBR
value of 22 for subbase course, resilient
modulus of 13500lbin2 for subbase course
to determine a suitable pavement structure.
