Q6)(20 points) Six-lane rural interstate highway has a truck count of 578 per day(including two axle, four tire panel and pickup trucks) and a annual growth rate of 4%. The HMA will be laid on cement treated base course, and a sand-gravel subbase. The quality of drainage is considered fair. However, due to large amount of precipitation, more than 25% of time the pavement will be exposed to moisture levels roadbed compressive strength of cement treated base (a)7 days =500 psi and resilient modulus of HMA =430,000. Use the minimum thickness for HMA table below to determine the thickness of base and subbase course required. The analysis period =20 years. (Use R=90%,S0=0.35 and ????PSI=2).
