Provides material on overlay design methodology and rehabilitation, including seven overlay procedures and associated options. Supersedes AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures 1986 edition of the same title.
Effective pavement design is one of the more important aspects of project design. The pavement is the portion of the highway which is most obvious to the motorist. The condition and adequacy of the highway is often judged by the smoothness or roughness of the pavement. Deficient pavement conditions can result in increased user costs and travel delays, braking and fuel consumption, vehicle maintenance repairs and probability of increased crashes.
This package includes a supplement to the AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures which includes alternative design procedures for use in place of or in conjunction with sections in the Guide describing Rigid Pavement Design and Rigid Pavement Joint Design
Table of contents AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures :
