Verification of the dissipated energy based fatigue model using field data
… can be limited to the top layer in perpetual pavements through the use of a very thick surface layer or a binder-rich intermediate layer. To achieve this goal, tensile strains at the bottom of the top hot-mix asphalt (HMA) layer must be limited to below a certain value known as the fatigue …

Development and validation of a stress-based procedure for the design of military flexible pavements
… a new stress-based design procedure for military flexible airfield pavements. This proposed new procedure is based on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers California Bearing Ratio (CBR) design methodology. The CBR design methodology has its roots on a very simple, but still reasonable theoretical …

Performance of Silty Sands and their Use in Flexible Airfield Pavement Design
Traditionally, flexible pavement design relies on past experience and semi-empirical methods developed through a combination of element testing and modelling. Element testing in this area especially, has centred on the performance of clean sands. This is in conflict with actual practice where a …
