Response and Performance of Contingency Airfield Pavements Containing Stabilized Material Layers

Abstract

dc:description

The mechanistic approach for the design and evaluation of Contingency Airfield Pavements (CAPs) containing stabilized material layers was validated. CAPs are inexpensive pavements built in peacetime and available immediately after an attack for limited aircraft operations. The mechanistic approach was validated by relating predicted first pass structural response parameters (stress and strain) to observed field performance.
