Download or read book Mechanistic Evaluation and Calibration of the AASHTO Design Equations and Mechanistic Analysis of the SHRP Asphalt Surfaced Pavement Sections written by Gilbert Y. Baladi and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mechanistic evaluation of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) flexible design equations was conducted by using 243 artificial pavement sections with various layer properties, roadbed soil modulus, and traffic volumes. A mechanistic-based modification procedure of the effects of the AASHTO drainage coefficient is presented. A nomograph for estimating the effects of drainage coefficients on the expected life of the pavement structures is also presented and discussed. Finally, the results of the backcalculated layer moduli of some of the Strategic Highway Research Program asphalt surfaced General Pavement Studies sections are presented and the accuracy of the values briefly discussed.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the analysis conducted on relating pavement performance or response measures and design considerations to specific pavement layers utilizing data contained in the Long-Term Pavement Performance Program National Information Management System. The goal of this research activity was to enhance implementation and use of the 1993 AASHTO Design Guide through improved materials characterizations. Specifically, the focus of this research activity was to identify the differences that exist between laboratory measured and backcalculated resilient moduli; determine the applicability of the C values, drainage coefficients, and relative damage factors that are included in the Design Guide; and provide procedures to adequately consider the seasonal variation of material properties as related to flexible pavement designs. Based on these results, design pamphlets have been prepared in support of the AASHTO Design Guide. These design pamphlets are documented and included in other reports. The results reported here form the basis and background for those design pamphlets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides an overview of the first 5 years of the Strategic Highway Research Program Long-Term Pavement Performance (SHRP-LTPP) program. The background, LTPP history, activities and approaches, and decision-making processes of the program are detailed. Included are summaries of the studies initiated for general and specific pavement types, the characterization of pavement materials, monitoring activities, the LTPP database and Information Management System, data analysis, traffic data collection and analysis, as well as a summary of the contributions made by international participants. The general LTPP program is described and the expected results, products, and benefits are also outlined.

Download or read book Guide for the Local Calibration of the Mechanistic empirical Pavement Design Guide written by and published by AASHTO. This book was released on 2010 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide provides guidance to calibrate the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) software to local conditions, policies, and materials. It provides the highway community with a state-of-the-practice tool for the design of new and rehabilitated pavement structures, based on mechanistic-empirical (M-E) principles. The design procedure calculates pavement responses (stresses, strains, and deflections) and uses those responses to compute incremental damage over time. The procedure empirically relates the cumulative damage to observed pavement distresses.
