Evaluation of Base Courses for Flexible Pavements
The purpose of this research is to analyze and evaluate the performance of base courses of flexible pavements in N. C. utilizing existing highways constructed to modern design standards. The analysis and evaluation included in this study have been confined to the Piedmont physiographic province which also includes a large triassic lowland. The following variables are being studied separately and for interaction for influence on the performance of base courses for flexible pavements: (1) The type of base course. (2) Base course strength. (3) Base course thickness. (4) Subgrade strength. (5) Traffic loading including the rate of load accumulation as well as the total number of loads. In addition to facilitating assessments of base course performance, the results of this research will be useful in the determination of pavement component strength coefficients. The coefficients will be compared with those established at the AASHO Road Test. (Author)
