Flexible Pavement Design System FPS 19W: User's Manual, October 2001
FPS 19W is the approved flexible pavement thickness design system used by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Project 0-1869 made several enhancements to this system, including: Transferring the system to the Windows platform, automating the Texas Triaxial system to provide a thickness checking system, incorporating stress and strain computational subsystem so that classical fatigue and rutting lives can be estimated for the designed pavement, and incorporating an extensive on-line help system. In this project the models within FPS 19W were further calibrated. New approaches were also incorporated for handling designs on pavements with very thick flexible bases.
