Aasho Road Test Findings Applied to Flexible Pavements in Virginia
The report results from Phase D of the cooperative HPR study, 'Pavement Design and Performance.' The object of this phase was to investigate the structural performance of about 20 satellite pavements on primary and interstate roads in the Piedmont region of Virginia and to tentatively evaluate the strength coefficients of the materials based on AASHO Road Test Results. The end purpose was to improve the design method presently used in Virginia. The independent variables evaluated are (1) the thicknesses of the layers of the pavement, (2) the strength coefficients of the materials in each layer of the pavement, (3) subgrade strength, and (4) traffic. The climatic conditions were treated as a constant. The dependent variables considered were (a) structural performance determined from the Benkelman beam rebound deflections measured during this investigation and the past deflection data that were available, and (b) quality performance based on serviceability index values obtained by the BPR-type roughometer.
