Study Notes

Pavement Design Overview

Pavement design refers to the process of creating a structure that can withstand traffic loads and environmental conditions.

Types of Pavements

There are two main types of pavements: flexible pavements and rigid pavements.

Function of Pavement

The primary function of pavement is to distribute the load of vehicles and other external factors evenly to the underlying soil or subgrade.

Flexible Pavement Characteristics

Flexible pavements maintain intimate contact with the subgrade, allowing for flexibility and deformation under load.

Pavement Composition

A pavement typically consists of multiple layers, including the surface course, base course, subbase, and subgrade.
