Performance period or life span of a flexible pavement is dependent upon the load carrying
capacity of its base and subbase layers. Pavement strength characteristics influenced by …

Coal mine overburden and thick inseam parting materials found in the lower Gondwana
basin are treated as mine wastes. Unused fly ash from coal-fired plants is another waste …

Quality classes of aggregate materials used in unbound base and subbase construction are
quite important for the longevity of highway pavements. Aggregate gradation, fines content …

A considerable amount of the globally produced ceramic goes to waste daily. Ceramic
wastes that are sent to the landfills have negative effects on soil, water, and the environment …

Resilient modulus (Mr) and permanent deformation (PD) characteristics of unbound
aggregates under repetitive traffic loads dictate the structural response and performance of …

Strength characteristics of unbound aggregate materials critically affect base and sub-base
thickness designs of construction working platforms and flexible pavements. Unsoaked …

This study investigates the permeability and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of base course
materials for flexible pavements, focusing on materials from local quarries in Querétaro and …

Several transportation agencies are moving towards implementation of the mechanistic-
empirical (ME) approach to design and analyze pavement structures. The pavement ME …

The main means of transportation are roads and they should be constructed in a way to be
applicable for a long time. Flexible pavements are the kind of pavements including 3 to 4 …

Abstract The new Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) uses the
subgrade resilient modulus (MR) as the key input parameter to represent the subgrade soil …
