Pavement Section

Section 11 9 mechanistic empirical pavement design.

Pavement section. For rigid pavements the initial pavement structure shall be designed and analyzed for a performance period of. The procedures in this chapter are inappropriate for non state agency pavements and or parking lots. A rigid pavement has a very high stiffness and distributes loads over a relatively wide.

Function of sub base in road cross section. Flexible pavements are so named because the total pavement structure deflects or flexes under loading. Pavement detail cross section.

Hma pavements are flexible pavements. Section 11 7 pavement preservation. A flexible pavement structure is typically composed of several layers of material each of which receives the loads from the above layer spreads them out then passes them on to the layer below.

Thus the further down in the pavement structure a. It acts as a working plate form for the construction of upper pavement layers. The pavement design procedures outlined in this chapter are for pavements on the state system only.

11 7 2 field reconnaissance and investigation. Our responsibilities include the pavement design analysis alternate pavement designs hma and concrete and life cycle pavement cost analysis for indot roadway projects. The image above illustrates the key components of pavement detail.

Acts as a drainage layer by protecting the sub grade from wetting up. 11 6 3 rehabilitation methods. Designs for local agencies should be developed using chapter 44 of the blrs.
