• Description:
  MODULUS 5.0 is the latest version of the widely used flexible pavement back calculation system developed by the Texas Transportation Institute for the Texas DOT. This report is a User's Manual for MODULUS 5.0. The major additions to this system are routines to: 1. Estimate remaining structure life, and 2. Classify surface, base and subgrade layer strengths. Appendix A provides a discussion of the background to both of these routines. Appendix B provides guidelines on how to perform the back calculation and how to interpret the results. MODULUS 5.0 is now being implemented statewide as an integral part of TxDOT's pavement evaluation and design system.
