Abstract:

Flexible pavement failure analysis procedures have been outlined in a series of reports prepared in project 214. Two examples of the use of these guidelines are presented in this report. The first example involves the premature failure of pavement in North Texas. A detailed laboratory and field-testing program was performed to identify the probable cause of the distress. The second example involves the establishment of rehabilitation alternatives for a nineteen-year-old pavement in west Texas. Life cycle cost and energy considerations are given together with field and laboratory data which support the selections of available rehabilitation alternatives.
