• Abstract:
  This design manual presents the results of a detailed study to identify and design flexible and composite pavement configurations which will perform as premium or "zero-maintenance" pavements. This manual includes identification and classification of the pavement materials, design procedures for the selection of pavement configurations using wheel loads and environmental factors, and material and construction specifications' necessary to achieve a "zero-maintenance" pavement. Six primary types of paving materials have been selected for use in this manual: 1) dense grade asphalt concrete, 2) portland cement concrete, 3) cement and asphalt stabilized materials, 4) granular and crushed aggregates, 5) li~ and 6) pozzolanic materials.
