PAVEMENT DESIGN
NCHRP 1-26 Phase II Final Report
The new pavement will be built in the future, on subgrades often not yet exposed or accessible; using materials not yet manufactured from sources not yet identified; by a contractor who submitted the successful "low dollar" bid, employing unidentified personnel and procedures under climatic conditions that are frequently less than ideal.

AASHTO DESIGNConcrete Properties
Use average, in-field strength for design (not minimum specified)
If specify minimum flexural strength at 28-day of 550 psi & allow 10% of beams to fall below minimum:
STEP 1 Estimate SDEV: 9% for typical ready mix. SDEV = 550 * 0.09 = 50 psi STEP 2 S’c design = S’c minimum + z * SDEV S’c design = 550 + 1.282 * 50 S’c design = 614 psi

AASHTO DESIGN Subgrade Soil Relationships
MR = 1,500 * CBR MR = 1,000 + 500 * R
These relationships given in the guide between MR and CBR and R-values over estimates actual MR values.
Be careful when using the AASHTO Subgrade Soil Relationships

AASHTO DESIGN k-Value Determination
The relationships between k and MR (base - no base) give inconsistent results with high in-situ MR Values.
For Example, Assume MR = 12,000 psi with no-base k = MR /19.4 = 619 psi/in with 6” granular base k = 574 psi/in (from Fig 3.3) As the MR value increases, the difference becomes greater. Neither value is very realistic. Historical values are 150-250 psi/in.

AASHTO DESIGN Loss of Support
Reduces k-value due to expected erosion of subgrade. LOS = 0 models conditions at the AASHO road test. Upper 3 feet were required to be:
AASHO A-6 (clay) Group Index = 9-13 Plastic Index = 11-15 Liquid Limit 27-32 80-85% passed the #200 Sieve
![Page 22: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
AASHTO DESIGNSubgrade Strength
Use Loss of Support = 0 (otherwise your using a huge fudge factor)
All cracking of rigid pavements at the AASHO road test were preceded by the pumping of material from underneath the slab.
The primary mode of failure at the road test was loss of support in the poor clay soil.
Therefore, AASHTO design equations already account for support loss.
![Page 23: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
AASHTO DESIGNDrainage Coefficient
The subgrade soil at the AASHO road test was a very poorly draining clay soil.
Therefore the AASHTO design equations already account for a poor drainage condition. Modern open-graded bases and more free-draining soils are design options which can be modeled with Cd > 1.0
Use Drainage Coeff > 1.0 (otherwise using a huge fudge factor)

AASHTO DESIGNReliability
Another way to think about reliability is to consider that at 90% reliability, only 10% of the pavement will have “failed” by the end of the design period.
If you are comparing a new concrete section to a new asphalt section use the same reliability for each.
Make design evaluations at 50% reliability.
Never compare designs at different reliabilities (reliability = factor of safety)
![Page 26: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
AASTHO Design Procedure Evaluation - JPCP
• The 1986-93 Equation is an “unbiased” predictor, but it is not accurate – Pred/Act ranged from 0.1 to over 10
• If designed with a high reliability, it will yield a conservative design

PCAPAV DESIGN PROCEDURE
PCAPAV - a mechanistic thickness design procedure. Based on:
– Theoretical Studies – Model & Full-scale tests – Experimental test roads
• i.e. AASHO Road Test – Performance of normal
pavements
![Page 28: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
StreetPave Thickness Design Procedure
• Pavement design tool geared primarily for roads & streets
• Based on the PCA’s pavement thickness design methodology
• Assesses adequacy of concrete thickness using both fatigue and erosion criteria
![Page 29: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
StreetPave’s Origins
• PCA thickness design methodology for JPCP – first published in 1966
• used slab stress/fatigue asthe sole design criterion for determining thickness
– updated in 1984 • failure by erosion (pumping) • edge support
![Page 30: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
StreetPave’s Origins
• StreetPave – released in 2005 by ACPA – tailored for streets and roads – improvements included:
• enhanced concrete fatigue model w/reliability component
• ability to analyze tridem axles in the traffic spectrum
• new recommendations for dowel bars, joint spacing, subgrade/subbase moduli, etc.
• side-by-side design comparison to asphalt sections

Faulting – Erosion per Load Group
• Erosion damage (ED) for each load group is computed per Miner’s damage hypothesis:
where, n = number of load applications Ne = allowable
applications to erosion failure

Faulting – Power
• Rate or work or power:
where, δeq = equivalent corner deflection, in. k = composite k-value of subgrade/subbase • Idea is that, for a unit area, a thinner pavement
with a shorter deflection basin (e.g., smaller radius of relative stiffness) will receive a faster punch

Controlling Factors
• Fatigue usually controls design of light-traffic pavements – Single-axles usually cause more fatigue damage
• Erosion usually controls design of undoweled medium- and heavy-traffic pavements – Tandem and tridem axles usually cause more
erosion damage

M-E Design Basics
• Calculate critical pavement response (i.e., stresses, strains, and deflections) due to: – Traffic loading. – Environmental conditions.
• Accumulate damage over time.
• Mechanistically: • Empirically:• Relate damage over
time to pavement distresses through calibrated models, e.g.: – Cracking, Faulting,
Roughness in JPCP. – Punchouts, Crack Width,
Roughness in CRCP. • Accumulate damage
over time.

Repairs-Bonded Resurfacing of Asphalt or Composite Pavement

Milling: Bonded Resurfacingof Asphalt or Composite Pavements
The three main objectives of milling:
1. to remove significant surface distortions that contain soft asphalt material, resulting in an inadequate bonding surface
2. to reduce high spots to help ensure minimum resurfacing depth and reduce the quantity of concrete needed to fill low spots; and
3. to roughen a portion of the surface to enhance bond development between the new concrete overlay and the existing asphalt. (don’t leave a thin lift)
![Page 80: NWPMA 2017 Conference · 2017-10-18 · WinPAS The AASHO Road Test was conceived and sponsored by the American Association of State Highway Officials to study the performance of pavement](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042015/5e73da3373b71c0c016a10a8/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Milling: Bonded Resurfacingof Asphalt or Composite Pavements
• Complete removal of ruts is not needed when rutting in the existing asphalt pavement does not exceed 2”.
• Any ruts in the existing pavement are filled with concrete, resulting in a thicker concrete overlay above the ruts.
• A minimum of 3"–4" of asphalt should be left after milling because of the reliance on the asphalt pavement to carry a portion of the load.

Important Elements-Bonded Resurfacing of Asphalt/Composite Pavement
• Clean Surface/Bond is important for good performance
• Thin milling may be required to eliminate significant surface distortions of 2” or more and provide good bond.
• Leave at least 3” remaining asphalt after milling.
•Control surface temperature of existing asphalt to below 120ºF. •Try to keep joints out of wheel paths. •Curing should be timely and adequate. •Small joint spacing to minimize bonding shear stress
