STATE HIGHWAY PAVEMENT DESIGN AND REHABILITATION MANUAL

This manual is a revision and extension of national roads board highway standards s/4, pavement design ( 1974). At present it is in draft form only. It sets out the policies and principles to be adopted and the methods to be used for the design, construction and rehabilitation of surfaced roads and state highways of the following types: a) thin surfaced unbound granular pavement; b) thin surfaced pavement incorporating lime or cement modified materials; C) thin surfaced pavements incorporating a lime or cement treated subbase with a resilient modulus of less than 1000 mpa and some tensile capacity; d) thin surfaced pavements incorporating stiff lime or cement treated materials in base or subbase layers with a resilient modulus of around 7000 mpa; e) pavements incorporating structural asphaltic layers; and f) pavements with a rigid portland cement layer. This draft contains sections on the following topics: principles of pavement design; roading classification and serviceability limits; materials elasticity and strength characterization; assessment of traffic design; design methods for both flexible and concrete pavements; and pavement drainage and rehabilitation.
