FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT DESIGN MANUAL FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION AND PAVEMENT REHABILITATION

The objective of this document is to provide a pavement designer with sufficient information so that the necessary input data can be developed and proper engineering principles applied to design a new flexible pavement or develop a properly engineered rehabilitation project. The design manual addresses pavement details including defining the various pavement layers, the friction course policy, the field analysis necessary to properly develop a rehabilitation project, pavement milling, as well as describing the computations necessary for the pavement design process. The design procedures incorporated in this document are based on the 1972 AASHO Interim Guide for the Design of Pavement Structures, the 1986 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement Structures, and numerous NCHRP, TRB, and FHWA publications. The specifics addressed in this manual have been tailored to Florida conditions and materials.
