Experimental modelling for flexible pavement materials applying advanced laboratory tests to develop mechanistic-empirical design procedure

The fatigue performance of asphalt is addressed in the mechanistic-empirical pavement thickness design procedure used in Australia. The aim of this research program was to investigate the laboratory fatigue performance of a typical asphalt mix used in Western Australia as a structural layer, includi...

description The fatigue performance of asphalt is addressed in the mechanistic-empirical pavement thickness design procedure used in Australia. The aim of this research program was to investigate the laboratory fatigue performance of a typical asphalt mix used in Western Australia as a structural layer, including the development of new testing protocols, a new fatigue life prediction model, an accelerated testing approach, and master curves that can be input into the M-E design procedures used in Australia.
