PAVEMENT DESIGN BASED ON ATJ 5/85 - MANUAL ON PAVEMENT DESIGN

Class of road = JKR R5

Initial ADT (RTV Year 2005 at Station CR501 along Federal Route 64 - nearest station) = 1,246 veh
Projected initial ADT (Year 2009) = 1,899 veh
Growth rate (RTV Year 2005 at Station CR806 along Federal Route 98 - nearest station*) = 11.11 %
Percentage of commercial vehicles = 49.8 %
Equivalence factor = 3
Design period = 10 year
Subgrade CBR = 5 %

* nearest station with positive growth.

COMPUTATION

1) Initial commercial traffic :

Vo = 1,899 x 0.5 x 49.8 / 100 x 365

= 172,593

2) Accumulated commercial traffic for 10 year design period :

Vc = 172,593 x {(( 1 + 0.1111 )^10 ) - 1 } / 0.1111

= 2,901,432

3) Total Equivalent Standard Axles :

ESA = 3 x 2,901,432
= 8,704,297
= 0.87 x 10^7 => TA = 28.2 cm

4) From Figure 2 (ATJ 5/85 - Manual on Pavement Design), for 'ESA' = 0.87 x 10^7, the required TA is 28.2cm.

Layer Material Coefficient Minimum Thickness

a1 Asphalt Concrete 1 11 cm

a2 Mechanically Stabilized Crushed Aggregate 0.32 48 cm

a3 Sand 0.23 10 cm

5) TA provided = 1.0 x 11 + 0.32 x 48 + 0.23 x 10

= 28.66 cm > 28.2 cm => O.K. !

6) Pavement structure : Wearing = 5 cm

(690mm thk) Binder = 6 cm
Crusher run = 48 cm
Sand = 10 cm
