Rutresistance Properties of a Largestone Flexible Base under Heavy Loads
The rutresistance properties of largestone flexible bases are studied
taking into consideration heavy loads and using computer simulation and numerous indoor tests. In computer simulations of largestone flexible bases
a calculation method was formulated for predicting asphalt pavement rut under dynamic loads. The method was based on the coupling of vehicle dynamic loads and pavement surface unevenness. The results of indoor testing and threedimensional numeric calculation under dynamic loads are confirmed by tracking observation results of a test road. We conclude that the rutresistance properties of largestone flexible base asphalt pavement built using lowgrade asphalt and low crush value high performance aggregate with reasonable gradation is no worse than that of the semirigid base asphalt pavement
and that ruts mainly are caused by the lateral shear.
