A large number of data collected from

TRAFFIC
Traffic Projection based on
(i) The past trends of traffic growth
(ii) Demand of traffic with respect to macro-economic
parameters (like GDP or SDP) and
(iii) expected demand due to specific developments
and land use changes likely to take place during
design life.
If the data for the annual growth rate of
commercial vehicles is not available
Or
if it is less than 5 per cent,
a growth rate of 5 per cent should be used
(IRC:SP:84-2009).

SUBGRADE
The select soil forming the subrade should have
a minimum CBR of 8 per cent for roads having
traffic of 450 commercial vehicles per day or
higher.

Strength parameter
The relevant design parameter for granular subbase is resilient modulus (MR), which is given by
the following equation:
MRgsb = 0.2*h0.45 * MR

Poissons ratio
Poissons ratio of granular bases and subbases is recommended as 0.35.

Design procedure
4) Calculate allowable tensile strain ( t) at
the bottom of bituminous layer using
equations in 6.1 or 6.2
5) Calculate allowable vertical strain ( v)
using equation 6.4 or 6.5
6) Using IITPAVE calculate the actual tensile
strain
and
