Question 1

What is axle load intensity?

  • The weight of the vehicle
  • The weight per axle
  • The total weight of the vehicle divided by the number of axles

💡 Hint: Focus on individual axles, not the entire vehicle.

Question 2

True or False: Increased repetition of loads can lead to increased pavement deterioration.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about wear and tear over time.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a hypothetical situation where a newly constructed interstate highway is experiencing excessive cracking due to frequent heavy truck traffic. Discuss design changes that would improve the pavement performance.

💡 Hint: Consider both structural and material improvements.

Question 2

Calculate the required thickness for a concrete pavement section expected to bear a daily traffic load comprising 200 heavy trucks with each truck weighing approximately 30 tons. Assume a standard pavement design guideline suggests a depth of 150 mm per 100 tons.

💡 Hint: Use the given standard to guide your calculations.
