INTRODUCTION:
NYSDOT uses a modified version of the AASHTO’s 1993 Guide for the Design of Pavement Structure
Features include Thickness design procedure for pavements 50-year design life Permeable base layer for drainage Edge drains or daylight Full-depth shoulders

RIGID PAVT. (PCC)
Used for High volume traffic lanes Freeway-to-freeway connections Exit ramps Advantages Durability Long service life Withstands repeated flooding and subsurface water w/o deterioration DisAdvantages May lose original nonskid surface Must have even subgrade/uniform settling Joints
Reinforced Contraction joints (50-100ft) Epoxy-coated steel to prevent corrosion Unreinforced Contraction joints (15-30x pavt thickness)

FLEXIBLE PAVT. (HMA)
Used for Traffic and auxiliary lanes Ramps, parking areas, frontage roads and shoulders Advantages Adjusts to limited amounts of differential settlement Easily repaired and overlaid Non-skid properties do not deteriorate
Disadvantages Loses flexibility/cohesion over time Must be resurface sooner than concrete Not usually chosen where water is expected
Minimum layer is usually 1-1/2” 1-1/2” top course 1-1/2” binder course Remaining thickness is base course

PERPETUAL PAVEMENT
Introduced in 2003 by the National Center for Asphalt Technology and the Asphalt Pavement Alliance
HMA pavement designed to last 50 years or more without major structural rehabilitation or reconstruction

CARBON FOOTPRINT OF HMA AND PCC PAVEMENTS
http://asphaltroads.org/images/documents/carbon_footprint_web.pdf
![Page 13: P AVEMENT T HICKNESS D ESIGN CTC 440. O BJECTIVES Know how to determine the thickness of flexible/rigid pavements](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649ccf5503460f9499b97f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
WHY THE DIFFERENCE
Carbon is sequestered in the HMA pavement
CO2 is released when producing portland cement via kiln; limestone disassociation produces CO2

BASIS FOR THICKNESS DESIGN Axle loading from truck traffic An 80kN axle load (18-kip axle load in
English units) is standard loading. All traffic is converted into the number of 80-kN passes that would cause the same structural damage
The converted # is referred to as the 80kN ESAL (Equivalent Single Axle Loads)
The effect of passenger cars, pickups, 2-axle trucks w/ single rear tires and buses (FHWA vehicle classes 1-4) are not even considered

RIGID PAVEMENTS-ESAL
Modified AASHTO equation is used Modified because NYSDOT experience is that
pavements in NYS last longer than would be predicted from the original equation
Other method Fatigue Strength
