A local City in the eastern United States is planning to reconstruct 1.5 miles of a two lane roadway (25’ wide) in an urban area. They have historically used standard pavement sections for different road classifications in the City. The Director of Public Works recently attended a Tensar Road Show event and understands that it may be possible to optimize their standard pavement section using TriAx geogrid.
As the City’s engineering consultant, you are being asked to evaluate alternate pavement cross-sections incorporating TriAx and report on the benefits. SpectraPaveTM software will be required to complete this design challenge. Use default inputs unless otherwise noted below.
