Pavement Design

Pavement design refers to the process of creating durable road surfaces that can withstand traffic loads, weather conditions, and environmental factors. It involves selecting appropriate materials and determining the thickness and structure of the pavement layers to ensure they can support vehicles without cracking or deforming. A well-designed pavement enhances safety, reduces maintenance costs, and improves the overall lifespan of the roadway. Engineers use various methods and calculations to balance performance, cost, and environmental impact, ensuring that the final design meets the needs of both transportation and infrastructure sustainability.
