Pavement Design and Analysis

Pavement design and analysis involve creating and assessing road surfaces to ensure they can support traffic loads effectively while enduring weather conditions. The process includes selecting materials and thickness based on expected vehicle weight, soil properties, and environmental factors. Engineers use models to predict how these surfaces will perform over time, aiming to prevent failures like cracking or ruts. This ensures roads are safe, durable, and cost-effective, ultimately contributing to efficient transportation and infrastructure reliability.
