AASHTO DESIGN METHOD


Traffic
Traffic = 5.26 million ESALs
Effective Subgrade Resilient Modulus
MReff = 2085 psi
Materials
The section is a fill section, which requires that the final elevation of the pavement be 64
inches above the level of the existing subgrade. The pavement will be in Florida, so frost
is not a problem
