Research on Typical Structures of Asphalt Pavement in African Desert District

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on natural climate characteristics, road building conditions and traffic situations in African desert district, the problem of typical structure of asphalt pavement was studied by data investigation. Considering the principle of road structure and design, the optimal values of thickness and materials of structural layers were recommended. The research results establish a guideline for the design of asphalt pavement structures and provide a sufficient technology support to develop pavement infrastructures in African desert districts.
