Mechanics Analysis of Flexible Base Pavement Structure

Abstract:

With the rapid development of traffic cause in our country, the operating requirement of driving load factors to pavement structure become higher and higher. The Semi-rigid base asphalt pavement structure exposed some defects and shortcomings, so the study of flexible base asphalt pavement structure is put on the agenda under the circumstances.Based on the research achievements at home and abroad of the existing asphalt pavement structure , choosing different elastic modulus and thickness to calculate and analyze the flexible base by ANSYS, gaining the law and trend of mechanics response (the vertical displacement and tensile stress) about pavement structure for the flexible base pavement of each layer foundation to provide the design reference.
