25、ng Ratio). The weaker the subgrade, the stronger the pavement is required to be. The design CBR should be obtained by measurement of the plasticity index or material description of the subgrade and by use of Table 1. For category IV only (see Table 2), a guide to subgrade strength may be estimated b

26、y using a simple field test given in Annex A (see also Table 1). This is intended to be an indicator of the strength of this layer. Tests are carried out after the initial compaction of the trimmed ground. 4.2 Evaluation of traffic The number of commercial vehicles using the area should first be obt

27、ained. Table 2 gives the categories of classification for the different applications. For category I and II vehicles, usage and the relationship of standard axles should be estimated in accordance with Table 3. As the type of commercial vehicles using the pavement will be mixed the probable daily am

28、ount of each type of vehicle should be determined in order to estimate the total number of standard axles per day. Design should take into account the cumulative traffic which the pavement has to carry, measured either in terms of the number of commercial vehicles per day (cv/d) or the number of sta

29、ndard axles. A 20 year design life should be generally applicable unless access for possible maintenance of the roadbase is likely to be difficult or expensive in which case a longer design life may be advisable. Where the pavement serves a finite area, zero growth in traffic is likely to be applica

30、ble. If calculated growth figures are available these should be used to ascertain the number of standard axles. It may be necessary to reset the pavers during the life of a pavement. This may be a result of displacement of the laying course sand and is not necessarily an indication of pavement failu

32、 ) NOTE 1 Table 1 is intended for use where the water table is 300 mm or more below formation level. In other conditions, specialist advice should be sought. NOTE 2 Effective subgrade drainage can have a significant effect on long-term CBR values and should be considered during the design procedure.

33、 Filter drains set at the appropriate level and discharging to a satisfactory outfall or main drainage system have been found to perform satisfactorily. NOTE 3 On sites where the CBR varies from place to place, the lowest recorded values should be used or appropriate designs should be provided for d

34、ifferent parts of the site using the lowest CBR recorded in each part. It may be possible to remove soft spots and therefore ignore those low CBR values which relate to the removed material. NOTE 4 Soft spots should be removed and replaced with suitable material. NOTE 5 Care should be exercised in t

35、he interpretation of site investigation data. In the case of soils whose strength is a function of their moisture content the in-service strength may be much lower than the recorded values. Care should also be exercised in using CBR values measured in summer as artificially high figures may be obtai

36、ned due to dryness of the soil. NOTE 6 Particular care should be exercised with subgrades having measured CBRs of 3 % or less. a The bracketed figures should be considered if these materials are likely to become saturated in service.

NOTE 2 In determining the site category, the

40、use of the surface of the pavement by any construction traffic should be assessed and used in traffic calculations.BS 7533-2:2001 BSI 06-2001 5 Table 3 Standard axles per commercial vehicle 4.3 Additional design factors The design method can be applied directly to the majority of applications. Howev

41、er, in some cases, such as those outlined in a) to b), unusual or particularly onerous loading effects or other conditions should be taken into account. a) Where relatively few standard axles are to be accommodated (less than 100 000) but where the loading is commonly applied by axle loads in excess

42、 of 7 000 kg, the pavement should be designed to withstand either 100 000 standard axles or three times the actual number of standard axles, whichever is the greater. b) Where channelized traffic on pavements in categories II and III (see Table 2) is expected, the traffic figures should be multiplie

43、d by three before carrying out the design, to allow for the increase in the concentrated application of loads at a particular point on the pavement. Normal lane widths in a highway do not generally constitute channelized traffic but channelized traffic can develop on any road, e.g. on steep hills or

44、 approaches to traffic signals, or entrances to parking areas, and can be induced by some traffic calming measures. If the application of this factor leads to traffic exceeding 0.5 msa, the design should be carried out in accordance with BS 7533-1. 4.4 Materials Materials whose successful performanc

45、e is dependent upon compaction being undertaken at critical moisture contents should only be used when engineering supervision can ensure that a stable construction can be achieved. Pavements in categories II and III (see Table 2) constructed over frost-susceptible soils should have an overall thick

46、ness of non frost-susceptible material of at least 450 mm. 5 Determination of construction thickness Having assessed the category of application (see Table 2) and the design CBR (see Table 1), the thickness of each pavement layer should be determined in accordance with Table 4 or Table 5.

48、ites only 6 Preparation and construction Detailed preparation of the subgrade should be in accordance with the recommendations in BS 7533-3. Where bituminous roadbase is used, it should be 20 mm nominal size dense bitumen macadam (DBM) conforming to BS 4987-1 with 100 pen binder, laid in two layers.

49、 Where cement bound material (CBM) is used it should be either CBM 1A or CBM 2 with minimum individual 7 day compressive strength of 4.5 N/mm 2 . 7 Overlay design When an existing part of a worn pavement is to be overlain, the design should be undertaken using a component overlay design method in accordance with the recommendations in BS 7533-1. When existing flexible roads are to be overlain, the design should be undertaken using a deflection-based method in accordance with the rec
