This up-to-date book covers both theoretical and practical aspects of pavement analysis and design. It includes some of the latest developments in the field, and some very useful computer software—developed by the author—with detailed instructions. Specific chapter topics include stresses and strains in flexible pavements, stresses and deflections in rigid pavements, traffic loading and volume, material characterization, drainage design, pavement performance, reliability, flexible pavement design, rigid pavement design, design of overlays, theory of viscoelasticity, theory of elastic layer systems, Superpave, pavement management systems, and an introduction to the 2002 Pavement Design Guide. For practicing engineers in the design of pavements and raft foundations.

4General Help  Jan 22, 2001
Overall, the book is helpful. It starts off discussing the general pavement types, design methods, and roads tests. Included in this section are the results of findings which, although not something I consider in everyday design, are items that are interesting enough to promote thought in my designs. All in all, I found almost all the chapters useful as they cover stresses in flexible and rigid pavements, rigid and flexible pavement design, drainage design, pavement performance, as well as a few other issues.

The only downfall are the two chapters covering the authors computer program. Most books have this problem, though, as technology quickly outgrows software, but enough information is given in relation to results of parametric studies to make these chapters worth the time needed to read through them.

All in all, a pretty good purchase.


1Textbook Review  Feb 27, 2012 By brittcolepatt
The textbook I received was in very bad shape even though the condition said "excellent" shape. I paid $93 dollars for what I thought was supposed to be a nice used book when it was terrible. I am very disappointed.


3Pavement Analysis & Design  Jun 25, 2011 By GradStudent
Even it is not up to date (the new ME-PDG), but it can be a good reference, but it contains detailed historical information and some methodolgies that no longer in use, it is better for undergraduate students.


5Good Book.  Jun 18, 2011 By Chico
I recomend it! excelent book. Complete and actual.
I bought it in USA and i was send to Brazil. It arrived in less then one week!


5The pavement design bible  Apr 09, 2010 By Juan Sanchez "A Realistic Person"
So what I can say about this book? It's simply the best. From very basic to advance pavement design, this book is full of theroetical concerns about the pavement design as well as empirical methods for special pavements. It also includes a software to simulate a road different layers behaviour when loads applied on top. Very useful and, in my opinion, a must-have for those engineers who work in this bussiness.
