Semi-rigid layer is widely used as the base in China. However, the structure has resulted in many premature distresses in asphalt concrete layer. In order to overcome the problem, the composite base is introduced which is composed by both flexible and chemically stabilized material. The internal stresses are calculated by linear multilayer elastic theory and then, a comparison of the stresses of asphalt pavement with semi-rigid base and composite base is provided. The result shows that the composite base composed by all, consisting of the asphalt treated layer, graded crushed stone and cement treated layer is more suitable structure to resist cracking and the structure also has good adaptability to heavy load.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
