A road structure design or pavement design is crucial when constructing roads intended for public use. At GEO1, our comprehensive design reports include all necessary information to meet local regulatory requirements, such as subgrade drainage assessments and water table considerations.
For flexible pavement design, we analyze subgrade soil conditions and factor in the type and volume of traffic expected for the road. Subgrade conditions are typically assessed using a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test on the soil, while traffic data is obtained from traffic impact assessments or relevant local traffic studies.
We can collect subgrade soil samples from the proposed road site and perform CBR testing if needed. Additionally, we’ll collaborate with you to gather or select the most appropriate traffic data for an accurate and efficient pavement design.
Our team utilizes modern software to help optimize road construction by incorporating geogrid and geotextile solutions. These solutions can reduce the required thickness of gravel and asphalt, saving you time and resources.
If you’re planning a road project and need a flexible pavement design, contact GEO1.
We’re happy to discuss your project and how we can provide a cost-effective, durable solution.
